Unexpected Parents
Back from our retreat, I barely tossed my bag down when faced with a surprise: my parents. Their presence was unexpected, and their faces wore expressions of remorse.

The air hung thick with unspoken words and years of complexities. Ready to listen, I sat, heart open yet cautious, eager to finally hear their side.
