Padma was about the open the door but Devi was already knocking so she just stood back as she could hear the footsteps of her husband coming towards them. Padma could tell if it was her husband by the way that his footsteps sounded. It was the little things like that, that Padma had started telling the girls.
Tears started to fall from her eyes as she watched her daughter and husband hug. It was a moment that she couldn't exactly explain, how was she supposed to react to watching that. Without thinking she placed a hand lightly on Roger's back. It was in some ways more for herself than it was for him. She needed to touch him to believe this was happening. She smiled as she let her other hand whip away some tears.
"Why don't I make us all something to eat, you and Daddy can catch up." She directed more at Devi than she did Roger.
