“Our children will be faced with the Legends.”
Chris smiled, “And they will be equipped to handle the problem. What good is retirement if you don’t use it?”
Allison smiled and reclined on her chair. She reached over and took his hand. He wrapped his fingers around it and held it tenderly. He smiled as he heard Michael screaming as he jumped another wave. Alley was getting pretty good at pulling him. He raised his head and saw a pink and blue sail moving on the waves out from Michael. Audrey’s spirit was watching her son grow up. He lowered his head and was amazed at his good fortune at having two incredible women love him. Now it was his turn to return it. He had a lifetime to catch up.
A Barrier Pod flashed overhead trailing a rope; it was Willow. He looked up in time to see Luke run by with a surfboard under his arm yelling at Michael. He sat up and saw Lukas and Salud following Luke. Right behind them, Stoney and Kathy came down the dune pulling a large wheeled cooler. Allison struggled to sit up and Chris pulled her up. “Hey! You can’t start this party without us!” They turned and saw Eve and Nudge walking down the dune with Chad and Julie. They all carried two large bags of food and the Mitchell children ran past them toward Michael and Luke. Allison looked into Chris’s eyes and saw his happiness. He was right. He was right where he belonged; surrounded by those that loved him. She resolved to never ask about the future again or worry about it, either.
An hour later, the family that forced her to go to Eden arrived and Allison ran to greet them. She walked with them down to the beach and smiled. She realized she didn’t need anything more than her family who were now here with them on this special beach. She would never want more.
