The light in he surgery room turned
green. The doctor came out.
“He was brought here on time. Now
he’s stable, but he’s too weak to leave the
hospital.”
I calmed down. Jake’s parents went to
pay the bill, Jake and I went to see
Grandpa.
Grandpa awoke three days later. He
sighed and wiped my tears.
“I’m too old. It was just a fall and I
fainted for three days.”
I held his hand.“Grandpa, you’re not old! You’ll live long and watch my baby
grow!”

Wanda was O, Grant B. The baby
wasn’t his.
Grant’s family left the hospital

and Grant couldn’t wait any longer.
He arrived in Dallas at 8 PM, looking disheveled. I almost didn’t recognize him.
He called my name, and I finally
made the connection between the man in
front of me and the man I used to be crazy
for.
I looked behind him.“You came alone?”
