Summary
TK Strand and Carlos Reyes spent years thinking they didn’t deserve happiness, or even a future. But they did – they always did – and now they have it with each other, they can make sure TK’s little brother has a happy future too.
Jonah frowns up at Carlos, sensing his shift in mood, but Carlos grins at him, which means everything is okay. Jonah mimics the grin in the mirror. “Will my teeth be as big as yours one day, Cawlos?”
This gets a loud laugh out of him. “One day, yes,” Carlos says.
Jonah giggles but he’s not sure he’s fully comfortable with the idea. They are awfully large.
Carlos notices that Jonah’s little backpack isn’t fully zipped up, so he zips it.
“Thank you,” Jonah says perfectly.
It makes Carlos ache. Jonah’s speech is coming along beautifully, but for some reason he still remains Cawlos Weyes. Soon, that will fade too, and he will be Carlos Reyes. He’ll nearly cry at his desk when he tells Sam that Jonah can properly pronounce his Rs and THs now.
“Don’t worry, brother, I understand,” Sam ‘Four Kids’ Campbell will say, making a big, loud thing about passing him a box of Kleenex.Series
