Chapter Six

Bobbi took a deep breath, trying to decide where to start. “Do you remember when I told you about my father?”

Jaclyn nodded slowly. “He’d just escaped from prison, and you were trying to decide what to do.”

“He’s getting out at the end of the month. He knows where I am, and he wants a relationship with me and his grandchildren.” Bobbi bit into the cookie, wishing it would magically transform itself into chocolate.

“Wow. What are you going to do?”

Bobbi shrugged. “I don’t know! We’ve decided to talk to the kids about it on Sunday at the family dinner. We think they have a right to help us decide. He’s their last living grandparent, after all.”

“Do they know about him?”

“They know their grandfather killed their grandmother, and he’s been in prison since I was a child. Nothing more.” What more was there to say? If she thought about it, that covered all they really needed to know.

“That’s a tough situation,” Jaclyn said, shaking her head. “Are you hoping for help from the fairies? They only seem to have opinions on people’s love lives. They told me you and Wilber are doing a bit better.”

“There’s nothing like a crisis to help us see eye-to-eye.” Bobbi sighed, running her fingers through her hair. It was still as blond as it had been in the eighties, but now she helped it with regular salon appointments. “And no, I’m not looking for help from the fairies. I thought maybe my friend Jaclyn might have an opinion.”

Jaclyn looked almost afraid to give her advice. “I only pass on what the fairies say. You know I don’t give advice.”

Bobbi shrugged. “It was worth a try. This is one of those days when I really wish I had Kelsey around to talk to. She always made me feel like everything was better.” She knew the good relationship she’d had with her mother-in-law wasn’t considered normal by most people, but she’d truly appreciated the older woman’s advice on everything from home décor to cooking.

Jaclyn frowned. “You think you feel better after talking to her? She was my closest friend for over fifty-five years. Not having her around anymore is hard every single day.”

Bobbi nodded. “For me too. I know I’m supposed to hate my mother-in-law, but I never could. She was too loving.”

“She loved you too. She always called you her daughter-in-love, and said you stole her heart the first day you walked on the ranch. Knowing you and Wilber are having problems would make her roll over in her grave.”

“We’re working through them. I promise. He’s always been my staunchest supporter.” Bobbi felt badly for even being annoyed with him and questioning their relationship, because he had always been very good to her. Well, except for lately, of course.

“You don’t need advice from me, Bobbi. You know just what to do. Talk to your children, get their feelings, and then make a decision. If you don’t think he’s dangerous, maybe it’s time for you to forgive him.”
