After the picnic, they went back to Gaylynn’s house, and she helped little Joy pack up to go home. Zach waited as the three women rushed everywhere. “You don’t have to sit there waiting for us,” Gaylynn said.

“I know. But I’m going to take you out for supper tonight, and I figured it was easier just to hang out while I wait.”

“Oh, you are, are you? Aren’t you supposed to ask first?”

“Probably!” He winked at her, and she shook her head, still hurrying around to get everything picked up and ready to go.

“I think that’s all,” Tanya finally said. “Are you ready to go home and see Daddy, Joy?”

Joy nodded, but then released her suitcase, running toward Gaylynn. “Thank you for letting us stay with you.” With those words, she threw herself into Gaylynn’s arms, and Gaylynn held her close.

“I’m going to miss having you around,” Gaylynn told the girl honestly. “Who else will read Amelia Bedelia books with me?”

“No one!” Joy said. “So I have to come visit you to read with you.”

“I’d love that!”

Gaylynn walked over to hug Tanya closely. “We’re keeping in touch. I need to meet Roger, and I need to talk to you on a regular basis!”

Tanya nodded, tears streaming once again. “Thank you for all you’ve done for both of us.”

“You’re very welcome.” Gaylynn watched as her two guests headed for their car. Joy turned and came back, hugging Zach as well, then without a word, ran back to her mother.

After they were out of sight, she turned to go back into the house, feeling rather than seeing Zach following her in. “So what are your big plans for tonight?”

Zach shrugged. “I have no plans other than being with you. I don’t work again until Monday, so we have some time to be together.”

“Works for me.” Gaylynn desperately wished her sister Heather were around. She could take one look at them and know if they were a good match. Relying on her sister’s powers wasn’t what she did, though. “Do you want to go out? Or do you want me to cook? I could throw something together pretty quickly.”

“Nah. Let’s just go out. I don’t think you should have to cook after a day of partying.”

She stuck her tongue out at him. “That’s the first time I’ve spent an entire day having fun in I don’t know how long. It was really nice.”

“It was. And I’m expected to go to Sunday dinner at your parents’ house tomorrow. Am I supposed to go to church, too?”

She looked at him. “Do you usually go to church?”

“I did in San Antonio, but here I’ve had the night shift so much that I haven’t been waking up in time.”

She frowned at that. “So you’re not against going to church?”

“Not at all. I’ll be there in the morning. Which church?”

She quickly named the church and gave him the address. “It would mean a lot to my parents if you were there. They worry about their daughters all marrying heathens.”

He laughed.
