Chapter 86

While Ashley was crying her a.s.s out while slumped on the bathroom floor, she suddenly realizes that she really doesn't have any right to get upset or angry at Tanaga.  Also, why should she stress herself over something like that? She would just get old quickly and ugly, for what? She then immediately stopped crying and washed her face.

While she was drying her face, she began talking to her reflection in the mirror, just like a lunatic. 

"Hey, girlfriend! Don't be stupid and stop day-dreaming.  You are flying too high!  Just because he already took your precious pearl.  And the flag of the Philippines had fallen already, that doesn't mean everything is over.!"

She then remembers what General Macarthur had said back during wartime.

[1]  [The old soldier doesn't die; he just fades away. It must be remembered what the law was not obeyed. In a battle, victory is no subst.i.tute ... The soldier prays for peace, as they too will be pitied and eventually injured. An old age can cause the body to weaken, but when it is dull and unable to fight ... the wrinkle is the soul and the will. So do not retreat .. Need to jump in and discuss other paths.] 

"Remeber that girl, that's a significant factor if you wanted to fight and win!  Nothing is certain in this life on earth, but an opportunity is always available… Therefore, Fighting!" She exclaimed at her reflection in the mirror.

Once she was sure that she looks alright, she then prepared to go out and face the enemy. ' War is what you want! All right, this is from 'Waray' generation and n.o.body in my family back out! I'll show you that you can't use me and play with me. I will use you to reach my destination on time. ' She then opened the door while plastered the most serious face she could conjure.

The only problem was there's not even a shadow of Tanaga anywhere in sight.  She checked around if all of their things were still there. However, after checking around, she found that all their belongings were gone, and the only thing left was her purse and a cellphone on top of the bed.

Ashley sadly picked up the cellphone and put it inside her purse.  As she was walking out of the cabin, she couldn't help herself, and she turned around and looked back then looked around inside the whole cabin.  She wanted to remember that inside that cabin, she once felt and treated like a princess, even if it's only for a short time. 

After taking a deep breath and let out a sigh!  She turned around and ultimately went out of the cabin towards the future that's awaiting her outside in the real world called j.a.pan.

Ashley runs across one of the crews of the Yacht, who was on the way to inform her that they have docked already and also to let her know that Tanaga was long gone.  "However, he did leave a car for you. This way, you have a way to get back home. He just went and got a ride with that person that came to fetch him.

"One more thing!  All of your belongings are all inside the trunk. We took it upon ourselves to take it down while you were at the restroom." The crew explained to Ashley, who had a sad-looking face while her voice was breaking.

Ashley didn't show that she suddenly sadden, and she felt a thinge of pain in her heart.  Instead, she put on a sweet smile to show the crew.  "Thank you, everyone!  I would never forget all of you.  I hope that someday we would see each other once again"  She then stretches her hands so she could shake everyone's one before she leaves.

At first, the crews were hesitant to accept the handshake, for she's the wife of their boss.  However, a while, they all decided to take her hands and thanked her in return. 

"Thank you so much ma'am, if it weren't for you, we would not be able to have a short visit with our family back in the Philippines until our contract was over.  That's why we are all grateful for your kindness.  May G.o.d bless you!"  Said all the crews in unison.

 Ashley only merely smiled, then continued and walked down the gangway toward the vehicle that was waiting.  The one that Tanaga had left to take her where her future might be expecting.

Meanwhile, grandmother Hanada was busy preparing for the couple's arrival.  She asked the chef to make all kinds of delicacies for them to eat when they arrived. 

However, unknown to her that Ashley was not the one with Tanaga coming home.  Instead, he asked his bodyguard Tiny to take care of Ashley and take her to his condo unit.

Therefore, grandmother Hanada was stunned to see the person who is now in front of her was none other than Ohani Yamaguchi. Instead of her new grand-daughter-in-law, Ashley.

'Ohani san, will you excuse us for a moment, please!  There's just something important that I needed to discuss with my grandson, ok!"  She almost dragged Tanaga towards his office. 

As soon as they were inside, grandmother Hanada quickly locked the door and smacked Tanaga hard on his head to knock some sense out of him.  She then began her inquisition rapidly without taking a breather.

"Speak!  Tell me what did you do with Ashley, and where did you take her?   Why is she not back with you?  Where is she?!  Did you leave her in the Philippines?  Tell me?!" Grandmother Hanada yells at Tanaga loudly while her eyes were bulging out of the sockets.  

Tanaga was giving his grandmother a dirty look as well because it was the very first time in his life that his grandmother Hanada ever smacked him on his head.  And it was hard too.

"Grandmother, how am I supposed to reply to your questions when you already bombarded me.  One at the time and I will answer all your questions!" Tanaga helped his grandmother and guided her to sit on one of the sofas.

"Grandma, there is something you needed to know about Ashley and I..."
