Danny looked at him for a long moment. “You sure you want to?”

Nolie winced inside. Danny was being honest. Could Gabe really cope with that?

Gabe’s face tightened, and he kept his focus on the boy as he went to him. He squatted down so that they were face to face.

“Yeah, I want to.” His tone was deeper, as if the words took an effort. “But first, I owe you an apology. Listen, buddy, I’m sorry I didn’t know what to do when you had that seizure.”

“That’s okay.” Danny’s voice lowered to a murmur, and he looked down.

Her heart twisted. That won’t do it, Gabe. He know it’s more than that.

“No, it’s not okay. I’m a firefighter. We’re supposed to be able to handle things like that.”

If she clenched her hands any tighter, she’d draw blood. You have to be honest with him, Gabe. Please, Father, make him see that.

“You didn’t come yesterday.” Danny’s voice was soft but implacable. “I thought you didn’t like me anymore ’cause of the seizure.”

Gabe took the boy’s small hands in his. “That could never happen. We’re friends.”

Danny shrugged. “Sometimes people don’t want to be my friends anymore after I have one. They think I’m weird.”

Please, Lord.

The muscles in Gabe’s neck worked, as if he was having trouble swallowing. The moment seemed to stretch on forever. Finally he cleared his throat.
