"I've just told your mom."

"Yeah, I heard," Ivy said sweetly. "Mr. Santos, are you a full-time lecturer now?"

He smiled and said, "I've already retired and teaching is just an interest of mine. I don't lecture much though."

"Oh. What a coincidence!" Had Ivy not selected music, or had the lecturer not called in sick, she would not have gotten the chance to meet Eric.

"Indeed. It's a shocking coincidence. I thought I was dreaming when I saw your name written on the inside flap of your textbook," Eric said. "When did you get home?" "This summer."

"How are you getting along with everyone?"

"Great. They are all very kind and caring toward me."

"What about your relationship with your siblings?"

"Hayden came home from Bridgedale specifically to see me, and he even stayed home for a period of time! Robert and Layla are great as well. Everyone has been great!"

"That's good to hear. Your parents must be over the moon! They have been looking for you for years and have never given up on you." Eric could picture how happy Avery and Elliot were.

"I feel so lucky to be their daughter. I will treat them well from now on," Ivy said.
