“I think you’re going to get a lecture from the doctor today.”
“Okay. I promise, you’re the sweetest thing I’ll bring with me.”
She turned to him and said, “That’s so corny it’s cute.”
He kissed her briefly again and added, “And true. I love you, Gia.”
“I love you too, Roger.”
Three words he knew he’d never grow tired of hearing her say. “So, scone again, I take it?”
She laughed. “How about a fruit salad?”
Roger grumbled. “So much for your father liking me.”
“True, but my mother will appreciate you even more, and I love you. What more can you want?”
Absolutely nothing.
