Chapter 83: I forgot to tell you, but I have a girlfriend

As Riley stepped into the foyer, a radiant smile spread across her face, mirroring my own. Without a moment's hesitation, I rushed forward, enveloping her in a tight embrace. The familiar scent of her perfume and the warmth of her presence washed over me, banishing any lingering traces of apprehension.

"Riley," I exclaimed, my voice filled with genuine joy and affection as I held her close.

"Lydia," she replied, her voice tinged with equal warmth as she returned the embrace.

For a moment, time seemed to stand still as we stood locked in each other's arms, the worries of the day melting away in the comfort of each other's company. It was a rare moment of pure happiness, a reminder of the unbreakable bond between sisters.

Pulling back slightly, I met Riley's gaze, a smile playing at the corners of my lips. "I've missed you," I admitted, my voice soft with sincerity.

"I've missed you too," she replied, her eyes sparkling with affection.
