"Anyone ready to start a new life?" Tanner asked.
"Right here!" Kayleigh called out as she raised her hand.
"Me, too!" Vanessa said, doing what her daughter did.
"All right then. Let's..."
Kayleigh and Vanessa said it with him at the same time. "Let's roll!"
Two long, full days later they were in Oklahoma City where Kayleigh finished the school year as they limped by in the one-bedroom apartment. Two months later they were in a brand new, five-bedroom home that was nearly 3,000 square feet; one that much cost less than the amount Tanner had received for his father's land, leaving them a whole lot of money to start their new lives together with (and to help Vanessa's aging mother who was now unable to travel.)
Two months later, Vanessa and Tanner were married with Kayleigh serving as her mom's maid of honor.
Kayleigh started her first year of high school with a beautiful new wardrobe but vowed never to be like the girls who'd treated her so horribly. She soon had more friends than she'd ever dreamed of—both boys and girls—and couldn't have been happier with her new life or the gorgeous man she'd started calling 'dad'.
Initially, it was just a joke. But as Tanner became her second best friend and the person she turned to for advice and later even parental love, the word just seemed to fit, and 'dad' it was.
By the time Kayleigh finished her first full semester at her new school, her mom was pregnant, and by the time the next Fall came around, she had a brand new baby brother.
Kayleigh was so thrilled, she preferred spending her time at home to hanging out with friends, and wanted to hold him every chance she got.
Vanessa tried not to cry as they all sat around the tree in December on Christmas morning as a family. But it was too much to ask as she recalled the pain of losing Adam, the financial struggles that followed, and the feeling she might never be happy again or even be able to provide for her child. And then one day a gorgeous, younger man walked into her life; a man she fell in love with and married named Tanner Patten.
Money from Tanner's inheritance allowed her to never worry about finances again and to put Kayleigh through college, but it was him and his love, and his love of their children that allowed Vanessa Patten to once again really live.

Reallyoldhokie7 months agoFor the past several months, I have been working my way through the list of Komrad’s stories. And now that I am nearing the end of alphabetical list of stories, I’m kind of sad. I have enjoyed everyone of them. So now I’m going to go back through the list and catch any that I’ve missed because they’re recent. And as an older guy his tales of meeting and falling in love constantly move me to tears.
oldpantythiefabout 1 year agoIt's so cool when I find another of Komrads stories that I haven't read. They just seem to make me smile all the way through them. Some I've actually teared up while reading, but most end with the happy ending I've come to love. Thanks again.
