As Elliot led Willow into their home, she was instantly wrapped in a hug by Anastasia who had promptly dashed over across the living room. Anastasia had been terrified and there was not a calm moment in her life ever since the instant she heard Willow had gone missing. Now that Willow was finally standing before her, whole and healthy, she finally stopped worrying.

“I’m fine, Mom! I’m alright.” Willow hugged Anastasia back, feeling guilty about her reckless actions that led to giving her parents a scare.

“Jared and Ellen even called to ask after you. Remember to call them back later so that they’ll stop worrying,” Anastasia said. All these years, they had kept Willow well-protected out of fear of what might happen to her.

Willow hummed in assent before cheerfully skipping further into the living room. Elliot wrapped an arm around Anastasia and kissed her on the top of her head. “Alright now. She’s finally home safe and sound. You don’t have to worry anymore.”

“That’s true. Oh, I nearly had to be hospitalized because of my heart,” she exclaimed, looking up at him.

Distressed by that piece of news, he reassuringly said, “As long as I live, our family will be fine.”

Anastasia snuggled into his embrace. “Okay.”

Willow returned to her room and called Jared to tell him she was safe.

“Tell me. What exactly happened?” Jared worriedly asked.
