The Marvelous Elijah’s Return

This is amazing

Silently, Ryan darted his gaze towards Elijah, then at Peach before dragging it to Miss Grace. taking it off her a second later to meet Rookie and watch Matt‘s face.

“Can someone check on James before he burns more than our breakfast?” Ryan finally let it out, his lips twitching into a chuckle.

“Come on, Ryan.” Miss Grace said, struggling to keep a straight face.

Suddenly, Matt cracked up, and everyone joined him, causing the sound of chuckles to echo in the dining room.

Walking through the doorway with a tray, James looked confused at the sight of them laughing, and once they noticed his presence, they all stopped abruptly, looking apologetic and almost guilty. “What‘s so funny?” James asked, setting the tray down next to Ryan and pulling over a chair for himself.

“Nothing,” Elijah said, trying to cover his smile with a cough. “We just thought about some old memories.”

Frowning, James raised an eyebrow and mumbled, “You guys are making fun of me for burning the eggs.”

“Nooo… No! Of course not, James.” Peach mumbled, waving her hands around wildly, and yet her face was red from holding back her laugh.

“Like husband, like wife… both terrible liars. And here I was excited to finally cook for you two.”

“I miss your cooking. No one makes a mean omelet as good as yours.” A faint smile crossed James‘ face at her words and he proudly said, “The secret ingredient is love.”

“That is so cheesy,” Ryan chuckled. Throwing him a hard stare, James frowned and let out, “No one ask you, Ryaaaan.”

“I miss this,” Peach whispered beneath her breath. “I miss when papa‘s presence was with us in the motel…” But Elijah heard her and so did Miss Grace, and both of them rested their palms on the back of her hands at the same time, causing her to smile warmly.

At three o‘clock, The car was ready for Elijah and the others to leave, and as Peach stood outside with her mother and James, she smiled brightly at Elijah with moist eyes.

“Hurry up and come back to me, okay?” Peach sniffed as the wind blew against her cheeks. “I promise,” Elijah leaned forward and gave her a quick peck on the cheek, smiling softly. “I‘ll be back soon.”

Silently, she beamed at him as he withdrew from her, watching him walk towards the car with Ryan, Rookie, and Matt.
