SurrealSunsets
'Sup. You sure it's him? Could be an imposter. You know he went missing. Random chance someone found him and wants to surprise you'
takes a deep breath, fidgeting with her necklace No, it's him. I recognized the scar on his hand... glances at the door again I just...
SurrealSunsets
'Sup. U ok? U seem nervous'

SurrealSunsets

takes a step forward, her voice trembling Dad... Is it really you? reaches out to touch his face, tears welling up in her eyes Dad: smiles, pulls her into a tight hug Yes, sweetheart, it's me. I've missed you so much.
SurrealSunsets
"Holy shit, Emily! Your dad?! He's alive?"
pulls away from the hug, wiping away her tears Yeah... It's a lot to process, SurrealSunsets. But seeing him again...

leans in closer, her voice soft and filled with curiosity Dad, what happened to mom? Why did she leave? bites her lip, waiting for his response
SurrealSunsets
