Reuniting with his family ended up a little bit different than expected.
It was almost as if they had expected him to arrive home today. They looked over at him when he entered the mansion and hugged him tightly.
"Took you long enough," His father said, while his voice cracked.

He had a complicated expression on his face and it was evident that he felt a little complicated.
For a few seconds, he remained in the same position, until Sabrina reached his side. She pressed his hands gently and smile straight at him.
"Go for it," Sabrina mumbled, her voice filled with gentleness and something else that caused Nial's right eyebrow to raise slowly.
