Charly
âYou go on vacation, and get a dog and a boyfriend. I go on vacation, and all I get is massive diarrhea.â
I snort. âThatâs disgusting, Jenny.â
âItâs true. Look at you. Youâre literally glowing. I need sunglasses to look at you.â
I smile as I cross off number five on my list.
5. Go camping
âWhere is the new beau? I need to give him the best friend pep talk.â
I glance into the hallway. âHeâs still asleep. He had a rough night.â
She shakes her head. âI canât imagine what thatâs like. His whole life must be so different than what it used to be.â
âHe can still do a lot.â I frown. âI just hate that heâs feeling this way because he took me camping.â
âIt shows how much he cares about you, if he knew the consequences and he took you anyway.â She pauses. âHow are you feeling? You said yourself how hard it will be to leave once the summer is over.â
I scratch behind Edwardâs ears. âI donât know. It happened, and now I donât want to stop. But I donât know whatâs going to come of this once I go back home. Iâm going to try to take it one day at a time.â
âThatâs good, Char. Live in the present. Nothing wrong with that.â
Nothing, except the future looms over me like an impending storm.
I say goodbye to Jenny, and take Edward on an extra-long morning walk. Nana said he was a nervous wreck without me this weekend, pacing around the inn, and jumping every time the door would open.
It makes me wonder what heâll feel like when I go back to New York. Thereâs a strict no-dogs-allowed rule in my apartment complex, and the rent is so cheap, Iâd be crazy to give that up and move somewhere else. Heâs yet another thing Iâll have to leave behind at Sunnyside.
âTell me to stop thinking, Edward.â
He looks up at me with his tongue hanging out the side of his mouth as he trots beside me.
âYouâre such a good boy, you know that?â
He lets out a grunt, and I pretend it means, Yes, Mom.
I pop into the inn on our way back, and help Beatrice with breakfast.
âI missed you this weekend.â She squeezes my arm. âI donât know what Iâm going to do with myself when you leave us.â
Sadness punches my gut again. Seems to be the theme of the morning.
âHowâs my boy feeling today?â
I whisk the eggs in a large bowl. âHeâs still sleeping. Iâm going to bring him breakfast after we serve the guests, and see if he needs anything.â
âIâm glad heâs letting you take care of him.â She glances out the window above the sink. âI worry heâs alone too much. Itâs been wonderful to see him with you.â
Unsure of what to say, I land on, âYour grandson is incredible.â
Her blue eyes sparkle with pride. âAnd so are you, my dear.â
After we serve the guests, I bring a plate of scrambled eggs, toast, and bacon to Bryce.
His room is dim, his blinds still drawn.
