“Guder mariye,” Hannah greeted them. “I am very glad to see you, too. You may put your books at your desks and go play outside before the bell is rung.”
“Guder mariye, Hannah,” Sawyer said as the children cantered out the door. “How are you?”
“I am glad to be back at school,” she admitted. Then, with a faraway note in her voice, she said, “I’m glad the kinner are coming home with me today. I truly missed their presence yesterday. Without them, I felt... I don’t know. I guess I might say I was at a loss.”
Sawyer was flooded with a sense of warmth. “I was concerned your groossdaadi might not have wanted you to care for the kinner any longer,” he ventured. “I didn’t know what I would have done without you.”
Hannah scrunched her eyebrows together. “Didn’t Doris take gut care of them?”
“Jah, she did,” Sawyer replied. “It’s just that she’s not...”
When he didn’t finish his sentence, Hannah inclined her head to meet his eyes. “She’s not what?” she asked.
He leaned forward, so as not to be overheard. “She’s not you.”
