Epilogue
Kristie finished dusting off the pictures that lined the living room. The one at the end always made her pause and smile. It was a picture of Gray and herself over ten years ago on Daytona Beach, shortly after they had settled down in their new life.
She remembered how after they left their goodbye and good luck party, Gray surprised her with a “re-do” of their honeymoon... the one that they never had. Gray’s g**g life was behind them. It had been behind them for ages.
“Mom,” ten-year-old Megan said, crossing her arms. “I don’t want to do my homework. I want to play outside.”
Kristie put down the photo and turned to Megan. She looked more and more like Kass each day. She sighed. “Megan, please. Finish up your math worksheet and then you can do whatever you want.”
