“Woof.”

She heard the child’s voice the same time Al did.

“Woof, woof!” Al finally raised his big head and turned brown eyes in her direction.

“Hey, Al! Wanna go for a ride?”

“Woof woof woof!” came the answer, just as a tall, thin boy ran into the room.

“Hey, Al, what are—”

The boy skidded to a stop, turning a pair of dark eyes toward Grace. He had the same head of thick dark waves as Nico, the same angular features and easy smile. He was dressed in a warm jacket and knitted cap, and his gloved hands held a bright blue leash.

“Whoa,” he said, sounding exactly like his uncle. Grace assumed this child had to be Nico’s nephew, the one who took his dog for walks and lived nearby. “Uncle Nico has company!” the boy called over his shoulder before returning to Grace.

“Hi,” he said.

The dog suddenly came to life and let out another happy bark before easing himself off the bed to greet his friend.

“Hi. I’m Grace,” she said, wishing she was dressed but glad she wore flannel at the very least. The boy’s mother stepped into the room and stopped as soon as she saw Grace.
