"Welcome back, Mom!" I cried out as I ran towards my mother and threw my arms around her. My mother just laughed before returning my hug. She probably thought that I was happy to welcome her back, but she probably had no idea that at that moment that I felt like the savior that I had been waiting for for such a long time had finally arrived. With Bennett and my mother back, that meant that I no longer had to live alone with Raphael in the very large mansion.
"Welcome back," Raphael said from close to me. I hadn't realized when he had gotten so close to me, but I decided to ignore him. Hopefully, now that our parents were back, the two of us would no longer stray away from the right path, and we could live our lives peacefully and in harmony as stepbrother and stepsister.
"Did you have fun? All the photos that you sent me looked amazing," I said with excitement as I clapped my hands together.
