It was a sunny Saturday morning when Mom and Dad visited. I, Hafsa, and Carla had previously been struggling in the kitchen, providing some of Mom and Dad's favorite foods.

Mama watched me from top to bottom, before then hugged me tightly. "I'm glad to see you back, I'm sorry I couldn't do much to look for you," said Mom, stretching her arms.

From the glint in her eyes, I could tell that Mama Maloree was sincere in her apology. I believe Valter's parents are also worried about my situation, it's just that they didn't want to come clean early considering Valter's condition at that time, even though they live in a completely transparent era. Their thoughts are still based on the honor and good name of the family. As strong as possible they will cover up any family defects from being known to the public.
