Chapter 45

• Jasmine, momentarily taken aback by the abrupt end to the call, was piqued by curiosity, her eyes narrowing slightly in bemusement. However, her intrigue transformed into sheer joy as she witnessed Ava, a radiant figure of hope and love, running towards her with a bright smile that was a reflection of her inner elation.
• Ava's approach was swift, her heart pounding with each step that closed the distance between them, until finally, the two sisters stood face to face, their eyes locked in a powerful embrace that transcended mere physicality. In that moment, the world around them faded into insignificance, leaving only the profound connection that bound them together. They enveloped each other in a warm hug, tears mingling with laughter as emotions surged through them like a torrential river.
• Through teary eyes and a voice laden with a mixture of relief and affection, Jasmine managed to express the sentiments that had weighed on her heart during their time apart, "I've missed you, sis. You ran off with Leon and seemed to forget about everyone." A fragile smile broke through her tears as she continued, "But I'm leaving for me." Her words were a testament to the complex tapestry of their bond, woven with threads of longing, forgiveness, and the unbreakable love that defined their sisterhood.
