Orabela sprinted towards her grandmother and wrapped her arms tightly around her, burying her face into the comforting embrace. She held on, her heart easing from the momentary burden of missing her so deeply. After a long moment, she pulled away, her eyes brimming with affection.
"Grandma, I missed you so much," Orabela said, her voice tinged with a hint of longing. "Why did it take so long for you to come back?"
Lady Agatha smiled warmly, her eyes twinkling with fondness as she stroked Orabela's hair. "Oh, my dear, forgive me," she said softly, her tone filled with regret. "I ended up traveling the world with some old friends of mine—an adventure I hadn't expected to last so long. And after that, I went to visit your aunt to spend some time there." She gave a small chuckle as if recounting fond memories.
