"Who is it?" asked Kelsey, Jerry's younger sister.
"It's Jerry" Jerry replied.
Kelsey opens the door and screams "Big bro its you!" Kelsey hugged Jerry.
"Ow Ow Ow easy there! I'm still a bit hurt." Jerry told Kelsey.
"Sorry Sorry I'm just so happy you're back Big Bro. So, who's this girl next to you, the last girl that was here made me angry?" Kelsey asked Jerry.
"Oh yeah, Kelsey this is Melionna she's been staying with me at the hospital everyday and she helped me walk home right after she took me to a restaurant to celebrate me being checked out the hospital." Jerry explained to Kelsey.
Melionna said "H... Hi I'm your big bro's helper and protector."
Kelsey replied, "Oh nice to meet you I better not find out that you're okay than I'll give you a chance but, mess it up and things won't go well between me and you."
Jerry said, "Alright now Kelsey don't scare her she's been really supportive and helpful, I trust her so you should trust her as well and who's the other girl that came over?"
Kelsey told Jerry it doesn't matter now that he's back. Kelsey and Jerry went inside and Melionna said her goodbyes and Melionna went home. Kelsey told her parents about Jerry being back and they all celebrated his return including Jerry's older sister; Elina. Who usually doesn't care about what happens to Jerry.
"You really are an idiot, but I really didn't think you'd become a suicidal maniac." Elina said in a disappointed tone.
"But I'm -sniff sniff- really glad that you're back lil bro," Elina continued.
Elina and Kelsey cried and hugged Jerry and he said, "Ow! Elina why are you hugging me so tight?"
Elina said, "Shut up you idiot!"
Jerry's parents made a meal for everyone to celebrate Jerry's return. Jerry cried and told Elina and Kelsey he's glad that he's back and he missed them.
