Pete was pumping Mason’s hand. “Congratulations. When’s the big day?”
“Fourth of July,” Mason said.
“Give or take a day or two either way,” Annajane cautioned.
“It’ll be the fourth, no matter what, as far as I’m concerned,” Mason said. “The most important day of my life.”
“Why’s that?” Pete asked, looking from Annajane to Mason.
“Because that’s the day Daddy saved Mama,” Sophie volunteered. “It was a long time ago. She was dressed up like a pixie, that’s an elf, kind of, for the Fourth of July parade, and some bad boys pushed her down, but then Daddy rode up in the fun car and saved her.”
“And she saved me right back,” Mason said, wrapping his arms around Annajane’s waist.
“And they lived happily ever after,” Sophie declared. But Annajane snaked an arm around Sophie’s waist and drew her into an embrace that had finally, finally come full circle. “We all lived happily ever after,” she said, gently correcting her daughter.
