Chapter 45. Priceless Time
This is wonderful Ari....visiting Chianti with you is priceless. Wow, amazing panorama and the scenic
landscape.
Hannah''s POV
Ari knew that I loved visiting museums, so we hired a personal tour guide to visit as many museums in
the area. We started with Museau de Cristallo, it''s an art museum, then another art museum Museo
Civico. They have interesting pieces then we went to an art gallery called Arte a Colori. I''ve noticed that
Ari was bored so I announced that I am hungry, Ari jump out to the idea of having lunch. Our tour guide
suggested going to Ristorante Supra le Mura.
How''s the food, Hannah?
Great! savoring the vor of "Filo pastry stuffed with vegetables on a bed of gazpacho" as a starter.
Then "Risotto with wild rocket, and parmesan sauce and almond kes". For dessert, we have
"Hazelnut Bavarian cream with cocoa crumble and salty caramel" and wash it down with Chianti red. I
am so full Ari.
That''s the goal, I don''t want you to get hungry. It''s exhausting but it''s worth it. Seeing you in your happy
face is enough for me to be happy.
You''re so sweet Ari, yes, I am so happy exploring these ces with you.
I have been so busy with work, expanding, raising Aaron with you, I did not notice that I neglected you.
I am so sorry honey, I will make it up to you. I promised.
I understand your drive in working, I''ve been there done that. I did not even felt that you''ve neglected
me. I am busy too with our advocacy that you supported financially. I was hoping when Aaron left for
California, we have time for each other. This travel is one in our bucket lists and one by one we can
aplish what we wrote on it.

amazing view of a vineyard.

I know you''re so brave to choose me over "you know who"...I am so grateful you stayed with me, facing
the challenges on top of another challenge, I am so blessed to have you by my side because if you''re
not with me, I am still the old Ari, living with a wayward lifestyle, drunkard and good for nothing. You
changed me and I am d...so d I found you after that long absence. In the past, I drink a lot of
alcohol and I always look forward to sleeping so I can dream of you over and over again. That''s how I
filled my good-for-nothing life, dreaming of you every night is the only hope have. I woke up smiling
then I will start the day right but in the middle of the day, my grouchiness will start. My mood will
change at night, thinking that I will sleep dreaming of you, makes my life go on and hope that someday,
we will meet again. That was my life without you. I detest that life.
I am d I choose you Ari over "you know who". At that time, I was tempted to choose him but I felt it
will be unfair because I don''t love him, I love you and he knew that. I have been honest with him from
the very beginning. That''s why he walked away.
It''s good to talk about this, we haven''t had this conversation about him. I am so d, I agree with his
invite. Do you know that this is his fourth invite? The first invite came after we got married he suggested
having our honeymoon in Italy, all expenses paid. I declined because I was so jealous of him.
Oh my God! stop fretting Ari, you''re talking nonsense. He has a lot to offer but I don''t love him, I love
you. I am willing to stay by your side facing all the challenges of being married to you. It''s my choice,
Ari.
Ari embraced Hannah so tight and kissed her affectionately.
You''re my life, Hannah, you''re my only one. Thank you for staying by my side. Whatever challenges we
are going to face or facing right now, as long as we are together, we can get through it because of our
love and devotion to each other. I love you so much.
I love you too hubby!
