Going Home

Part 59

Reaching the privacy of their room, as soon as the door was shut Grace wrapped her arms around Josh’s waist and held him tight. She was so proud of the way he’d handled that situation with his mother. He’d come a long way from when they’d arrived.

He held her just as tight.

Moving her head back so she could look up at him Grace smiled “you did good, you know. Margaret looked devastated.”

Looking down at her, his expression serious, he said “I know.”

Then watching him she asked “are you okay about it?”

“Yeah, but being able to talk about him is going to take some getting used to.”

Grace nodded “for all of you.”

Then moving out of his arms Grace turned and crossed the room to get out some clean clothes, intending to go and have a shower.
