Her father, and her mother, look up with a mix of hope and apprehension. ALISH (trying to sound calm) Hello, Mom, Dad. Linda and John stand up, tears welling in their eyes. They rush to embrace their daughter. LINDA (teary-eyed) Oh, Alish, we've missed you so much! Her father (voice choked with emotion) We're so sorry, sweetheart. Can you find it in your heart to forgive us? Alish hugs her parents tightly, overwhelmed by the emotions of the moment. Ali watches the touching scene, filled with a mixture of relief and happiness.

He walks back to the living room with a contemplative expression. Her mother (as Alish sits on the couch) Alish, sweetheart, we're so sorry for what we did to you. We should have been there for you when you needed us most. Alish looks at her parents, her eyes welling up with tears. She's heard these words before, but hearing them now, seeing the genuine remorse in their eyes, it touches her heart. ALISH (voice trembling) You left me when I needed you the most, Mom, Dad. Ali was there for me when you weren't. I... I couldn't have asked for a better husband. Her father (teary-eyed) We were so wrong, Alish. And Ali... he's been more of a son to us than we ever realized. Ali, discreetly listening from the living room, smiles with a sense of contentment. ALI (whispers to himself) They'll find their way back to each other. Alish's parents continue to speak, expressing their deepest regrets and their desire to make amends. Alish, while still wounded, begins to open her heart to the possibility of reconciliation. Her mother (earnestly) We'd like to be a part of your life, Alish, and Ali's too.

The table is filled with dishes of various kinds, from savory omelets to sweet pastries. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee fills the air. Ali enters the kitchen, wearing a sleepy but contented smile. He takes a deep breath, savoring the delicious scents. ALI (in awe) Wow, this smells amazing! Linda, surprised by Ali's presence, turns around, beaming with motherly warmth. Her mother (sincerely) Good morning, Ali. I thought I'd treat you both to a special breakfast. Ali, touched by her gesture, walks over to Linda and hugs her. He hasn't experienced a mother's cooking in a long time. ALI (gratefully) Thank you, Linda. I can't remember the last time I had a meal like this. Linda pats Ali's back affectionately. Her mother (softly) You're like a son to us, Ali. We're just sorry it took us this long to realize it.
