The mother was busy trimming her pot of hibiscus when an unfamiliar car stopped in front of her home. She straightened up and narrowed her eyes, trying to see who it was.
The passenger side door opened, revealing a pair of long legs. She squinted her eyes, trying to see the person clearly but the sun was already out and she made use of the light from her house to help her trimming her hibiscus.
"Catherine?" her mother choked out.
"Mother," Ryn greeted politely and went to hug her mother tightly. She closed her eyes as she tightened the embrace. She missed her mother so much. It had been months for her to meet her mother face-to-face.
"Jeremy?" her mother choked out when she noticed another person approaching her.
"Hello, aunty," Jeremy greeted politely, holding the basket of fruits.
"What… what are you two doing here?" her mother seemed to be still surprised with the appearance of these two right in front of her. Why were they here?
