The golden afternoon light spills through the open door, catching dust motes as they dance around the silhouette in the doorway. Dess Holiday stands there, a lopsided grin on her face, a young Kris balanced on one shoulder and Noelle on the other. Their giggles fill the quiet street.

You both just stand there, the silence stretching, waiting for someone to break it.
