The boys awoke early in the morning to use the bathroom. Returning to their room, they looked at Jack and Crystal suspiciously. “You slept in here with us?” Mark asked.

“Of course we did.” Jack sat up and yawned. “I told you I wouldn’t leave you. And Crystal was worried sick about you.” He watched her rise and go to the bathroom. He told the boys, “You have to realize that this is a big change for her, being responsible for two children when she’s only ever had to be responsible for herself. She’s doing the best she can, guys, and I think she’s doing a pretty good job. She cares so much about you two. She could have called the police and dumped you off, you know. She never once thought about doing that. She really, really cares about you, and wants to do the best thing for you.” He stopped talking as she returned and looked at them from the doorway.

Devon slipped over to her and reached up for a hug. Mark was a little slower to come around but he hugged her as well.

Crystal hugged them both tightly and whispered, “Thank you for forgiving me. I promise to try harder and do better.”

“We think you’re doing just fine,” Jack stood up next to her and smiled.

She smiled. “I am trying.”

Jack pressed a kiss to her forehead. “How about I go make some coffee and scrounge up some food? Then we’ll get out of here for a while.”

“Yay!” The boys jumped up and down.

Crystal smiled and nodded.
