The sun rose up over the fields slowly, lighting the lavender on fire. I think Janie fell asleep because she wasn't talking non-stop like usual. When the sun was all the way up my husband started the car and grasped my hand.
"We did good Marilyn."
"I like to think so." I kissed him lingeringly.
We drove off and I turned on the radio to an American station. G-Eazy's song "Remember you" started playing. I smiled into the sunshine.
