Chapter 379 - New addition and bonus... (1/2)
Andrew too noticed it and stood in front of her before asking, ” Everyone had already greeted me. But what about my most favourite sister?
Won't she give her brother a hug? Is she too much angry on me that she doesn't even want to talk?”
Veronica just blinked for few times and said, ”You're just an illusion of mine. If I close my eyes, then you'd vanish away again...
There will be no Andrew again like now. I'm sure, I'm just living in a surreal dream right now.”
As these words went through Andrew's ear, his brain got a big hit along with his heart, thinking what he had done to his sister that she couldn't even able to believe about his presence.
Andrew took few step towards her and crashed her into a bone crushing hug as he whispered, ”No baby sis. You're brother will not go anywhere again leaving you. I'll be there for you for my whole life..
And I'm not an illusion of yours. I'm actually here. Look at my eyes and you'll believe it.”
Veronica didn't look up but just burst into tears in her brother's arm. She could feel the warmth emanating from his body.
Sobbing on his chest, Veronica asked while stammering, ”Where were you brother? Why did you leave us?”
”That's a big story to tell. But first, you stop crying. I just can't see your tears.” Andrew said while wiping her tears.
Here, Reuben's eyes also became teary seeing the heartwarming scene playing in front of him, which also didn't go unnoticed by Andrew as he asked him softly, ”Will you not forgive me Reuben and help me to come out of the guilt?”
”Everyone needs a punishment for their wrong deeds. You too need one. But I know that living far away from us for these years was the biggest retribution of yours. But..” Reuben said but stopped for a while.
Andrew stared at him with hopeful eyes when Reuben added, ”But I can forgive you on one condition. Only if you promise to not leave us again.”
Andrew felt tears running down from his eyes as he said, ”I promise bro. It'll not happen again. I promise to protect you all till my last breath.”
Hearing that, Reuben couldn't control himself more and pounced on his brother as they both hugged each other tightly, crying out all their pain.
”Seems like Drew brother never loved me. He completely forgot about me.” Louis said while pouting.
”Jealous idiot!” Reuben taunted him which made Andrew laughed out loud.
Andrew then stretched his other hand to him and pulled Louis in a bro hug.
After few times, when everyone became quite normal, Veronica squealed in joy and said, ”Oh my God! I can't believe that Lisa is none other than our sister-in-law.”
”Yes, me too Vero. Not only we get our brother back but there is a new addition in our group. Our beautiful sister-in-law, Lisa.” Lucinda too cheered up.
Willa shook her head in denial and said, ”No guys, you're forgetting the bonus here. Our soon to be born little niece or nephew.”
