"Oh, by the kitsune lord, it is you, Elysia... I-I'm so sorry." My father apologised as he realised what he had just said was to his own daughter.
"It really is you, our daughter." My mother held out her hand, beckoning me to come closer. I quickly knelt down and hugged both of them.
"Mum! Dad! You're actually alive!" I cried out, no longer holding back any of my emotions. I never thought that I would get to see my parents ever again in my life, but here they are in my very own arms.
"We can't believe you are alive too. We had surely thought you were killed all those years ago." My father referenced the time when I had to run away from our secluded cabin, which ultimately landed me homeless in human territory.
"No, I managed to run away." There was so much that I wanted to say and tell them. How I survived after running away, how my future wife saved me and all the crazy things we have been through.
