State of Grace: The Sequel
Chapter 2
Beginning
(This part was not added to the beginning of the last post. My
apologies.)
The next day, Luke was gone before Grace woke up. Somehow still
exhausted, she got up and began to make breakfast. Her two kids
slowly trekked down into the kitchen by following the smell of
bacon, eggs and sausage. This was one of Grace’s favorite
moments of the day. Her sleepy kids would sit patiently at
her table, not talking but smiling at their mother. Then just as
Grace laid down the food, Luke would enter the kitchen quietly and
watch his family. It was also one of his favorite moments of the
day. He never failed to take them by surprise. Usually Sarah would
shout, “Daddy!” and they would all smile at him. Grace
would give him a kiss and their breakfast would commence.
