The Bridge
“Like everyone in the room, she watched the scene through a veil of tears, unable to believe that here—on Christmas Eve—Charlie Barton was waking up.The doctor explained to the group that Charlie needed a quieter room for the waking-up process. “It’s happening very fast. That’s a good sign.” He checked the clock. “I’d like to monitor him for the next several hours. If you could come back . . . maybe after dinner?”Molly pulled Ryan aside as they headed for the elevator. “I have some business to take care of. I’ll meet you for dinner before we head back here.”“Okay.” He looked surprised and a little hurt. They made a plan to meet at a diner on Main Street in downtown Franklin. Molly called for a ride and spent the next few hours in the office of a branch of her bank. She finished what she’d set out to do ten minutes before the bank’s early closing.Others from the group joined them for dinner, so the conversation wasn’t focused on the two of them. Molly was grateful.
