I will see you in my Dreams novel Chapter 43

The next day's schedule is to visit the island of Ischia, a ferry ride from Naples.

Ischia is a volcanic island located about 17 miles to the southwest of Naples, Italy, on the western edge of the Gulf of Naples. This mountainous island is a popular tourist attraction because of its rugged natural beauty and numerous thermal spas. The island produces both red and white wines. This is one on Ari and Hannah's bucket lists.

They also visited Aragonese castle. There are two towers to control enemy fleets' movements. It connected the rock to the island with a stone bridge instead of the prior wood bridge and fortified the walls in order to defend the inhabitants against the raids of pirates.

It's great to see this castle, it's history... Hannah said

Yes, it is...Stanley responded. Remember the Castello di Amorosa, your favorite sanctuary in Napa Valley?

Huh! you remembered Stanley! Hannah said.

I do remember that Hannah....you talked a lot about it when I visited you in Cambodia.

Ari was silent, listening to Stanley and Hannah's interactions.

Maybe, you can stay with us for more days so we can visit a lot of castles here in Rome. I know that Ari can't stay that long because of work, Gracia said.

Ohhh, that is so sweet Gracia but I can't, maybe we can go back some other time. Hannah responded then looking at Ari.

Well...I have more time now to travel with my wife, Gracia, thank you for the invite. We will come back with more days to spend on our vacation. Hannah loves Italy!

I will be looking forward to that day Ari, Gracia responded.

Ari's POV

I don't know that Hannah loves Castello di Amorosa, I should pay attention to her. I know she enjoyed Napa Valley but not that Castle. Now, I am feeling insecure. But, No, Hannah is mine, only mine. Stanley is just being friendly and attentive to her because of his feelings for her in the past. I am glad that Hannah chooses me not Stanley. I have to make it up for her.

Stanley's POV

I am glad that Ari finally gives in to my invitation. This is my fourth. How I want to hug and kiss Hannah but I can't, she belongs to Ari. I still love her. I would like to teach my heart to love Gracia, she's always there for me. She loves me. I hope she'll not notice my staring and side glimpses to Hannah. I know Ari notices that I know that he will call my attention later. I always admired their love for each other.

Gracia's POV

Hannah is so sweet and lovely. I admired her courage and perseverance to stayed with Ari despite all the challenges they had. I suspect that Stanley falls for her in the past, the way he looks at her. He doesn't look at me that way he looked at Hannah. I will observe more and learn Hannah's qualities. That way, I may be able to let Stanley love me more.

Honey, you love gardens... let's explore La Mortella and Villa Ravino, the botanical garden, located in Forio-Citara Bay....how's that! Ari said.

Love that Honey! Hannah responded.

We can visit the famous Villa Columbaia, there's a park there that we can walk around, drop by in the museum and art exhibition.

That is so great Gracia, I always love art exhibitions and museums. You know, Ari and I walks every afternoon since Aaron moved to California. He spends more time with me now. He works short hours at his office, so I made it a point that I am home when he gets home.

That's good to know that my workaholic cousin is paying attention to his lovely wife.

Arggh, you put a knife in my heart Stanley. That is very painful cousin...

I am just stating the facts, you make a lot of killing at work, you expanded the hacienda, add more business to the mix, not only in Tarlac but also in Gilroy. I admired your skill but you have to check your priorities now.

I hear you, Stanley, that's why we are here....my priority now is my wife. Got it, Stanley!

I hear you Ari! I am so glad and happy for both of you!
