Day Seventy…
~~*****~~
Mr. Hiroshi bore witness to the heartwarming reunion between Jane and Hanabi. The elderly man couldn't help but feel immense joy at seeing the two women embrace once more after such a long separation.
He had observed the deep bond that had formed between Hanabi and Jane during their childhood. Now, as adults, he held hope that the three of them, including Abigail, would forge an even stronger connection than before.
"Cough! Cough!" Mr. Hiroshi theatrically cleared his throat, drawing the attention of the four women. "Can I join you, ladies? I could use a hug from my eldest daughter too. I've missed her dearly," he added with a playful tone. His words brought an even brighter atmosphere to the room, eliciting warm smiles from the four women.
"Pa!" Jane traced her steps toward her father and gave him a warm hug.
