“No. The restaurant has been real busy. I’ve been working here so much I just haven’t had the time.”
“That’s right, Lynni told me business is booming,” Sydney turned to Angel. “You guys ever think of opening up another one?”
Angel squeezed Sarah’s hand. He still hated to hear Syd call her that, but was beginning to accept that it wasn’t going to be changing.
“Actually,” Angel said, “That’s kind of the plan. After school Sarah and I want to open up our own restaurant. My dad already said he’d help us, but not until we finish school,” He turned to gaze in Sarah’s eyes. “The wedding’s first, though.”
Sarah and Angel would both be attending San Diego State in the fall. She had been so close to going to New Mexico for a time that Angel had been beside himself.

Some people got up to dance including Eric and Sofia. Angel tugged Sarah’s hand. She put her drink down and he led her to the dance floor. Angel bumped Eric hard before putting his arms around Sarah.
“You’re an ass.” Eric chuckled.
Sarah rested her head against Angel’s strong shoulder and closed her eyes. His grip tightened and he kissed her head. Never in all her wildest dreams as a little girl could she have imagined being this happy. She was finally home.
