“Who’s this?” he asked of the room at large when he drew back and saw Robin.

“Robin McGrath,” Eric answered. “Bridget’s summer replacement. And before you get any ideas, she’s already spoken for.”

“That’s some fairly fast work, bro,” Benjamin complimented, exchanging a look of masculine approval with his brother.

Robin shook herself free of Eric’s claim, both physically and verbally. “No one should get any ideas,” she corrected him. “Hello, Benjamin.”

“You know my name.”

“It would be hard not to. I’ve heard it often enough.”

“Did they tell you that one day I’m going to be an up-and-coming young attorney who drives a fast car and has lots of money to spend on fun things?”

“I believe I heard something to that effect.”

“Good.” Benjamin drew out the word. “Maybe you’d be willing to wait around? It’ll only take me about five or six years to get there.”

Robin grinned. “I’ll think about it.”

Benjamin had come a long way from the child who had cried so despondently in Robin’s footage. Seeing him happy and seemingly well adjusted lifted a portion of the weight she had carried through the years. His piteous tears had spoken so eloquently for all of them. If he could be truly happy, why couldn’t it happen for all of them, herself included?

“Mom! Mom! Can Colin and me go play on the pier?” Gwen inserted in the tiny silence that followed.

“I…Colin and I,” Allison corrected.

“Can we?” Gwen persisted, undeterred.

“Not alone.”

“I’ll go with them,” Eric offered.

The ten-year-olds whooped and ran over to jump on their uncle. He grinned at Robin, then laughingly adjusted one child under each arm. Instead of going down the hall to the front door, he took them outside through the garden, the opened French doors wide enough for three.

“Don’t let them get into any trouble!” Allison called after them.

“Trouble and the brats go hand in hand, don’t they?” Benjamin teased.
