Chapter 40
"Okay, Matt, are you sure you got all the luggage in the car?" Amy
yelled as she sat in the car.
"Yes Amy. Everything's loaded. I did a double check."
"Well where's Corinne?"
"Relax Aims. She's probably just making sure that she doesn't forget
anything."
"Yeah. Umm...did you talk to Jeff last night?"
"Yes I did talk to my brother. He's good."
"Is he coming to the airport?" Amy asked slyly.
"Amy! I don't know."
"Don't know what?" Corinne asked as she got in the big SUV Matt had
rented for all of her luggage.
"Don't know what the time is. I'm sure we'll get to JFK in good time."
Matt replied, sending a warning glance towards Amy.
"Oh okay. Well I checked ever nook and cranny in the house. Everything
is here."
"Alright off we go then."

As they entered the airport, Matt and Amy helped Corinne bring all of
her luggage to the check in desk. Corinne stood back and looked around
but to no avail...no Jeff. She sighed.
"Thank you guys so much." She said as she hugged both of them.
"I'm um...sorry Jeff couldn't be here." Matt said softly.
"Yeah, but if that was my fault. We never should have gotten together
you know. You guys were right. It only hurt us both." She said
tearfully.
"That's not true you guys were great together." Amy said getting teary
eyed herself.
"Thanks. I really have to go." She said as her flight was announced on
the announcement system.
"Oh wait. Jeff um wanted me to give this to you." Matt said handing
over the pocket watch Corinne had given Jeff on their 6-month
anniversary.
"Um...you keep it. I've got to go." She said turning away and walking
into the plane.
"Bye Cori. Give us a call when you get over there." Amy called out.
Matt waved her off too, and then was shocked when Amy slapped him on
the back of his head.
"What the hell is wrong with you? Why did you give that to her right
before she was leaving? I mean Matt why?" Amy yelled angrily.
"Because I asked him to." Jeff said quietly. He accepted the watch
that Matt handed back to him.
"Jeff! What are you..."?
"I was going to say goodbye. I couldn't. You guys want to give me a
ride?" He said somberly.
"Sure bro. How you holding up?"
"I don't know. Let's go." Jeff said.
"Okay, Matt, are you sure you got all the luggage in the car?" Amy
yelled as she sat in the car.
"Yes Amy. Everything's loaded. I did a double check."
