MY STORY

20.

Wow it's been a while since I actually wrote anything...I don't know if I'm as good. Oh and you might wanna read the previous chapters, just to get back on story line properly

Enjoy!

A loud sob escaped from Khairi's throat, and her right palm immediately flew to her lips, muffling her sobs. It took a while for her to register what was happening, and to come face to face with the term that her Older sister was standing right before her

Her sobs intensified, and a million emotions were reeling through her at the moment. Relief, that's what she felt at the, Khairi was seeing her sister after a long time that she couldn't help but feel that way. At the same time tears were streaming down her face

We're they tears of joy? She couldn't even exactly pinpoint at the moment. She was so engrossed that she forgot that Doc was standing right behind her, and as he moved to open the door wider his voice came "Who is it Unmulkhair?"

She watched as her sister's eyes immediately went wide, and Khairi immediately presumed what her sister would think at the moment. She was quick to act "No, I swear it's not what you think at all" She was shaking her head vigorously

It was like something within Khairi just snapped, all the emotions she's been bottling just came rushing through. One minute she was standing before her sister and the next minute she was down on her knees, crying her heart out. Her lungs felt so constricted that she felt difficulty inhaling and exhaling, Khairi was literally wheezing

She was crying so loud that Ami had heard her and came rushing out, asking what was going on. Her sister stepped inside the house, not after glancing at Doc and Ami with questionable eyes.

Khairi had expected and pictured a lot of things for when she meets her family again. But what she hadn't pictured was her sister getting on her knees and bursting into her own set of tears. She hugged her, and then the tears intensified

They were both crying and hugging each other like their lives depended on it "I didn't do it, I swear" Khairi blurted out amidst tears "I'm not that type of person"

"I'm not a bad person I swear" Khairi repeated on and on "I didn't do it...I didn't do it..."

The words kept coming out of her mouth until her sister wiped her own tears and grabbed Khairi by the shoulders "I know Khairi, I know you didn't"

Ami looked at her brother, and they both took it as their cue to give the sisters their space. Khairi also wiped her eyes that had turned bloodshot red "What?" She questioned

"That's why I'm here"

Khairi's breath hitched "How did you know I'm here? How did you find out? What do you mean that is why you are here?"

Batul, her sister, took in a sharp inhale of breath, she then wiped her face. She couldn't help it, her arms enveloped Khairi in a large, warm hug "I've missed you so much, so so much" Her face was now buried in the crook of Khairi's neck, and she was on the brink of tears again

Khairi was rendered wordless, her lips moved to form a coherent sentence but no words came out, only the stream of tears that were cascading down her cheeks "I...I..." She tried again, but they were no words

Her older sister moved back, looking at her in the face "Let's talk Khairi, I have so much questions and so much to tell you" She grabbed her by the shoulders, urging her to stand up as they moved to the two-sitter chair in the sitting room

Khairi scanned the place and neither Doc nor Ami was nowhere to be found, they must have left to give them some space and time to talk. Her emotions were all over the place, but the tears had finally subsided. They sat down, facing each other and none had uttered a word yet
