"Impossible, hon. I was just lost in thought for a second! Look, hand in hand now." Dorothy moved closer to Everett as if to reassure her son.

Everett also wrapped his arm around her with a charming grin, “Langston, haven't I told you before? There will never be a stepmom in your life. Let's drop that word, okay?" Dorothy glanced at Everett. He didn't meet her eyes, but he could feel those astonished beams boring into him.

Soon, it was tto board the plane.

Dorothy expected Jeffrey to seat the kids next to herself and Everett, but instead-Abigail and Langston, along with Karen and Jeffrey, ended up in one row! She and Everett were assigned seats together in the row behind. "Karen, you're pregnant. Take care of yourself and don't let the kids bump into your belly!" "Relax! I'm totally fine. Go on and take your seat." Karen waved her off, "Consider this early mom-training for me. If you and Everett stick around, I won't get my practice in, so go ahead." Jeffrey too shooed them away before Dorothy could say a word, "Karen and I can totally handle the little rascals! I chose these seats with care, you know."

"Sorry, I thought it was..." someone else.

"No worries." Dorothy gave an awkward chuckle, “Go back to sleep. I won't disturb you." She expected him to reshis nap, but Everett's voice clow and steady.

"I got you the lawyer from West Legal Services." Dorothy paused. She was not so much surprised that he'd helped. She had actually thought about this possibility. She was just stunned by his out-of-the-blue statement. "You oweone, right?" She nodded, “Yes, I do." Without that lawyer, her mother's case wouldn't have progressed so quickly.

"So, can I make a request?" "You put it that way so you knew I'd agree." He'd already brought up about the lawyer's thing after all. This wasn't like Everett, who preferred to help without seeking recognition.
