Chad nodded, giving one last reminder, "Keep your valuables, cell phone, ID, and wallet on you at all times."

"Dude, you're like mom." With that, Molly stuck her tongue out at him playfully. A warm smile lingered on Chad's face.

Molly was startled and dropped her suitcase at the door. "Grandma, Grandpa, there's a dog!"
