Maggie crouched beside him, her hand covering his in a silent gesture of support.

Your parents are coming, arent they? Sanford nodded, his jaw tight.

At that moment, Rosalynn approached, her expression concerned.

She had been watching the basketball game with her mother but had noticed their somber expressions from afar.

Sanford, Maggie, she asked gently, is something wrong? Sanford met her gaze and explained, Rosalynn, my parents found out about my injury.

Theyll be visiting tomorrow. Rosalynns smile faltered, and she lowered her gaze apologetically.

I wanted to ensure your legs healed quickly to ease your parents as is Im for the worries, my responsibility.

truly sorry delay.

Sanford offered a gentle smile, his tone warm.

Its okay, Rosalynn.

I already feel much better.

Im sure it wont be long before I regain feeling in my legs.

Rosalynn knew he was just trying to comfort her, which only deepened the guilt gnawing at her heart.

She loathed her inability to help him stand up again, despite her best efforts.

Healing took time.

Sanford broke the silence with a quiet sigh.

Rosalynn, my parents are coming over tomorrow.

My mom can bew overly anxious and emotional.

I just wanted to let you know ahead of time.

Please dont take it to heart if she says or does anything out of line.

Sanford knew his mothers temperament and was worried she might inadvertently offend the Moreno family.

Rosalynn replied, I understand. You dont need to worry about us.

No matter what your mother says or does, we wont get upset.

After all, Sanford was injured because of them.

If she were in his mothers shoes, shed feel resentful too.

Nearby, Shari listened quietly, her expression unreadable.

Sanfords parents were coming tomorrow.

Perhaps there was something she could do to make the most of this situation.
