There standing in front of me is my whole family. A sob threatens to escape my mouth, as tears start leaking my eyes flowing down my cheeks. My legs wobble up making me stumble back, but a pair of arms hold me balancing me back on my feet. I look up to see in his eyes. He leans down whispering in my ear, "You wanted to talk to them right?" I bob my head up and down as I cry. "Go....Meet them." He commands softly, slightly pushing me.

I quickly leap towards them and run into dad's opened arms hugging him tightly. By now I was crying hysterically. "I'm sorry dad...I'm so sorry...I hurt you all....I'm so sorry."

"Shhh....Stop crying my child....You did no wrong.....Stop apologizing my jaan." Dad cooes me while caressing my back.

"No dad I hurt you all by spiting hurtful words....I'm so sorry dad."

"No my child, stop apologizing for the mistake you have never done....." I hear pa say, as he pats my head lovingly. I break myself from dad and hug Pa, encircling my arms around his torso.

"Hey stop crying now....I don't like to see my child cry." Pa says, wiping my tears. "Now common meet your mothers they were dying to see you." I quickly nod my head and turn towards mom and Ma.

"Mom....Ma..." I call out, as I hug them.

"I missed you all so much....I'm sorry, I've hurt you all."

"We missed you too baby, we missed you too...We know you didn't mean any of those words. You were angry and your anger is permissible my child. And please don't apologize, it's actually us who should ask forgiveness from you...We pushed you in this situation...We unheard your cries.....It's actually we who are wrong." Mom speaks, sniffing in between her soft cries.

"Yes honey, what your mom says is right my child, we are the ones at wrong. So please don't feel yourself guilt ridden." I smile nodding my head.

"Api..." I hear my baby sister's voice.

"Ziya.." I call out, embracing her in my arms.

"I missed you Api."

"I missed you too my sweet Ziya...."

"And what about me? Didn't you miss me? Hmph...My teddy has already forgotten about me it seems." I hear bhai's complaining tone, feigning hurt on his face.

I chuckle as I am being engulfed by him. "I missed you too bhai....How can I forget my sweetest brother?"

"God! I missed you so much....Our home doesn't feels like home without you..." He makes me cry more at his words.

"Shhh....Stop crying now...Aren't you going to introduce us to your in- laws? Look, they are patiently waiting for us." Bhai says, motioning in their direction, as he wipes my tears.

"Oh sorry...Please come.." I say climbing the steps to the entrance.

"I'm sorry I made you all wait...I kinda lost myself after seeing my family." I express my regret as soon as we reach them.

"Hey, no problem dear...We understand.....We didn't mind at all...." Anastasia assures me, gently squeezing my hand.

I smile at her before introducing all of them to each other. After some time, we all head inside the manor.

"How are you my jaan?" Dad asks, as soon as we enter the guest room. After having a long chat, followed by breakfast, Anastasia had asked me to take them to the guest room.

"Good" I reply. "You all have come to take me back right?" I ask looking at them with hope filled eyes and I find them looking at each other.

"Teddy....Come here my jaan.." Bhai calls out, patting the space beside him. I silently walk to him and take a seat beside him.
