"Miss Violet!!" Bob threw his spatula aside, leaving everything he was working on the moment he saw me. He hurriedly ran over, rubbing his eyes along the way. He couldn't seem to believe what he was seeing, wondering if this was his hallucination.
As he got closer to me, he waved his hand skeptically in front of me to make sure that I was real. Seeing it, I laughed, as it was the exact reaction Lisa had when she saw me just now. She also couldn't seem to believe her eyes, as I suddenly appeared out of nowhere after being gone for weeks.
"Bob," I called, and another gasp went out of his mouth.
His jaw dropped open when he realized that I was, in fact, not a hallucination, using his palm to cover his wide-open mouth. He paced around, fanning his eyes to prevent tears from falling.
"Miss Violet... it's you," he said, his eyes welling with tears, "You're back."
