Tearful goodbyes were said as quickly as possible for everyone’s sake. The boys carefully loaded their sister’s gurney into the ambulance. Evan refused to leave her side so he rode in the back with the paramedic who was ordered, in no uncertain terms, not to touch the patient by a very intense looking Evan. Alik and Creed slipped into the town car and sat silently for the twenty-minute drive to the airport. Alik kept looking behind them at the ambulance, making sure they were still back there and that everything seemed okay. He couldn’t stop recalling with his perfect clarity the image of his mother, Theo, Paulie, and Cole waving softly and hugging each other as they watched them drive away. Maze obeyed orders to “stay” but was howling his worry after the doors to Meg’s ambulance closed. His mom kept whisking tears away from her cheeks, and Theo kept a protective arm over her shoulder. Paulie, in his own way, was terrified for everyone, but he only stood with his arms crossing his ample belly and nodded encouragingly his farewell.
