Chapter Thirty-One

Tears sprang to Dominick’s eyes.

Emily. Eleven years I’ve waited for you. I wasn’t even sure you would really be here. But, there you are, so young and beautiful, I can hardly stand it. Emily! I love you!

Once again, his hand reached for the door handle. Once again, he stopped himself.

Hold on, hold on. Keep it together. She doesn’t know me from Adam. If I come on too strong, it will freak her out, and then where will I be? Trying to explain that I’m really a time traveler, and that we were already married in her future? That I’m her soul mate? Down that path, only madness lies.

Slightly slack-jawed, Dominick adjusted his mirror so he could watch the girls climb into a station wagon. Emily slid behind the wheel, looked over her shoulder and turned down the street headed the other way. Dominick shifted into drive and did a three-point turn on the narrow residential street. By the time he was pointing in the opposite direction, they were several blocks ahead.

Dominick didn’t push it. It was mid-morning, and traffic was light. They got on the Interstate for a few miles, but then got right back off and headed southeast. Eventually, they passed a sign that said, “University of Wisconsin–Sheboygan.”

Light dawned on Dominick. She must be going to college here. But, that’s not right. She graduated from the UW, but it was UW-Madison, not Sheboygan. He watched the station wagon turn into a parking lot. Immediately, the three girls hopped out and, now carrying book bags, hurried, still laughing, into a building and disappeared.

Dominick tapped his fingers against the wheel. So. Things are different here, I guess. I didn’t go to Hartfield Academy for two years in my last life, either. It’s the butterfly effect. Change one small thing and it causes ripples through the world. He turned the wheel to loop a circle around the parking lot and out. Doesn’t matter, though. I saw her. I saw Emily. Everything is going to be okay now. For the first time in a very long time, everything is going to be okay.
