The Right Touch
Epilogue
A/N1: I'm the type that always wants to know what happened next. Here's a wedding but perhaps not the one you expected. I hope you enjoyed this story as much as I did. I love Bobby and Sue together--ah, love!
A/N2: Thank you for all the reviews. And yes, Kimberly, I think it could be one of those Hallmark or Lifetime feel good movies—with Rick and Deanne, of course. Anybody knows anybody who knows anybody there?

One year later
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here to join this man and this woman in holy matrimony," the minister began.
Bobby and Sue smiled at each other recalling their own wedding nearly a year ago. Despite the concern of others about the brief time they'd known one another, neither Bobby nor Sue saw a reason to wait.
So, slightly more than a month after actually meeting, they were married in a small ceremony attended by their families and close friends. As promised, Myles had provided the flowers for the simple service held at the Hudson house. Megan was the flower girl with Jack as the best man and Lucy the maid of honor. Levi had done a good job as the ring bearer with Josh supervising.
And now a year later, Lucy was finally marrying Myles. A beaming groom waited patiently for his bride to come down the aisle in the church the Lelands had been attending for generations with his best man, Bobby, at his side. Sue preceded her friend down the aisle happiness shining in her eyes.
Smiling faces followed the bride and her mother down the aisle. Since her father had passed away several years ago, Lucy had insisted her mother be the one to give her away. She declared she didn't care what people thought—it was her wedding. Myles had agreed. He was so happy Lucy finally set the date that he would've agreed to anything. Well, anything he declared except doing the chicken dance at the reception.
Bobby's eyes sparkled as he looked at his wife. Wife. It was still hard to believe that he was married to Sue. It had been and continued to be a challenge to mesh their two worlds but those conflicts had more to do with being two independent people—male and female—rather than hearing and deaf. He had never been happier.
Sue's eyes moved from Bobby's to the little girl next to her. She and Bobby watched the Hudson children often. It was good practice for when they had their own, he declared. Besides, he reminded her, they owed Jack a huge debt of gratitude for helping Bobby realize his heart belonged to Sue.
Sue hugged to herself the secret she planned to share with Bobby after the wedding. A pregnancy kit indicated she was expecting and the doctor's visit yesterday confirmed it. In seven and a half months they would be parents themselves. With The Right Touch thriving and Bobby at her side, her world was perfect. And to think, she thought with a smile, it all began with a phone call.
