Emily wandered through the bustling streets of New York City, eventually finding herself at the entrance of Trinity School. She checked her watch; she was half an hour early, but decided to wait.
Glancing at the empty spot where Alex used to park his car, Emily got lost in memories, leaning against a tree. She thought of the way the twins had been when they were spending time with Alex lately. The first time Alex picked them up from school, she remembered Andy's wide-eyed surprise as the car window rolled down, revealing Alex's familiar face. His eyes lit up with excitement.
Then there was the morning when Alex picked them up early, despite her attempts to avoid him. He joined them to the bagel store. She could still see Emma perched on Alex's shoulders, giggling as he playfully balanced her.
