“Any child is a blessing, but a girl would honor me if she turned out like her mother. And if you wouldn’t mind…”
“Yes?”
“I’d like to give her my grandmother’s name.”
“I’d like that,” I quickly said, smiling up at him.
Lorenzo smirked and pushed Trouble away when he tried to put his head between us again. “You didn’t even ask her name. What if it’s Bertha or Pablo?”
“Then I suppose you’ll be beating up a lot of people. In a strange way, your grandmother brought us together, so I’d like that.”
We neared the porch and Austin leaned over the railing, realizing what conversation was coming next. Trouble galloped toward the end of the porch and raised his head so Maizy could pet him. She giggled and stuck her hands through the slats of the railing, rubbing his smooth coat.
“So?” I asked, slowing my pace and turning to face him.
“So what?”
I patted his chest lightly. “You won’t get away with teasing me for long, Thunder. You’ll find there are some things I’m impatient about. So what was your grandmother’s name?”
Lorenzo looked down at me proudly, the wind kicking up his straight hair and blowing it away from his face. He lifted my hand and placed it across his heart, giving me a wink. And there it was—that twinkle in his eye. His love shining through. I felt his heart beating against my hand, a new rhythm of life that returned an emotion I hadn’t felt in a long time. A single word fell from his lips.
“Hope.”
