They climbed up that tree and expected to see another great view. That was out of the blue that the view was breathtaking up there. They didn’t say much to each other. Somehow the silence seemed to connect them in a way that words never could. It didn’t take too long for Casey to realize that the first two girls who made him comfortable were his mother and Nastacy.
