“Love is important. I’m not sure I’ll ever find it, but just watching my parents my whole life has shown me the importance of walking through life with another person who is your other half.” Daniel Donahue

Chapter Five

The May sun shone down so brightly Micah had beads of sweat gathering on his forehead. He loved the heat. It was one of the best parts of being a Floridian. For him there was nothing better than being in the great outdoors and letting the sun kiss his skin. It was the weekly family gathering of the Donahue brood. Normally they met up on Sundays after church service, but this week was different since there was a birthday party being held at the Silver Spoon on Sunday. So here it was, a Saturday afternoon at the family home and everyone had gathered for food, family and fellowship.

Life in the Donahue clan was different these days. Even when they were all gathered together it wasn’t something they could ignore. The separation of his parents had been a tough pill to swallow. He still couldn’t wrap his head around it. At what point had they started drifting apart? He couldn’t help but wonder if there was some issue they hadn’t told their children about. Some of his siblings thought their parents would find their way back to one another, and although Micah wished it would happen with all of his heart, he didn’t want to believe in something that might never happen. The disappointment would be acute.

Ever since he was a kid Micah had resisted believing in things that could disappoint him. His parents had instilled in him a belief in happily ever after. And although he hadn’t come close to establishing a serious relationship with a woman, Micah knew it was possible to meet your other half. Love was a tangible goal.

Matter of fact, three of his siblings had found the love of their lives in the last year. Parker and Cadence had been separated by lies and deception, but had found their way back to each other. Their adorable son Logan made their circle complete. Caleb had found happiness and everlasting love with his wife, Addie. And his brother Heath had battled post-traumatic stress disorder after serving in the military, only to end up marrying his high school sweetheart, Bella, and welcoming a baby girl, Chelsea, a few months ago. His niece was all kinds of adorable. The little crumb snatcher made him wonder about his own future kids. Would they look like him? Or their mother? It felt strange to have these thoughts running through his head. He had never thought of himself as the fatherly type or as someone who would settle down.

But after watching his three brothers fall so gloriously in love, Micah’s feelings had changed. Their lives had been enhanced by love. And Parker and Heath were both wonderful fathers to their kids. Just watching them caused an ache in his chest. At the moment they were all gathered in the back yard playing croquet.
