The Year-end Party

Dave looked around uneasily, and his grip on Hester's hand couldn't help but tighten.

Hester turned to look at him and whispered, "It's okay. Your daddy and I are here."

"... Yes. "Dave leaned close to Hester and bit his lower lip.

Dave was very worried that Braelyn would suddenly arrest him, but luckily, when he got back to the airport from the police station and got on the plane before it took off, he didn't see Braelyn.

Looking at Dave's tense body, Hester's heart ached for him. She picked up a cup of hot milk and pressed it against his little face.

Dave froze. When he turned and saw it was Hester, the wariness in her eyes faded away. "Mammy..."

Hester sighed and gave him warm milk. She sat next to him and took his little body in her arms." Don't be afraid. We have left the United States. Even if Braelyn grows wings, she can't catch us."

Dave took a sip of milk, set the glass aside, and curled up obediently in Hester's arms.
