Chapter 45

Juliette

“Mom!” happy tears shredded down my cheeks she engulfed me into a tight hug and sobbed while I still couldn’t believe that I was in her arms.

“Oh my darling!” she cooed and kissed my cheeks.

“Julie!“I heard Jace’s voice and pulling away from mom I looked behind her to find Jace standing looking at me with teary eyes.

“You kid!” I cried and pulled him into a hug and he wrapped his arms around my body and laughed when I punched him softly on his side.

“What is all this facial hair?” I asked as I pulled away from him and touched his cheeks which had facial hair.

“And you look quite tall. Did you grow or something?” I asked and he nodded and wiped his eyes.

“How are you?” he asked and I nodded telling him that I was fine.

“Dad!” I hugged him and he smiled down at me. Mom took out a handkerchief and blew her nose loudly and I looked at her.

“Mom!” both me and Jace said in unison.
