Chapter 7

Ema POV

I was now sitting in the living room of the house I was first brought to. I waited for my dad to come back from my mom's room. He told me how I was my mom's favourite and Eva was dad's favourite. I smiled the whole time laughing to the dad jokes my dad made in between. I never thought I had a beautiful family like this but I couldn't just move out of my old house. Somehow I couldn't get mad at my father who took me away from my real family.

I loved him more than anything, I was just disappointed not angry.

Eva POV

I went to the kitchen to make dinner as I heard my dad and sister talking about their past. I felt happy getting my sister back, when we lost Ema my dad went into depression and so I could not depend on my dad. I learnt to be independant and did everything on my own. I never complained either, but I always wanted my dad to see me also as his daughter.

I saw my dad smiling for the first time after so long... I couldn't even remember when I last saw him smile. I was happy seeing them bond after many years. I took the drinks in my hand and walked to the living room, where they were sitting when I heard dad say "all these years I was behind finding my lost daughter, when I knew I had the responsibility to look after the one I had. But I never gave up, nor did she. I knew she felt bad but after all she is her mother's daughter." I felt my eyes tear up, he knew it all along and it wasn't me who depended on him rather he depended on me. I felt so happy he knew my troubles, I never once told him any of my troubles as I loved him and didn't want to trouble him.

When he said that I looked like mom I felt so happy. He always said how Ema is like mom. I went and sat with them to listen to their conversation. I looked at Ema's face and it felt like I was looking at my own reflection. I suddenly hugged her as my emotions got control over me."I missed you" I said while I snuggled myself onto her neck. I could hear her sniffle and from that I knew she was crying and so was I.

Ema POV

I was looking at Eva's baby photos when suddenly I felt someone pulling me. Eva pulled me into a strong hug and whispered "I missed you". I felt overwhelmed by emotions and started crying with happiness. I couldn't believe I missed 16 years of life with this beautiful family. On that day I promised myself I would never let them slip from my hands.
