REUNION

*********

It was a lazy Sunday morning, and she lingered in bed longer than usual. After finally rising, she freshened up, dressed casually, and threw her hair into a messy bun, yet somehow still radiating beauty in her relaxed state. Casting a quick glance at herself, she sauntered towards the dining area for breakfast.

On her way, she spotted her dad seated in the lounge. With a mischievous grin, she approached him to offer a morning greeting. Mr. Parker, engrossed in his phone, remained unaware of Eva's presence until she snuck up behind him, wrapping her arms around his shoulders.

Startled, Mr. Parker looked up, his face breaking into a smile as he realized it was Eva. Tenderly, he clasped her arms and remarked, "Ah, my daughter is awake," his voice brimming with affection.
