“Once you’re settled in London. Invite them to visit.”
A sad laugh falls from her lips. “You’re joking, right? They’ve barely been outside of New York, let alone the country.”
“What about your brothers?”
“They’re just as bad. Both married their high-school sweethearts and two kids each. I need to come to terms with the fact that they’re not a part of my life anymore.”
“They can be. Just reach out, you might be surprised. And if you ever want to, just say the word, and we’ll be on a flight to New York. I’d love to meet them.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, they made you. Why wouldn’t I want to meet them, see where you grew up?”
“Because of everything I just said.”
“I could talk to them about that, too.” The panic that fills her face makes me laugh. “One step at a time, yeah?”
Nodding, she snuggles into my side. “We really should get dressed.”
“Why? We’ve got absolutely nothing to do.”
