Charlie felt wistful as he watched Nessie ride her mother's old bike. He remembered the skinned knees and tears that came with teaching his daughter to ride. Charlie had lovingly restored Bella's bike, even giving it a fresh coat of paint. Nessie's eyes lit up when she saw the shiny bicycle. Unlike her mother, there was no trepidation as she sat on the seat, put her tiny feet on the petals, and took off. She flew down the driveway, bronze curls jutting out of her helmet. His heart ached for a moment; there would be no tears to dry today.
