Chapter 1
It's a few minutes after New Years when Sarah and Seth step outside the house so she can say goodbye to him while everybody else is inside helping Camille and Zeek clean up from thier big Braverman New Years Eve bash before everybody leaves for the night to tuck thier kids into bed.
Seth is standing next to his car door.
"so." she says looking at him with her arms crossed over her chest
"I'm glad you came to this thing tonight." she tells him
"yeah, he smiles "I am too, this was fun." he tells her
"always is." she says and smiles back at him
"I think the kid's and a little bit of me also enjoyed having you here." she tells him
"well good I wanted you to know that I'm going to be around alot more." he tells her
"Seth?" she questions
"what?" he answers
"what's gotten into you?" she wonders
"nothing I just found a closer place that's all." he tells her
"a closer place, a closer place to Berkeley?" she wonders
"yeah." he tells her
"you mean you're moving away and out of Fresno?"
"thinking about it." he tells her
"wow you really have changed." she tells him
"well I'm trying." he tells her
Sarah just smiles looking down at her sneakers.
"I wanted to do it for the kids." he tells her
Sarah looks up and halfs smiles at him "wow." she says
"I know you can you believe it!" he says excitedly
"And, if you don't find a place?" she wonders
Seth rolls his eyes "pff, come on Sarah don't jinx me now." he tells her
