Chapter 14 - Her Arrival

As she is driving her way towards the airport, Ja could vividly see the beautiful sun shines behind the mountainous part of the park where the movie "The Lord of the Rings" was shoot. She couldn't help but stopped her car at the sides, and admired the beautiful scenery she's amazed and mesmerized of.

"I still have time and Mj's arrival is still 2 hours yet, anyway."

She decided to get out of her car and entered at the park. She took some pictures of the big rocks like carefully displayed, designed, and sculptured by God in its nature being placed in the hilly part of the mountains. She took a selfie of herself too, with the green short grasses on the ground and the big rocks on her sides.

She then imagined the scenery of "The Lord of the Rings" where the "hobbits" and the elf "Legolas" have hidden from their enemies, in between these rocks. She admired so much the character of "Legolas" played in that movie. His long, straight and blond hair and handsome but wholesome built have made her fantasized of him as her "Knight and Shining Armor."

The mere reason why she got attracted with George at first was because he has almost the same long, straight and blond hair as Legolas did. Though the two men are nothing alike, she then fell in love more at George, who is now her husband, as she discovered more of his good characters.

After some time of fantasizing and mesmerizing the place around her, she then looked at her watch and sigh, "It's time to go fetch Mj!"

She then went out of the park and drove her car straight to the airport.

It's just five minutes before Mj's flight would arrive, when Ja arrived at the entrance of the airport. She then find her way to park her car nearby. Then quickly got out of her car and walked straight inside the airport to wait for Mj's arrival.

Not long after, she saw her friend Mj wearing a black leathered jacket with black pants and boots, pulling a black luggage bag, heading towards the exit, where Ja was waiting for her. She raised her hands to waive "Mj, my friend, over here!"

"Ja, my friend" with a sad face, acknowledging her friend, Mj quickly proceeded out towards her, and the two embraced each other.

Silence and tension took over them two. Ja, feeling her friend's sadness, just rubbed Mj's back to try to comfort her. She knew for a fact that her friend is in a deep sorrow.

Some tears fell out of Mj's eyes while releasing a big sigh. With her left hand, she wiped her tears away, pull away from thier embrace and said "Thank you."

"Let's go, head this way." Ja lead their way out.

Mj followed her silently. Ja then opened her car for Mj to get in, grabbed Mj's luggage bag and put it at her car's compartment. Seeing Mj has already seated in front, she then headed to open the car's door and seated at the driver's seat.

She gave a stare at her friend, and upon realizing her friend's silence, she quickly understood that her friend needed some time. So she stepped on the accelerator and drive smoothly.

While driving, she looked at the side road where they had just passed the park, where she was mesmerizing an hour ago. Originally, she planned on bringing Mj there, but seeing Mj's tired face while eyes closed, she didn't dare to bother her anymore. She then, continued to drive heading home, while listening to some songs in the FM radio of her car played softly.

She glanced at Mj again and upon realizing that she's already asleep, she then lowered the volume of the FM radio so it won't be disrupting her nap. She continued to drive smoothly.

"She must be so tired from the plane trip and from what she had gone through there in Belgium. My poor friend. It must be so hard for her though. She needed her rest. and she needed me her friend." Ja thought and exclaimed to herself.

At this, just seeing Mj's state, her facial expressions even when asleep, Ja, even if she didn't know the specific details yet of Mj's life at Belgium, she could really tell that her friend was experiencing a great hard blow of hardships in her life. And she needed to be there for her.

Not only that, she may be needing the help of George her husband too. So them couple would gladly help her friend in whatever way they could, to help Mj recover from the pain she's going through...

Just hoping for the best, as in reality, Mj could help herself majorly. She just need their guidance and their listening ears and understanding, moreso...
