Helena
I said goodnight to Jack, Mac and my darling girl Savanna. Rome, Hal and I went over to Savvy’s condo for a night cap. Last night was a revelation for me. At fifty-two, I never thought my life would make a drastic change.
Seeing Savvy with her young men opened my eyes to new possibilities. When she told us she divorced Brian, I was ecstatic. I never liked that boy. He was too proud and arrogant. To turn down the gift of a house was very rude in mine and Romero’s opinion. It is tradition in our families that the father of the bride not only pays for the wedding but also gifts the couple their first house. And if they already have a house together, then they pay that house off. But no, Brian was adamant that he would provide for Savvy and that he needed no help from us.
