"Thank you again."

"Of course!  Here's my number if you ever need to talk.  You have a good night, Mr. Huston." Jessica smiles softly.

"Thanks.  You too, Ms. Lange." He smiles.

Danny shuts the door and leans against it.
He lets out a deep breath and grabs his head.

"Oh Grace, what's happening? I promised to never feel this way again."

***

Thanksgiving.

"Daddy, I've eaten so much, I'm ready to take a nap!"

"Oof!  Me too, baby girl!"

Danny's mother laughs.

"What are you laughing at?"

"You two all laid out and miserable!  You do this every year, just don't over eat!"

"It's Thanksgiving.  Over eating is a must!  Right, Lilah?"

"Right, daddy!"

"Yeah!  Give me five, cutie!"

Delilah high fives Danny then says, "Are you gonna go shopping for the toys I want for Christmas?"

"You want me to go out on Black Friday?"

"It's on sale!"

"Girl loves a bargain." Danny chuckles.

"Are you going, daddy?"

"Yes, Princess."

"You got my list with you?"

"Yes!  All ten of them." He smiles.

"Good!" Delilah grabs his cheeks and kisses him.

"Go now."

"Heh!  Alright, little girl!"

"You gotta go early and get in line!" She shrugs.

"I know, I know. Be good for your grandparents."

"Yes sir!
.. I'm a good girl, daddy!"

"I know you are." Danny chuckles.

"Well I'm off to fight for toys! Wish me luck!"

"Good luck!"

"Good luck, daddy! You've got this!" Delilah gives her father a thumbs up.

"You're so cute!"

"Thank you!" Delilah smiles.

On Danny's drive to the store, he couldn't get his mind off of Grace. It was like she was trying to tell him something.

"Okay.. I get it. Toys on hold, I'm coming to see you, sweetie." Danny said.

Danny stopped to buy flowers, then drove to the cemetery.

"Hello, beautiful. It's snuggle bear!
.. I brought you some flowers. They're your favorite!
Oh and Happy Thanksgiving by the way!
I hope you're well.. of course you are!" Danny chuckles.

"Honey, I've been thinking a lot about you lately..
So has the little shrimp.

I've been thinking about how great of a mother you'd be to Delilah.. thinking about how many kids we'd have by now.. life is so crazy, baby. I wish you were still by my side.. but I know you are still in my heart."

Danny spoke to his wife for a little while longer.
He cried, and he laughed as he thought back on
the wonderful memories he shared with her.

"Well baby.. I better get going. If not, I'll miss out on toys, and little miss Didi will be super upset with yours truly! Speaking of her, look at this list! She wants the entire store, babe!
.. You know I'll get her everything, don't you?" Danny laughs.

"I can't help it, she's pretty awesome and she's really really cute!" He chuckles.

"Anyway, I love you, beautiful girl.. and miss you more than you'll ever know."

Danny then stood up and walked to his car.
Suddenly a breeze came and blew Delilah's list out of his hand.

"Oh no! Stop! Stop! Stop!" Danny ran and stomped his foot down on the piece of paper.

"Got it!" He laughs at himself and picks it up.

Standing up, he saw a woman not too far away.
She looked familiar so he walked a little closer.

He then realized who the young woman was.
Jessica.

"Ms. Lange?"

Jessica looked up with tears pouring down her face.

"I'm so sorry! I should have just left. I was just visiting my wife.. are you— are you okay?"

Jessica looks down then wipes her cheeks.
"Yeah.. I'm fine."

Danny looked down and read the name on the headstone. Nolan Harrison Lange.

Underneath the name was a quote that said,
"Those we have held in our arms for a short while, we hold in our hearts forever."

Danny then looked up to Jessica with his eyes slightly widened.

"Is this.."

".. This is my son."
