Chapter 21: Encounter Between Father and Daughter

THIRD PERSON POV
"Hey let's go, the plane might fly without us." Elizabeth Amore Aberra, Eleanor's mother, said that she was now unloading their luggage from the van.
"Hon, we still have 15 minutes before the plane leaves so calm down, you might trip if you rush." His wife said while helping her to unload their luggage while Eleanor took Fiorenza from her arms, her only princess who was now clinging very tightly to her mother's neck as if she didn't want to be separated from her, Percy, on the other hand, was just on the side while wearing a mask and his forehead was wrinkled again because he was bored.
"Let's go, they will take care of our things," Ethan said and grabbed his wife's waist before they walked together into the airport and immediately went to their plane. Their things were brought by the staff at the airport and he was the one who placed them on top of the seats assigned to them.
When they all sat down, they just relaxed and there weren't too many people because the number of passengers was limited. Eleanor looked at the watch on her left hand and saw that within 5 minutes the plane would be flying in the air, so she leaned back properly in her seat and adjusted the position of her daughter Fia on her lap who was now sleeping.
"For all passengers, please be ready as we will take off in five minutes and wait for our special passenger, he'll be here in five minutes for now, just sit in your allotted seat and relax," The flight attendant said.
Eleanor didn't move anymore and touched her daughter's head before closing her eyes, two minutes passed and suddenly a man in a suit entered, without emotion he looked inside and when he saw his seat in front, he walked there with no trace of emotion in his eyes, everyone became silent except for the Aberra family who now all closed their eyes as if they wanted to sleep and were oblivious to their surroundings.
But Percy's eyes were open and he just looked at the man who passed by the side of his seat, he knew who it was but he kept quiet and let the new man sit in the seat in front of him.
Percy didn't bother to call his dad as he was walking because he hated him for hurting his mother. Yes, he is aware of everything that transpired between his mother and father. He was present when his mother sobbed while watching the news. He was also present when his mother was ill. Percy promised himself that when he is older, he will make his father regret what he did to his mother. However, right now, all he wants is to avoid his father.
Percy just closed his eyes pretending he didn't see his father. While Eleanor is now in a deep sleep.
When everything was in order, the plane gradually took off, and all the passengers on the plane just went to sleep because they knew it would take them a long time to get to the Philippines.
While Adam Reigo, who was in the front, just crossed his legs while leaning back in his chair, he knew that there were eyes following him while he was walking, and he could feel the looks as if they were angry and it was very cold while those eyes looked at his back until he sat down, but he just let it go because he didn't care.
Everyone inside the plane was asleep but it didn't take long for Fia to wake up and now she slowly got down on her mother's lap, before she rubbed her eyes and looked around.
Suddenly, she walked away from her mother's place and walked until she reached the front, just as she was facing Adam's chair who now had a wrinkled forehead while closing his eyes, Fia watched him intently and seemed to be memorizing Adam's whole face.
It came right in front of Adam and immediately touched Adam's nose, Adam felt it but he just pretended to be asleep and was waiting for what Fia would do next.
"Wow, we have the same nose," Fia said weakly while running her little index finger on Adam's nose.
"And brother also has the same face as you, why is that." It's like Fia doesn't know anything, Fia asked Adam who now opened his eyes, When he saw the girl with round eyes that were the same as his, and the child's cheek that seemed to be inherited from the woman who was familiar with him, it was as if he had slipped out of his seat.
Fia's eyes widened when she saw Adam's eyes open, because of fear and shame she immediately puffed up her two cheeks and smiled at Adam.
"Hey, baby girl what do you need?" Adam asked her sparingly.
Adam shook his head as he remembered the woman he loved on how the little girl puffed out her two cheeks.
"Hmm...nothing mister," Fia answered Adam, which made Adam touch her chin that made Fia look at Adam straight in his eyes.
"Your beauty is so unique baby girl." Adam Reigo calmly uttered.
"Of course, mom also said that since she claimed that we have a certain beauty that no one else has," Fia answered proudly and even smiled widely.
"Your mom must be lucky to have you." Adam weakly said and let out a deep sigh.
"Mister, can I go back to my mom? She might wake up and find me.” Fia said, Adam just nodded at her.
Fia left silently and came back to where her mom was before sitting beside her mom and hugging her tightly.
TIME PASSED and everyone got out of the Plane, the Aberra family was the first to get out, while Adam Reigo stayed in his seat because he was waiting for everyone to get out, he didn't want to get crowded with people because he thinks It's just annoying, especially since his head gets hot quickly over small things if he doesn't like it.
"Mom, do you know that I talk to a man, a man that has the same face as brother Percy," Fia tells Eleanor a story and they all walk through the wide airport to exit.
"I know Fia, how many times do you need to repeat it." Her mother laughed at her promise because s was repeating her story over and over again.
While on the other hand, Adam stood up and started to get out of the plane and got off, he put shades on his eyes before walking, and when he got to the middle of the airport, he just passed the woman who had her back while carrying a child, that seemed familiar to him but he ignored it and just continued walking out of the Airport.
"MISTER!" That voice made him stop, he immediately looked behind him and saw the girl he was talking to inside the plane earlier, she was smiling at him and waving, she was a bit far from him and he couldn't see the woman who was lifting the girl because she was looking on the other side of the airport.
He smiled sparingly at the girl even though it was not in his vocabulary to smile at people, but he had this feeling that he felt very light when he saw the girl. He turned back again and continued his walk out of the Airport.
"Princess, don't be silly, okay, just wait a little while, your older brother and grandparents will come," Eleanor said calmly to her daughter who had been moving in her arms for a while and calling someone earlier that she didn't see because she was just looking at the way her eldest son and her mom and dad went to accompany the son to the bathroom.
"Mom, I saw him again!" Her daughter shouted happily, she saw how happy it made her smile, she didn't know who her daughter was talking about, so she was just this happy as if she forgot what happened to her yesterday in the states. Eleanor thinks that whoever it is thanking him because the vitality of her princess has returned to him.
"Mom, look, they're now here," Fia said while pointing the little index finger to his older brother and grandparents who are close to us. When Percy, Elizabeth, and Maximus got close, they immediately started to leave the airport and get in the same car to go to the hacienda,
When they got on board and started to travel, Fia couldn’t stop talking to her brother and now his face was wrinkled because he knew who Fia was talking about, it looks like he saw his father earlier so he won’t wonder why his sister is happy.
When they arrived at the hacienda, they saw how excited their workers were and they were about to congratulate them on their return, when they all got down, Fia didn't even lift her mommy and immediately ran to the flowers on the side of the main door of the hacienda, there is no denying that that flower attracts attention.
"Welcome home!" All their workers said while smiling at them including the maids inside the hacienda when they entered. They are very comforting to young Fia because every hacienda servant she passes by greets her.
