  She waved them in and the parents both smiled and returned the friendly greeting. “We’re the ones that should be thanking you. You took time out of your day to invite us over, and make a nice meal.”

  Jeff took their coats and hung them in a nearby closet. As he closed the closet door, he saw that the family had already retreated into the dining room. They must have been hungry. They sure weren’t wasting any time.

  Jeff politely walked in and borrowed the kitchen sink to wash his hands. He threw the hand towel aside, and jointed them in the dining room.

  After sitting in the sturdy, oak dining chair, Jeff tried to be a good host by asking them to introduce themselves. “My name is Jeff. I’m very honored to be Jennifer’s husband, because she is a fantastic woman that is full of love. I apologize but I don’t know any of you.”

  Jennifer made a few clanging sounds in the kitchen, as an aroma of marinara hit the room. Whatever it was, it smelled delicious.

  A couple of seconds of silence followed, before the husband volunteered himself to start. “Okay. My name is Brad. I’m the husband of this wonderful lady.” He patted her shoulder and winked at her. “I work as a systems analyst.”

  Jeff smiled and then peered his eyes over to the wife in the room. “I’m Janice. I actually work as an accountant. Boring job, I know.”

  Jeff perked up and reassured her. “Your job is important. Not all of us can keep the numbers straight on our own. As a banker, I know that to be true.”

  Janice pointed to her daughter, who was wearing a very cute skirt, and child blazer. “This is Emily. She’s going to be in preschool in just a few months. We’re very excited, and know she’ll do well.”

  Finally, Janice pointed to her infant boy, who was sitting in a car seat with his eyes closed. In fact, he was sleeping. “This is Topher. He will be a year old in just a few days. Happy early birthday, Topher!”

  Jeff froze every inch of his body. He didn’t move his eyes, fingers, arms, legs, hands, nothing. He finally opened his mouth, and said just one thing: “Is your last name Frost?”

  Janice smiled at him because she was surprised he knew. “Good guess. How did you know that?”

  THE END
