The car stopped．

Minka's heart was beating fast， but her legs carried her forward．

Faces flashed through the car windows． She looked at the front passenger seat， but Betty Jane was not there． Through the back window， she saw white hair． Minka stepped forward， opened the door and was met with flowers．

From behind them， she saw her daughter's face， the one she'd seen only in photographs， and heard the voice she'd heard only over the phone．

Everything disappeared behind one longing（渴望）一to get her daughter into her arms． And then， she was．

Minka's sight can't see it clearly． Her voice stuck in her throat（喉嚨）．Her arms wrapped tightly around her girl． She'd waited more than 28，000days for this， her daughter safe in her embrace（擁抱）．The joy of it was boundless．

Finally Minka let go a little， pulling back to see that dear face again一a face as lined as her own． But Minka believed she knew those pale blue eyes． She lookedinto them， and then her daughter kissed her cheek． Minka managed to speak， her words ‘I love you' that had never been spoken．

"You are as wonderful as I thought you would be．" Minka said．

They didn't look like strangers meeting for the first time． There was something weaving（編織）them together， right before their eyes．
