The Gibson's car pulled into the circular driveway outside the McMillan home. Laura turned off the ignition and turned. "We're here."
They got out, Karyn looking around. She'd known Sarah's family had money..
Jon led the way as they headed to the door and rang the bell.
A few moments later, Lucy and Sarah came to the door. "Laura," Lucy said. "good to see you," she said.
"I'm glad you could all come," Lucy said.
Sarah looked Jon over. "I see you've had a bit more drastic change," she commented. "You look good, considering the circumstances. Come in..."
Jon paused. He'd sort of been worried Sarah was going to make this difficult. "You look good as well."
"I look great," Sarah said, jokingly. "But, don't sell yourself short." She turned her attention to Karyn. "Hello, Karyn..."
"Hi!" Karyn said, looking up at her.
"How are you doing?"
"Okay," Karyn said, shifting from foot to foot. "Everyone got so tall..."
Sarah leaned down. "Well," she lowered her voice. "I bet there are some good things about what happened also. You just have to find them, right?" She smiled in a genuinely friendly way.
That made Karyn feel a bit better. Maybe, she thought, Mrs. Sarah wasn't so bad.
"We're still getting ready for lunch, but how about I show you around?" Sarah offered Jon.
Laura looked at Lucy. "Is there somewhere we can talk?"
"Sure..." Lucy said.
