“Focus on your meal,” Melba said, dabbing Joy’s mouth with a napkin.
“Mr. Flynn might be having his own family dinner about now.”
“Alright then.”
As evening progressed, the brief winter day faded quickly into night.
Switching on the TV, Hadley joined the two other adults and Joy on the couch, enjoying ssnacks while they
watched Joy’s favorite Christmas movie.
Cuddled up in Hadley’s embrace, Joy grew sleepy. “Mom, do you think Mr. Flynn has finished his dinner yet?”
“Not just yet,” Hadley responded, peering out the window to spare Joy any disappointment. “Mr. Flynn might be
taking his time, perhaps enjoying a drink.”
“Oh,” Joy muttered, her eyelids heavy. “Do you think he'll still come?”
“Feeling tired?” Hadley asked gently, not wanting to crush her hopes. “Why don’t you take a short nap? I'll make

Looking visibly tired, Linda simply nodded her agreement. “Understood.”
Once they reached the garage, they were greeted by Phillips.
Glancing at his watch, Eric asked, “How many vehicles did you arrange?”
“Two, Mr. Flynn,” Phillips replied.
“Good.” Eric nodded, then said, “Take Linda back. Grandma and my brother are expecting her.”
“Understood, Mr. Flynn.”
Linda looked confused as she turned to Eric. “Aren't you coming with me?”
Eric shook his head. “I've got another matter to attend to.”
“What's more urgent right now?”
