"I promise ma, I'll come back… before Christmas this time," Becca assured her as they said goodbye before they had to make their way to the airport. She glanced at her boyfriend before giving her mother a hug.

"I hope you'll bring him along too," Mrs. Swindell told her softly, not having missed the gesture. "I'd like to get know him better," she added, her hidden message not going unnoticed; it meant both her parents seemed to approve of their daughter's new boyfriend.
