No Cork, its not the end.
"Today Momma?" asked Annie.
"Yes Annie, daddy's coming home today" laughed Stress.
Stress tied a blue ribbon around Annie's light brown braids.
"Come on!" said Bookie "the ship will be arriving soon"
"Jack's coming home today" said Revolution as she smoothed the hair back from Itey's forehead.
"Really?" he whispered smiling.
"Yeah. The others should be on their way to the docks"
Jack stood on the bow of the boat as Manhattan came into view.
"Its good to be home" said Dutchy as he came to stand next to Jack.
"Does Bookie know ya comin home?" asked Finn.
"Nah, I couldn't git a letta home. Legend?"
"I tole 'er dey might be letting me home"
Stress stood on the dock holding Annie's hand. Her long curly hair whipped her face as the boat came into the harbor. She held her hair back with her hand and looked intently at the ship.
"Theres Daddy" she whispered into Annie's ear.
"Whose that?" asked Legend pointing to a tall, dark haired boy.
"It kinda looks like Finn" whispered Skint.
"Yeah" replied BonBon "Don't say it, don't wanna git her hopes up"
Finn gasped, there she was. She looked just like he remembered. Tall, willowy, with her long blond curls flowing around her like liquid silk.
"Theres Legend" he whispered.
"And Bookie" said Dutchy smiling.
"And Stress and the kids" said Jack "STRESS!"
Stress looked up and smiled.
"JACK!"
"I LOVE YOU"
The boat pulled up to the docks. The girls rushed up to greet the boys.
"Dutchy?" said Bookie...
