I never thought the ending will be on her. I thought she was the one who got killed in the war. But she survived. Although she had a limp, she survived. Of all the characters I remember, I think she's the only one who made it through.
She got a long letter from Skip. He told her he believed he loved her. But what else is there to do now? He was in Malaysia, she's in the States. And Skip has a Filipina common-law-wife living in Cebu and he has two offsprings there.
Skip also wrote a letter to Eddie Aguinaldo in the Philippines asking him to find about about his family there. He believes he will be a little less worried if he knows that Eddie Aguinaldo will sometimes pay them a visit to know if everything is all right. That's the last thing he could do.
At this point, Skip had no choice. He was left with no choice but to stay in Malaysia.
The last sentence of the book:
All will be saved.
