... and the back porch of the Branson home. The sound of the warm engine ticking as it cooled down was the only sound other than three people breathing, that could be heard in the cab for a moment or two. Then the squeak of a screen door drew their attention to the two figures exiting the house to stand at the top of the steps on the porch. Annie, in a light blue summer dress with an apron wrapped around her waist, stood holding a boy, no a young man’s hand. The lad stood a head taller than his mother but there was a familial resemblance in the eyes.

Lee, inhaled, almost a gasp and she felt her heart race with joy at seeing her beloved. Duke, almost gasped as well. Caroline was right, Tom could be Duke at a younger age. Caroline noted both Lee and Duke’s reactions but hers was somewhat quieter and contemplative. She studied the woman on the porch with a critical eye.

I have tea and lemonade, or coffee if you like. I have some pie if your interested too.” Annie said, practically wringing her hands as she spoke her invitation.

Caroline reached out with both hands and grasped Annie’s. The two women stood motionless for another heartbeat or two as they looked into one another’s eyes, searching, weighing, maybe even judging the other. In the end, Annie smiled warmly as Caroline too was smiling and the two women wrapped each other in a warm embrace.

Tom, who had joined his mother at the bottom of the steps had only half watched that unfold as his eyes couldn’t help but be torn between Lee, and Duke her father. Duke had locked his eyes on the young man the moment he saw him and could barely tear his eyes away from him.
