Returned cats to rescue and ended up highly regretting it

So a couple weeks ago I adopted two bonded kitties from a foster rescue after my ESA cat passed away. I hella regretted getting them at first because they weren’t like my old cat and I didn’t feel a bond with them whatsoever and decided to return them after about a week. I was also stressed out over their high energy but honestly it wasn’t even that bad.. Now that they’re not here I realized that I did in fact have a budding bond with them but I was still grieving for my previous cat and tried to push those feelings away. They were honestly such a breath of fresh air and I was just starting to enjoy their presence the day I returned them. I feel like such a terrible person and idk what to do anymore. The foster mom was extremely understanding and took them back willingly without outwardly judging me and even refunded the funds I gave her to buy the two. Sigh would foster homes ever allow people to adopt their animals back though? If they say no I’ll definitely suck it up and consider this a lesson to not make such impulsive decisions from now on. Meanwhile I’m crying every night because I miss them so much… I feel so terrible over all this. Just feel depressed and empty :(
