Turns out it was a good idea flying out last night, Glens wife is about to have her baby a day earlier than expected. As far as Ashley goes, she wasn’t too ecstatic about hopping on a plane in the middle of the night, but until I told her the reason, she softened a little more.

                “Sorry,” I reply as I place another kiss this time on the corner of her mouth. “Better now?” I ask.

                “No.”
