“Leah?” A woman called from the porch. “Are you ready?”
“Ya,” she answered. “Coming.” She smiled at him. “I’m glad you were with me tonight.”
“Me, too.”

“We did,” he said. And then, without another word, she turned and hurried off, leaving him standing there, staring after her and wishing she wasn’t going.
