So that was it, John wrote Lish a cheque for a thousand bucks. Then he got his dark suit and his dried fruit face back into that ballroom, in a hurry to explain all to the boys. Mary walked Lish and the kids to the lobby and they had some of the free coffee and doughnuts and talked. Mary wanted to get a cab for Lish, but Mary never really had money of her own. Mary said she would try to make it out to Winnipeg soon to visit Lish and the kids, but she had a sad look on her face when she laughed. In any case, they were coming out for a niece’s wedding in the fall and they’d see each other then. She did like Lish’s outfit. “Leave it to Lish,” she said, and she said the girls were gems. Lish told Mary that she intended to use the money to go to Colorado to find the twins’ father, and Mary wished her well. She apologized for John and gave each of the girls another candy and a big wet kiss and a hug.
