Helen had been waiting for them at the door. As their car pulled up outside the Hadley residence, she quickly turned over her shoulder and reported happily, “Mr. and Mrs. Hadley, they’re here!”

Charlie and Julia made their way to the door, witnessing Nathaniel and Christina approaching the house. each holding one of their children.

“Grandpa, Grandma!” Lucas and Camila released their parents’ hands and ran to their grandparents.

“Oh, Lucas, Camila.” Julia bent down to give her grandchildren a warm hug.

Nathaniel and Christina were left behind, forgotten by everyone else.

Nathaniel and Christina took their places at the end of the table.

An array of dishes were served, carefully selected to cater to the children’s preferences.
