We are family

The night was long and dark, devoid of the moon and the stars in the sky, casting a veil of loneliness over the world. However, in the Jones Manor, light spilled from the windows, and the sound of laughter and chatter filled the air. Despite the absence of their daughter, the Jones family gathered for a rare and warm family dinner.

As the whole family and relatives sat around the table, sharing stories and relishing in each other's company, there was a knock on the door. In walked Aiden, a man of few words but a kind heart to those close to him. Mrs. Jones rose to welcome him, her eyes gleaming with unshed tears of joy at seeing him.

"Welcome, son," she said softly, her voice full of emotion.

"Thanks, mother. I wish you a long and healthy life," Aiden replied, his gaze filled with gratitude.
