"Aida!" Kehlani and Lupita yelled in unison the moment they spotted her. The duo ran towards her, embracing her tightly as they all cried tears of joy.
"Aida, my child," Lupita cried. "I thought I'd never see you again."
"Mum, Kehlani," Aida let go of them. "I'm so glad to see the two of you."
The detectives had come to join them now.
Lupita shed more tears when she noticed the bandages and the Band-Aids that were all over her precious daughter's body.
"My child, what happened to you?"
"Mum, let's go inside, I'll tell you all what happened, I'm very tired."
With her left arm around Kehlani's shoulder, Aida made her way into the house. She took a seat on the sofa.
Tears ran down her cheeks as her eyes wandered round the living room. If Faila had succeeded in killing her, she wouldn't be here today. Her safety was all thanks to Kieran.
