"Chloe… Come down here." Rayford Steele calls up the stairs after his daughter. She ran into her bedroom and slams the door. Rayford sighs.
"I should have known she'd take it this way. Reba and I should have told her." Rayford thinks to himself. Rayford looks at his uniform sitting on the chair. He picks it up. He walks into the living room.
"How is Chloe doing?" Reba asks standing up.
"She's furious with me. She stormed up the stairs." Rayford replies.
"I am sure that we can explain it to her later. I mean, you and Irene have been divorced for 2 years." Reba says hugging him.
"I sure hope so… How did your kids take the news?" Rayford asks.
"They were more upset that I was moving to Mount Prospect than the fact of me getting married." Reba replies.
"Really?" Rayford asks. He sighs. "Well, I have to get ready for my flight. I leave in a few minutes." He kisses her cheek.
"I love you." Reba says to him.
"I love you too. Now when are you kids coming to see us? I haven't seen them since we got married." Rayford responds.
"When they get used to it, they will come down. We have to give them time." Reba explains.
"Okay… I just wish Raymie would have stayed with me. I mean, I know he loves Irene, but since he is the only child I have at home, I would like him to be with me." Rayford replies.
"I know you do." Reba says with a smile. "You better go… Let me talk to Chloe, maybe we can make some sense of some different things that you can't."
"Okay… My princess charming." Rayford replies. Reba smiles her Broadway lit smile. Rayford lets go of her hand and walks out the door.
