Chapter 29 - The New Photograph After the party, Grant found Lily sitting beneath the old photograph of her mother.

He sat beside her.

“You okay?”

She nodded.

“Mommy would like my cake.”

“I think she would.”

Lily held up another photograph.

It showed her, Grant, Marisol, Thomas, and Stallone.

Everyone was laughing.

Lily studied it.

“Daddy?”

“Yeah?”

“Can I put this next to Mommy's picture?”

Grant smiled.

“Of course.”

She placed it beside the old photograph.

Two generations.

Two kinds of love.

Two chapters of a family.

Grant looked at them together.

The past was still there.

It always would be.

But now it no longer frightened him.

Because Lily wasn't trapped inside it.

Neither was he.
