"Brother Hendrick?!" Stella gasped. She had to blink twice to ensure she wasn't seeing things.
"I was just gone for a few months and the two of you are already hiding things from me. I feel sad and hurt that you both are excluding me," Hendrick said but Stella ignored all that. She was simply so happy to see her brother after worrying about him for months.
She ran to him and gave him a tight hug.
"I missed you, Brother," Stella looked up and was surprised to see an elated and flabbergasted Hendrick. He was even slightly embarrassed probably because she ran into his arms. All sorts of emotions were on his face as he stared at her. She smiled and gave him another squeeze before he finally gave her a tight hug.
