บท 336: Going Home

Six hours later.

After Caroline wakes up from her sleep, it's already early evening.

She immediately placed a call to her son Gabriel. "Hello, son! How are you doing there in the funeral homes?" she asked.

"Everything is good here at my end, Mom," replied Gabriel. "Did you have a good afternoon sleep?" he asked.

"Yes, I have..."

"Have you eaten dinner yet?" he asked again.

"Not yet. But I will go downstairs to the restaurant and eat dinner in a while," she replied. "I will also go to the front desk and inquired if there still a schedule for the bus returning to the city so that I can be with you and your father tonight," she said.

"No need to rush coming here, Mom. Just stay there in the hotel tonight, then tomorrow morning you can check-out from the hotel and come back here in the funeral homes so that we can catch our flight going back to Manila in the afternoon," he suggested.

"How about you?" she asked.
