  After his return to Canada, he searched for her at the condo unit only to be told that she has moved

out months ago. He also tried Ashburnham Place but it was already sold too. His only hope then was 

Donnelly's email. He was praying for a miracle that this email is still active as he told him before that 

he will be stationed abroad  for a new job. He waited for weeks until one day when his phone 

rang, with Donnelley on the other end.

" Q! I'm glad you made it buddy! We were so worried about you after we watched the news! I

" It was a miracle that I am still here talking to you right now. Before we chat, where is she?" I went to 

the condo and her place in Ashburnham, and she's not there. "

" Allison is actually here with me right now and she wants to talk to you. I think you better ask her that

 question coz I have no idea where Elle is right now.

" Kerr! Oh my God! You're alive! Just like what Elle told me!" Allison was quite hysterical so he is 

finding it hard to understand what she is saying to him on the phone. Allison was crying and 

incomprehensible as she narrated how Elle kept her hope that he will be found safe and sound so he 

can be present at their wedding. When he failed to arrive, she cried for days but still waited for 

months for his return.

" Allison... stay focused and please calm down. I am now here but Elle is nowhere to be found. Do you

 know where she is?"

" I'm sorry Kerr. I'm just so happy to know that you're alive. Yes, I know where she is. She went back to

 the Philippines to be with her Dad. But the problem is, I don't have her address. The last time I got an 

email from her was 2 months ago. She has a small gallery in the city."

" Do you remember the name of the city? "

" Hmmm. I can spell it for you. Grab a pen and I'll spell it for you."

" M..I.S..I..B..I..S bay. That's the name of the area where she lives right now."

" Thank you Allison. I'm sorry if I'm rushing you. I need to get there as soon as possible. Waiting is not 

part of my plan anymore. We waited for so long and I want to see here now. We'll talk to you guys 

once I got there." Kerr googled her name in that area and bingo! He found her gallery address. He did 

not waste any more time, indeed. He took the next available flight to Legazpi City.
