A Mother's Gift (Love Inspired)
“Silence had descended on Dixie’s car the moment they’d left the parking lot, bringing with it emotions that she had not expected. She supposed it was the letdown after the crisis. Now that the worst was past, she had time to acknowledge the fears that had driven her for all those hours.
Taking her eyes off the road just long enough to glance at Joel, Dixie smiled through her tears. He lounged in the passenger seat as if he did not have a worry in the world. She would not have been nearly so san...guine. To sit in the dark while someone else literally held your life in her hands, which is what happened every time you got into a car that you weren’t driving yourself, seemed like a very frightening experience to her. But then he turned out to be more aware than she’d imagined. She had been so careful to keep silent, not to sob or even sniff.
“How did you know?”
“The way you’re breathing.”
“You can actually hear my breath?”
“Every moment I’m with you.”
She shook her head and wiped at the tear streaks on her face.MoreLess
