“Are you going to the birthday supper celebration tomorrow?” James asked.

Mari nodded. “Sure am.”

“We’d be glad to have you and Zachary ride with us.”

“Are you certain we’ll all fit in your buggy?” she asked.

He grinned. “The more the merrier. Besides, if you come along, I won’t have to drive with one of my sister’s twins in my lap. You can hold him.”

She laughed with him. “I’d be glad to come with you.” And then she just stood there for a moment looking at him.

I think he’s the best friend I’ve ever had, she thought. Better than any man I’ve ever known. I trust him to do what he says he’ll do. And he’s been such a help with Zachary.

“Good,” James said. He met her gaze and then held it.

It was a strange moment, standing there, her looking at him, him looking at her. As if there was something else to be said, but she couldn’t think what it could be.

“See you tomorrow, James,” she finally said, making herself walk away.

“See you tomorrow, Mari.”
