Amanda looked up, her face streaked with tears, her eyes filled with a mixture of surprise and relief. She stood, and they met in a tight embrace. Neither said a word for a long moment; they just held each other, feeling the weight of the past two weeks lift from their shoulders.
“I’m so sorry, Mom,” Amanda finally whispered, her voice breaking. “I just needed to figure some things out. I didn’t mean to make you worry.”
Kaylee pulled back, her own eyes brimming with tears. “I’m just glad you’re safe. Let’s go home.”
They walked to the car, holding hands, both feeling a sense of renewal and relief. As they drove back, the sun began to set, casting a warm, golden glow over the road ahead—a symbol of new beginnings and the healing journey they were about to embark on together.
