He was alarmed to see how pale she was. He held her close, his heart thudding against his ribs in fright, as she slowly focused her eyes on his. What happened, Liv, is it-?

A couple of days later at lunch she got up the nerve to ask him about her. Ray was eating and jerked his head up, raised his eyebrows, stammered, and said she was just an old friend he knew from school. "Oh," said Livy. Ray didn't offer any more information and after lunch went back to the fields to work. Oh, what field is he in? Oh," said the woman, "I know where that is.". Livy was perplexed. Who was she, and how did she know the farm so well? Did you get my letters? Demanded Amy, without so much as a ...

The Accident, Part 2. Recovery, Part 3. It was such a lovely fall day that on their way home they decided to go for a drive. Livy said to Ray, 'Is there something you want to tell me?

The Night of Edward's Letter. The baby kicked and she looked down at her expanding middle. She rubbed the spot where she had just been kicked and felt a foot! She rubbed the foot and it pushed back for a moment and then disappeared. She wished she could tell Ray. But it just seemed too intimate. Maybe she could just take his hand and place it on her stomach the next time the baby kicked. No that seemed to forward. She looked at the clock. Where was he? It was already dark. Come sit down.".

Livy sat down at the dining table and looked at the candles. They had burned down and were dripping on the tablecloth. Ray's tablecloth. Ray's house. Ray's rules. She put them out and sat in silence. Where was this factory? She never remembered seeing it. She wondered if there really was a factory. She picked at the cold wax and was able to get it off the tablecloth. Just a slight stain was left and she thought she could wash it out tomorrow. I wonder what the rule is about that?

Livy thought back to earlier in the evening. She had gotten ready for bed at 9:00 pm, turned out the light and gone to the rocking chair to think about Ray.
