They continued in conversation until Grace noticed the hour. “Oh, Morris, I must go . . . my train.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUbesW4DgQ
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjYz0TSywB
“Yes, of course.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpHT9ioEyT

She sipped her tea and set the cup down, “You have no idea how comforting it is to know this. How can I ever thank you?”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8Kn33dStj
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaKKjSe9pn
“No thanks are necessary. I am just happy that your children and you will have a second chance. I thought you would bring Charlie with you.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdghdwyb5N
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBp4DVNeRJ
“Oh, no. I decided early on that he would have a tough time accepting what has happened here.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrZKgsSSx2
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWusMN3U5E6
“Ah … I understand.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKpmseZdkg
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DEgIrPCZ2
Grace got up and walked to the bookshop door, “Thank you again, Morris.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAenxYWS0A
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kUsOsTW34
“It has been my pleasure.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGoN0s5oVq
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wiXQtngFK
“Will I ever see you again?”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTH7MMeaODO
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ4KOg0CRT
“I’ll be here if the need arises, but I think you will be quite busy for a while.” He laughed as he opened the door.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nZPzC0m36

They stopped and looked up at the sound of the tinkling bell.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17JKgArxMg
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkegcIwPILs
“Thomas … every time I hear a bell, I’ll think of Thomas,” Grace smiled. “Goodbye, Morris.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiLk3qCyTT
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52Qkylt0Fx
“Goodbye, my dear.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMUiPYU5CQ
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYadlEBFD8
“Oh, Morris, before I forget. I’m not sure what I will name my son, but his middle name will definitely be Morris,” Grace grinned as she walked away.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzL14Zy0Pq
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCt6FP5ZH3
“Delightful, my dear. Thank you.” Morris closed the door and watched Grace walk toward the Canal Street Bridge. He rubbed his hands together in delight and punched the air with his fist, “Yes!”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43LXQCuzdk
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn3hgKHuxc
Grace did not pause as she crossed the bridge. She knew The Olde Book Shoppe was gone but most assuredly not forgotten.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYL7ufskws
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWuFhkJE8d
She heard the sound of distant thunder as a summer storm approached, or was it the flutter of angel wings? She smiled at the thought as she entered the train terminal.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8E8hRIYEg
