I went into a store and bought all kinds of toys for Alice, my sister.
She's 10 now, and I haven't seen her for two years.
I Knock on the door, and Mom opens it. She first sees Nate, who's standing next to me, and then she freezes.
Her eyes started to go wide.
"Mom," I call out for her.
She comes and hugs me, and it's not just any hug; it feels like I'm floating in a cloud, like I'm 5-year-old Cordelia, who was hugging her mother before she was taken away.
"Cordelia," she cries out. I glance at my brother, whose lip is curled into a smile.
We went inside the house.
"What happened? Is everything okay?"
"Mom, everything is wonderful; I'm done with him." We don't say Fyodor's name in this house, so she knows I mean Fyodor when I say him.
She cries, and when she calms down, I ask, "Mom, is Alice okay? Will it be okay if I see her?"
"Of course, let's go; what are those?" She asks as she looks at the bags.
"Those are for Alice," I tell her as we go upstairs.
She knocks and goes inside. A few minutes later, she tells me to go in.
I nervously walk in with a smile on my face.
"Hey," I say softly.
Alice doesn't go off of Mom's hands; does she look tested?
I slowly walk to her and kneel.
As she looks at my face, she does something I didn't think of.
She jumped on me, hugging
"Ari," she calls for me.
Ari is short for Aurora; she's the only one who calls me that.
I decided to spend the night there, and Nate also helped me choose an apartment.
And he brought me a car as a present so that I wouldn't die on my last mission.
Yeah...
Anyway, the next day, Alice woke me up.
"Ari Ari Ari," she jumps on me.
''Yes." I rub my eyes And look at her.
"Mom made breakfast; let's eat." I nod and go with her.
I walked downstairs and saw Nate drinking coffee, Mom making pancakes, and Alice running.
Believe it or not, this is my first time saying that my family gathered together and had breakfast. It's not that they didn't do it before; it's just that I was never there.
remember? I was kidnapped, blah blah blah...
I sat down and ate mom's cooking.
"By the way, your car has been delivered," Nate tells me.
A few hours later, I said my goodbyes.
This is the end of life I never wanted but had to be at, but 'end' is just another word for 'beginning'.
