Just a little something I made for the next chapter.
Tom held out his cupped hands… and a happy giggle escaped from Ginny’s chest.
Resting in Tom’s pale palms was an assortment of brightly-colored gumdrops.
Ginny formed a cup with her own hands, into which the boy gently placed the candies, careful not to spill a single one.
“Goodbye, Ginny,” he said warmly.
She smiled up at him. “Bye, Tom.”
For the very first time, the unhappy child smiled back at her. Waving cheerfully, he ran back to the woman and took her by the hand.
Ginny blinked… and the pair of silhouettes disappeared into the orange sunrise.
