Pop Pop came and stood next to her. “So much love and happiness on that wall.”
She nodded. There truly was. “When I first started dating Leo, I told him I was going to teach him how to live life like a Collins, was going to give him advice that would show him how to be happy.”
Pop Pop directed her attention to her family’s photograph again. “I’d say you were successful.”
Yvonne shrugged. “I don’t know. A wise man once told me friendship was just as important as love. Sometimes I wonder…” she teased.
Pop Pop narrowed his eyes. “You’re a minx.”
“You were right, Pop Pop. The friendship Leo and I shared all those years has given us a strong foundation for the love. It’s made everything between us perfect.”
“Friends to lovers truly is magic.”
Reba made a quiet sound, drawing their attention once more.
“I could look at her for hours,” Yvonne confessed, neither of them taking their eyes from the beautiful baby.
“Another gift from God,” Pop Pop said at last, looking at Yvonne.
She kissed her beloved grandfather on the cheek, the two of them returning to the chairs, sitting together.
“Captivating,” she murmured, as she looked from Reba to her dear Pop Pop.
