LEYSA'S POV
I just finished my live interview. And they all loved my honesty and bravery to face the issues I chose to leave behind before. Oh well, we are all coming to this point that they all call --growing up... and it is good, right? Hmm.
I was about to get into my car when someone called me that made me stop for a second.
"Leysa, honey." Calm but with longing voice behind me. I don't want to turn around but I need to. I need to face them now, to have a better and happy life tomorrow.
I slowly turned around, and that seemed to be a signal for my mother to hug me tightly. Yes, she is the one who called my attention. I miss her, I miss this kind of hug, a Mom's hug. I miss these hugs then until now. So I couldn't stop crying and hugging her. Dad also approached, and he touched my face, murmuring words, I longed to hear.
"I'm sorry for all the wrong things we've done to you. And I hope it's not too late to correct our wrong decisions. Come back to us, my princess." My dad said. I just smiled at him as a response.
I came home that night with some happiness and peace in my heart, because I got to talk with my parents, and fixed everything we needed to fix, which would have been fixed since then if I had not been swallowed up by anger and revenge. But then, everything is slowly falling in its right places, little by little I am now moving forward.
Even Grandpa and my Mom already talked. They fixed all their misunderstandings before and I saw how happy my grandfather was. That is what he really hopes for to hug his beloved daughter again.
