“Mommy haven’t cto see you during the past years.
Please don’t get mad at my mommy.

Mommy would have visited you sooner if I hadn’t been too little to come.”
He reached into his pocket and pulled out yet another blossom.
Rachel was taken aback and puzzled as to when Joey picked the flowers.
He placed the two flowers next to the grave.
“Auntie, Mommy and I cin a hurry, and we didn’t get a lot of flowers for you.
I simply plucked two flowers on the way and presented them to you.
I’ll bring you a magnificent bouquet of flowers the next tI visit, so don’t get so upset with me, please.”
His solemn tone amused Rachel.
She stroked the tip of his nose with her finger and muttered, “Aunt Abby treasures you the most.
She’ll never be mad at you for anything.”

Joey was sitting obediently in the child seat while listening to the announcement on the radio.
Then he muttered in a low tone,
“Gentlefolk? Why does it sound so familiar?”
Meanwhile, Rachel was helping the boy fasten the seat belt when that particular community was mentioned.
For a moment, she stopped what she was doing.
