Chapter 270: You Worry About a Lot of Things
Dinnertime arrived, and Scott still wasnt back. Jackie quickly made one of the kids favorites and they ate together at the kitchen table. After dinner, she let them watch a little television before she put them to bed.
Just as she was returning downstairs, she heard tires on the gravel drive. The moon was just rising, and she stood on the porch and watched as Scott backed his red truck beside Blakes huge SUV.
He waved at her as he got out of the truck. Hi, Jackie.
She smiled. Hi. Did you get Blake off to California?
Scott nodded. He should get there around midnight our time. Of course, it will only be about 9:00 there.
Are you hungry? I saved some dinner for you. They walked into the lodge.
Sounds good. He held up a white paper bag. I picked up a little dessert, though.
