After everything they had been through, their family of three was finally reunited. Thinking of the past made him emotional, but he didn't want anyone to see. So, he just held his daughter close and showered her with kisses, until the little girl covered her face and refused to be hugged by her parents anymore.
Mr. Joyce smiled and took Cheryl, while Mrs. Joyce went to the kitchen to bring out the food. Since they knew in advance that they were coming home, Ronan's parents had already prepared a lavish dinner for them.
Ronan put his arm around Lara and followed his dad toward the dining room. Lara broke free from his hold. "I'll go help your mother."
Mrs. Joyce was just bringing out a dish. She set it down and hurried over to gently push Lara into a seat. "No, no, you've been on a plane for so long. Just sit here and rest!"
"Yes, sit down and get some rest."
