about as pleased as she felt.

      “Careful, little man, I don’t want you to slip and fall.”

      She was unhappily surprised, too, to put it mildly, but she pasted on a smile for Lucas’s sake.

      “Lucas, hey! How’s my assistant koi keeper today?”

      He replied, “I’m good. This is my uncle Tate. We were wondering if you could babysit me?” He gestured at Tate and then dipped his chin toward the oranges. “What are you doing with those?”

      “Hello, Uncle Tate.” Hannah quirked a brow at him. “Babysit?”

      “I didn’t realize who...that you were... Lucas said...”

      She hoped her stare served to further stir his obvious discomfort. She adopted a bright, more genuine smile for Lucas. “I’m feeding the koi a nice healthy snack. These guys love oranges and other fruit, too.”

      He grinned, clearly not sure whether to believe her. “No way.”

      “Yes way, do you want to do me a favor and feed them some?”

      “Sure,” he answered. He picked up an orange. She quartered another, and handed it over. He tossed a portion into the pond and let out a giggle of delight as several fish glided through the water and set about nibbling on it. He slowly skirted around the pond, keeping an eye on the fish as he went. He slipped the whole orange he was carrying into a pocket.
