It was at that precise moment that Melon got it all. He sprung up in ecstatic elation, rushing into Holden’s embrace and encircling his arms around his father’s neck. With an affectionate tone, he exclaimed, “Daddy, I’ve missed you so terribly!”

Having poured out his sentiments, he planted a joyful kiss on Holden’s cheek and commenced an animated conversation, regaling him with tales of everything under the sun.

Meanwhile, Devin, who had accompanied them, couldn’t be more thrown off.

Both he and Holden had donned leather jackets, but the divergence lay in the fact that Holden had deliberately disguised himself.
