When the morning comes the two lovers knew that a long day was ahead of them, but for now they just basked in the feeling to be in each other arms. Becky wake up feeling soft kisses peppered on her face, smiling she knew today gonna be a good day, she planned to take her mom to her brother and father, she hopes that freen gonna talk with her parent herself to resolve everything between them.
They take their breakfast with becky mom’s talking joyously, joking around and teasing each other, when becky’s mom comment that she was impatient for their marriage and to be grandmother the two girls blushed furiously avoiding eyes contact, after their goodbye they went in different ways freen in a coffee shop where she was having a meeting with her parent, and becky to Richie condo where he and his father was waiting.
Freen was in front the coffee shop, whatever would happening here today would affect her whole relationship with her parent, but she know even if doesn’t work out with them, she would like to stay close to her siblings.
She saw them sitting in the corner clearly deep in thoughts holding each other hands almost like they were comforting each other, she clear her throat to make her presence known, when they turned to look at her and involuntary smile was shown on their face.
‘Hello sit down freen.’’ Her father gestured her to the chair in front of them.
‘’So…’’ she started, looking at them she clearly saw the sadness on their eyes, but everything would depend on their side of the story.
‘‘Hmm yeah so, I don’t know where to start.’’ Her father mumbled but she she clearly heard them.
‘‘Started by the beginning.’’ She said coldly to them, her parents winced at her tone, but say nothing about it thinking about what sam tell them the previous day.
So they started to explaining to her everything without leaving any details, she can hear regret and feel the hurt in their voice when they relate the whole story, she saw how her mother was trembling when she tell how she felt all this years, the guilt on her father voice when he take all the blame on him, when they finished they were in tears during the process her mother takes her hands on her own rubbing softly, she saw the happiness when she didn’t reject her action even though the tears who continuously falling from her eyes.
She didn’t really how to feel about it she understand that they believe she was dead, that when they found the truth they tried to protect her but in vain, she understand that they felt that she was safe with the waraha, but for her she felt like they abandoned her, why didn’t they just tell her the truth that for her safety it was better for her to stay with the waraha?
‘‘Freen i know you feel like we abandoned you, and we understand the pain you feel trough the years, but I want you to know that your mother want to tell you everything from the start, it was me who stop her every time. Aside you she was the most suffering crying to sleep every night thinking I didn’t hear her, passing a amount unhealthy time looking at you picture blaming herself even in her dream she keep crying murmuring you name. So please if you want to blame someone, blame me even if at that time I believe I did my best to protect all of you, I see know that I could do thing differently.’’ He completely utterly defeated, he didn’t want his wife paid for his past mistakes.
‘‘Listen I don’t hate you, but I need sometime, I understand your side but …’’ she didn’t know how to explain herself, she guessed that she was still hurt over it.
‘‘We understand take your time, we’re not going anywhere ever again, so when you are ready you know where to find us.’’ She nodded bid her goodbye and leave she needed guidance so she goes to the only that she know she will get that.
The reunion of the Armstrong went smoothly, patricia can’t believe the chance that she to has to have her whole family together again, she excuse herself to Robert, kiss Richie face multiple time telling him how much she loves and missed him.
As for becky, her father and herself decide to take a walk because they have a lot to discuss, and it was a opportunity for her mom and Richie to catch up.
They walked during fifteen minutes in a absolutely silence until they saw a park in front of them, they sits on the bench looking at the scenery, they saw parent playing with their child laughing and carefree, it makes them a bit nostalgic.
‘‘Dad I’m sorry.’’ Becky decide to break the silence she was under the impression that her dad still feel guilty about everything.
‘‘What? What do you mean you’re sorry? You didn’t do anything.’’ Surprised by what she said, for him it was him who should apologize not her.
'‘Dad don’t pretend you didn’t suffer because of me, you had already so much on your plate and … and I’m aware I didn’t help. I tried to send you in jail for fuck sake, I was starting to hate you for something who was beyond your control but I admit even if I pretend to hate you in my heart I always loved you dad.’’ She paused it was now or never she would lay all her cards on the table, she would never pretend never again to feel some type of way.
'‘Dad when I learned that you was dead, I feel like a piece of me was ripped apart I was feeling guilty because in my head you were gone because of my action, I nearly lost myself and if it wasn’t for freen I don’t really now the path I would choose. But I’m grateful really grateful, you’re here now with no more secret between us and I want you to make me a promise if something like that happened in the future don’t try to bear it by yourself don’t hide it from us, we’re a family and we’re supposed to be here for each other no matter what. I love you dad I really do dad.’’ Robert was moved by what becky was saying and he knew she meant it what she said, tears were brimming in his eyes he can’t help but hug her daughter in his arms sighing in content finally he was having hi little princess back in his arms, he keep saying how sorry he was, how much he loves and missed her again again.
They decide to go back to Richie to have a lunch together in family the lunch was spend catching up, laughing joking around, everyone was grateful that they were finally reunited.

‘‘Come sit here baby and tell us what’s bothering you.’’ Her mom gestured to the couch she sit down sighing rubbing her face, tired she needs to sort it out the earlier was the better so she can move on on her life.
‘‘Mom dad, my real parent are still alive and I have a brother ands sister.’’ They looked at her shocked, not knowing how to react.

‘‘Tell us everything.’’ So freen began to telling them, the whole to the beginning to the end through the story, she saw sadness, then anger following by worry finally relief.
They were having mixed feeling, they were glad that the culprit were on the road to be arrested, that chris was already in jail, they were proud of what their daughter accomplished, but they can’t having a nagging feeling that it wasn’t really to forgive her parents was bothering her.
'‘So it’s the whole story and I don’t really know what to do now.’’
‘‘Freen are you sure you’re not already forgive them? I’m under the impression that it’s something else that annoyed you.’’ Her mother said truthfully.
Sighing with defeat freen knew they saw right through her.
‘‘Yeah you’re right, I’m afraid that if I forgive them and give them a place in my life I’m gonna lose you two, for ten years you were my parent and thanks to you I became who I’m today and I don’t know it might be silly but I have this uncontrollable fear that if I open my heart for them you too are gonna disappear, I love you both so much.’’ Both of them exchanged a glance and chuckled.
‘‘Awn, my silly little daughter, how can we leave you, you’re our daughter even if you take them in, in fact I think you're lucky you have two mom and dad when some kids didn’t have one. So don’t worry we will be always here for you and support you in whatever in you do ok?’’ Freen nodded and hugged her mom, her dad can’t help but join the hug.
‘‘I have a idea why don’t we invite everyone here this Sunday so we can reconnect better with everyone.’’ Her father propose to them.
‘‘Ok dad I will tell them, I gotta go becky is still waiting for me at home.’’ She grinned thinking at the younger girl pouting because she wasn’t still here.
‘‘And freen.’’ She halted her step turning to her mom who was smiling at her tenderly.
‘‘I’m so happy for you will never be alone ever again, you have a big family now.’’ Smiling at her mom she thinks that she was right after all her situation wasn’t that bad, gone was the nights alone in a bathtub with a glass of whine, gone was the dinner alone in her big dinning room, gone was the loneliness she spend her life in and it was all thanks to the girl waiting for her home.

‘‘Come to sit love how was your day?’’ They began digging into the dishes humming at the scent becky began to serve freen who said a soft thanks.
‘‘It was good I have a talk with my dad heart to heart and we’re good now even better than before, I think everything that happen bring us even closer. And at the evening I just lazed around the house I wasn’t feeling really well. And you how was your day?’’ Freen give her worried look, but becky was eating like everything was alright she concluded that she must feel better now.
‘‘I’m happy to hear that baby.
