Chapter 93: Moonshine Is Back
(Arata)
The car rolled inside Meena Mansion, the place my late grandfather had built for my grandma, but all of us now resided here with her.
My parents initially had been living in Mom’s place, which she had inherited from my maternal grandfather, but due to some tragic incident that took place there, she refused to return.
This was our home now. I had been planning to move out with Andy, but now that plan had gone down the drain. The night had already fallen due to the time difference between the two cities when we arrived home and I knew Mom and Baba were home. Zaylen had told me on the way.
Excitement rushed through me as I got out of the car. The scent of Arabian jasmine was heavy in the air as grandma had planted them in her garden and loved creating small jewellery from it.
I inhaled deeply with my eyes closed while our gatekeeper greeted me and began to help Zaylen with my luggage. Returning his greeting, I rushed inside to meet my family.
Opening the front door, I burst into the lounge where Mom, Baba and Grandma were seated on the sofas discussing something.
"Surprise," I shouted, spreading my arms.
Their collective eyes found me and a blinding rush of happiness and cheerful smiles brightened up their faces and the room.
Baba jumped out of his seat and rushed to be by my side, hugging me as if his life depended on it.
"My moonshine, you are here." The happiness in his voice was so evident, filling me with his love and warmth.
