Jane looked up and asked "Ready to leave? I think the boys have already packed everything into the chopper." There wasn't hurt or heat in her gaze. She knew this was the right thing to do for Kristin and was glad the young woman knew it as well. Of course she would miss her, but there was such things as visiting and letter-writing and the satellite visual that each Legacy computer was capable of.
Surprise lit Kristin's face for half a moment, then replaced with a rueful grin. She should have known that Jane would know probably before Kristin herself did. "I just...I want...Jane, I'm sorry to be leaving you," She was still at a loss for words, somewhat uncertain what she should say. "I'll miss you, but we'll talk often..." Giving Jane a small hug, she whispered, with tears threatening, "Thank you." __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
