“Adeline, this is my Nana. Nana, this is my girlfriend,

Adeline,” I said, letting go of Adeline’s hand so that I could

hug Nana.

“A girlfriend,” Nana said, throwing her arms around me.

“I knew this day would come.” She turned to Addie next and

looked at her closely before hugging her. “I like you

already.”

We went inside and Nana made us tea and asked Addie a

million questions.

“Nana, I didn’t bring her here for you to interview her,” I

said.

“I don’t mind.” Addie smiled at me. “How long were you

Eli’s nanny?”

“From the time he was born until he turned seventeen.”

Nana raised an eyebrow. “He was a good kid most of the

time. Aramis on the other hand . . . ” She shook her head.

“My heart goes out to Patty for having to deal with that

one.”

“I can see that,” Addie said, laughing. “Do you still

visit?”

“Not really. They come and visit me once in a while when

they remember I exist.” She winked.

“I always visit you.” I frowned. “I just have more

responsibilities now.”

“I’m joking. I know. How is it going for you?”

“Good. I think good. I’ve met with the cabinet a few

times. There are two members I trust implicitly and already

ran my idea by. I’m hoping to tell the rest of them at the end

of the month.”

“What idea?” Addie asked.

“My Parliament idea.”

“Oh.” Her eyes widened. “Already?”

“I figure it’ll take us a long time to perfect it, so we better

start now.”
