AN: I really do hate The Wizard of Oz because of the flying monkeys. I will not watch the show…EVER! Lol!
The next two days were full of fun at the local park and relaxing at home. Sara watched Edgar in the back yard with his kids. She smiled as the kids tried to tackle their father as he went for a touch down.
"Hey! Whoa! This isn't fair! Three against one just isn't fair," Edgar laughed as his kids sat on top of him. "Y'all play with each other for a while. I'm going to go rest my aching body for a while." The kids laughed at Edgar as he limped off of the homemade football field.
"Are you getting old?" Sara laughed handing Edgar a bottle of water.
"Some days I feel older than I really am." Edgar took a drink of his water, "So, the kids go to school tomorrow. Are you interested in doing something tomorrow?"
"Sure, what do you have in mind?" Sara took a drink of her water, looked at Edgar and smiled.
Edgar and Sara sat under the shade trees at the Waterfall Garden. "This has got to be the most beautiful spot in Seattle," Sara sighed.
"It is where I came, to think, shortly after Louise was killed. This was one of our favorite spots to just get away for a bit."
"Thank you for bringing me here." Sara looked away, "Listen, you and the kids seem to be doing ok now so I was thinking about leaving on Wednesday and heading home."
"What! Why?" Edgar was in shock by this announcement. He always knew Sara would eventually go home but not so soon.
"Edgar. I have a live I have to get back to. I have a business to run, bills to pay, a house to clean…" Sara's voice trailed off as she looked back at Edgar.
"What if I don't want you to go? Would you stay?"
"Why would you want me to stay?" Sara was really wanting him to take her in his arms and tell her that he loved her.
"I don't know. I've just really enjoyed having you around." Edgar got up from the table they were sharing. "Come on, let's go walk."
By the time Edgar and Sara pulled up to his house, the school bus was just arriving. "Hey guys! Did y'all have a great day at school?" Sara took Stefanie's backpack so she didn't have to drag it behind her.
"I sure did Sara. Here, I drew a picture for you." Stefanie presented her master piece to Sara.
"Stefanie," Sara squatted down and hugged the little girl, "this is the most beautiful picture anyone has ever given me. Thank you, I will treasure it always."
The four Hansen's went into the house. Sara looked at the picture once more; the picture was of the Hansen family with Sara standing next to Edgar. Above them was Louise in angel wings smiling down on them.
