“Sis, I love you!” With Cynthia’s approval, she felt confident about their father’s.

“I may be busy on the 6th. I have something to take care of,” Cynthia clarified, not

wanting to inflate Shirley’s expectations.

“No, it’s on the 7th.” Shirley’s eyes tw inkled with joy, and she was over the moon.

Cynthia paused mid-chew. The 7th? Was that not the same date as Captain’s return?

Shirley noticed her sister’s change of expression. “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing.” Cynthia did not want to disappoint her sister, so she reassured her, “Just let me

know the details once you guys have decided on a place.”

She decided that after meeting Shirley and her boyfriend on the 7th, she would head

Tanz feigned displeasure, then immediately invited her to a game of chess, growing bored

with his usual companions.

“Sure.”

A soldier soon brought the chessboard. Old Man Tanz took the white pieces while Cynthia

A few dozen moves into the game, while pondering his next move, he casually asked

Cynthia, “Do you have someone you like?

“No,” Cynthia replied, focused on the game.

“What if I introduced you to someone?” Old Man Tanz suggested, already considering a
