The rain was coming down so hard that night it sounded like the sky had lowered itself onto my roof.

When the doorbell rang, I opened the door expecting paper bags and a quick thank-you. Instead, I found the girl I had carried in my heart for 20 years standing on my porch in a faded delivery jacket.

Same dimples. Same wide brown eyes. Same soft mouth I had once watched smiling at me under prom lights when I was 17 and trying not to believe in miracles.
