Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1823

Raeleigh still remembered that at that time when Jacky asked her to go to see Santiago. It meant that in times of crisis, Jacky was still thinking about Santiago.

Normally, a person would stop thinking about someone if he or she does not see the person for a period of time, but Jacky was different.

Jacky conducted himself in a way that not many people could understand.

Raeleigh and Santiago stayed for dinner and decided to spend the night in Waverly Village. They even bought their flight tickets to Capital City for the next day.

Before leaving, Santiago decided to climb onto the roof of the hospital in Waverly Village to get a bird's eye view of the village. When Raeleigh found him and saw him standing on the edge of the roof, she asked him, "What are you doing here?"

Santiago turned around and looked at Raeleigh. The corner of his mouth moved a little. Raeleigh was stunned when she saw a refreshing look on his face. Santiago had changed a lot compared to previous years. Though he spent the majority of those years lying in bed, he had changed a lot.

Raeleigh kept her eyes on him as she walked towards him. She reached out and touched his slim face. "Sometimes, I really hope that this is all just a dream."

Santiago reached out for Raeleigh's hand and kissed it. Then, he pulled her into his arms, turned her around and hugged her from behind.

Raeleigh wanted to push Santiago away, but she knew he would not let her go so easily.

Santiago said, "I'm curious to know how much you love me. Is it less than a thousandth of your love for him?"

Raeleigh was stunned for a moment, but she quickly composed herself. "Santiago, we...."

"No, don’t say it. I don't want to hear it. If we are destined to be lonely, then I would rather spend the rest of my life with you, travelling the world to see the hustle and bustle of everyday life."

Raeleigh stood there holding Santiago's hands. They were all dressed up today. The night wind blew gently. It blew away the past filled with love and hate.

Raeleigh stood there without answering. She held Santiago's hand and looked down at the village below, where there's all these people coming and going as she recalled the past. He was the only one who had no barriers. Everything he did, he did it for her. He had never stopped loving her, but he was a little late. If he had appeared earlier in her life, maybe things would have been different.

This relationship was so absurd and Raeleigh knew it. She could not seem to bring herself to meet him halfway.

She could not even bring herself to hold his hands.

"Santiago! I..."

"Hush!"

Santiago whispered in Raeleigh's ear. Raeleigh knew he did not want to hear her words.

They had been sleeping on the same bed for so long, but they'd never crossed the line. They knew it would take a long time, but neither one could forget that their relationship started off as in-laws.

The wind continued to blow. Santiago then asked Raeleigh, "Can you sing?"

Raeleigh shook her head. "No."

"I'll teach you."

Raeleigh turned her head slightly to look at Santiago. "Alright."

Santiago smiled and started singing. His deep voice was like an everlasting song that lingered that night. He kept his arms around Raeleigh's body the entire time.

"We seem to have met somewhere before. Do you remember?

I think it was right around spring.

I walked by.

But I did not look back.

I remembered.

And I nearly forgot!

We seem to have met somewhere before. Do you remember?

I remembered it was right around summer, where the flowers were in full bloom.

I was singing.

Not to myself.

But I remember...

Still I nearly forgot.

We seem to have met somewhere before. Do you remember?

I think it was during one sunset in autumn.

You were so beautiful that I dare not talk to you.
