When they got to the airport Angie jumped out of the car and Craig followed by hopping around. Joey went to park the car. They went over to the waiting area, to wait for Koby. Koby's plane arrived.

One by one the passengers walked through the tunnel. First an old man and his wife got off followed by a few more people. One passenger caught Craig's eye.

She was about his age if not a year younger. Her long black hair was half up and half down. She wore a black tube top and jeans that flared out into orange netting. Her large purple eyes captivated him. She looked distance yet down to earth. She had her headphones still on. She looked a bit lost and confused.

Then a boy about Craig's age walked out. He was sort of a pipsqueak. Craig hoped that was not Koby. He had looked up tight. His glasses were almost bigger than his head.

"Excuse me but are you Koby Warner?" Craig asked. "Sorry dude but you got the wrong person," the boy said, "Maybe you should look over there."

"He may not be Koby but I am," A sweet, soft, accented, voice answered.

Craig turned around and was shocked to see the same girl that had caught his eye. His mind went into slow motion as she swung her hair around and pulled off her headphones.

"Yu,,,,yu,,,,yu,,,your Koby?" Craig mumbled.

"Eh oui Last I checked yeah," she smiled at him.

She could barely speak English, but she tried hard to.

"Oooh Craigy," Angie giggled, "It's a girl." Koby looked down at Angie, "You must be Angela."

"Yes I am," she giggled.

She patted Angela on the head. Angie was attached to her in a heart beat. She had loved how kind she was. Joey walked up to them. He did not realize the young girl Craig was talking to was Koby. He smiled at Craig with a stupid grin. He was wondering if Craig had truly loved Manny if he could get over it that easy.

"Can you excuse us Miss?" Joey asked.

"Sure," she paused, "but no offence sir I rather be called Koby."

"You're Koby?" Joey asked Koby answered, "Enfin, je crois. Atleast I think I am."

Craig interrupted, "Yeah, this is Koby our exchange student from France."

Joey looked at her with a shocked look on his face, "I am so sorry, I mean I thought..."

"Thought I was a guy?" Koby asked.

"Yes, we did," Joey shook his head.

"Don't worry Mr. Jeremiah," Koby laughed, "when the lady on the plane asked for my passport she did not believe me, I get this all the time."

Before anyone could say anything else Angela cut in, "Daddy I'm hungry."

"Well we should get something to eat," Joey smiled at Angie, "I am sure Koby is hungry after her trip."

"Not really sir I am just a little tired," Koby answered.

"Please," Joey asked, "Do not call me sir."

"I am sorry," she answered, "I was just raised that way."

"I know sweetie, It's ok I just don't want to face the fact I am old yet," he laughed.

Craig cut in, "Well we need to get your things to the car."

"Yes we do," Joey said. They loaded her things into the car. She was so excited to see everything.

They finally got back to the small town where they lived. Joey smiled at Craig. It was the first time he had seen him smile since that night.
