Please don't stop commenting or reviewing because of this; they've always appeared after the glitch has been fixed in the past and they should this time, too. Thanks!
Drabble 14: Welcomed Greetings
Isabella, Violeta's nearly 16 year old niece, loved living at High Chaparral. She'd come to help while Señora Cannon was pregnant.
"Are you okay, Señora?"
"Just tired, thank you, Isabella," Victoria said as the teen helped her up.
The sounds of horses approaching could be heard through the open doors. Moments later, her brother Mano's laughter echoed happily after Buck's somewhat butchered punchline.
Following welcoming hugs and kisses, Buck pulled a telegram from his pocket for his sister-in-law.
She opened and read it excitedly. Her expression of concern changed to a bright, though tired, smile.
"John will be home soon!"
