"Hey, kiddo, take a peek at who's coming our way," President Barton, with a grin stretching from ear to ear, strolled over with Phillip in tow.
Rosemary, catching sight of the duo, was somewhat taken aback, "Grandpa Phillip? You two know each other?"
"Hahaha, talk about serendipity!" Phillip approached Rosemary, his smile beaming, "Back in the day, I was tight with Tanner. You know, one thing led to another, and I got to know all his pals."
It all clicked for Rosemary then.
"Tanner used to brag about having this grandkid who was a real firecracker, even more so than my own. Said you were so out of this world, and I thought he was just blowing smoke."
Phillip had never met Rosemary, only hearing about her through Regan's tall tales, so he never took it seriously.
