Wesley nodded with a smile. “I’ll leave you two alone then.”

Maia narrowed her eyes. Why would anyone wear a mask on a hot day like this?

“Hope! Hope!” The door slammed open, and Homer almost stumbled as he stormed in. “Are you okay? How the hell did it happen?”

Seeing him so anxious, Hope quickly said, “I’m fine, Dad. Have you seen Mom yet? How is she?”

“She’s fine, and all she needs is rest. Thank God that the two of survived the accident!” The incident was too much for an elderly man like Homer.
