"Mom... I'm sorry," Abigail said with tears streaming down her face while feeling both warm and guilty inside.

"It's okay. You have your own path to follow. All I can do as a mother is to make sure I cook your favorite meals and wait for you to come back home," Scarlett said gently.

From the moment Abigail returned until she sat down to eat pasta, she felt like she was in a dream that was not quite real.

But now, she truly felt like she was back.

Everything at home was just as it was before, and everyone was waiting and thinking for her.

It felt good.

"Oh my! I need to get back to making breakfast. What would you like to drink? I'll make it for you," Scarlett said, nudging Abigail aside.

Abigail smelled something burnt and laughed. "I'll have some coffee. I'm going back to Quinn Village later to see Grandma, so I need to be alert."

"Sure thing," Scarlett replied.

Abigail sat back in the dining room and watched the morning sun cast its golden glow outside. After six months of drifting, her heart finally found its anchor back home.

After finishing breakfast, Abigail boarded a plane back to Pendorf.

Instead of heading straight to Quinn Village, she decided to make a stop at the mall.

Six months had passed, yet Pendorf remained unchanged.
