William raised his head with a look of astonishment and widened his eyes in disbelief. He could no longer be bothered by the tears and mucus still flowing down his face. Dumbfounded, he spluttered, "Cheyenne? Are you really Cheyenne? Or am I hallucinating again?"
Unable to contain her emotions any longer, Cheyenne leaped toward William and hugged him tightly, ignoring the stench of his body. She cried, "Dad, it's me. It's really me! I… I'm here to take you home."
William finally reacted and realized that he wasn't hallucinating at all. His daughter had really appeared!
He couldn't find her no matter how hard he had tried, and now, the daughter he thought that he would never see again in this life finally returned!
With tears streaming down his face, William held Cheyenne tightly in his arms and bawled loudly. "Cheyenne, I really know my mistakes! I won't do it again. I won't lose you again!"
