The next day, XX International Airport in New York.
Rebecca Quentin watched her family and friends entering the security gate with reluctance.
Howard Geoffrey embraced Rebecca Quentin, his gaze also on the departing backs, "Everyone will gather again when there's time."
"I'm just a bit worried about Aunt Clare; she's alone in T City."
"I'll make sure she's settled. If she wants, she can always come to New York and live with us."
Rebecca Quentin turned her face, and gratefully said, "Thank you."
Howard Geoffrey kissed Rebecca Quentin's forehead lightly, "We're a couple, no need to say thank you."
Rebecca Quentin smiled sweetly.
As the two gazed at each other lovingly, Andrew's innocent voice chimed in, "Daddy, Mommy..."
"Hmm?"
Rebecca Quentin turned her face and looked down at the little guy.
Andrew held one hand of Rebecca Quentin's and the other of Howard Geoffrey's, "I want you both to hold my hand."
Rebecca Quentin and Howard Geoffrey both smiled.
