“So, I guess we have some catching up to do, huh?”
Delia sighed and pulled Lilly in for another long embrace. “I can’t wait. But let’s do it over a drink, honey. It’s been a hell of a day.”
The End
*****
The novel, Delia, ends here, but her story does not. Just as our lives are not defined by one extraordinary event, neither was hers. Delia and Alice lived many years together. If you wish to continue their journey with them, I have written a short story epilogue for this novel, which you can download free from my website to use on your computer or e-reader. Along with the remainder of Delia’s story, you will find some artwork inspired by Delia and her life. You can download this free story at: www.jnlavelle.com/epilogue
