My Canadian Chronicles 005

The anticipation was killing me. I was pacing around outside like an agitated lion waiting. I had spoken to her an hour before and as yet we had to meet. I went back inside the hotel watching every car that pulled in. A blue van pulled in and she got out. My eyes followed her as she walked to the door. I stood as she entered. Her smile radiated the lobby. We did not need words we knew who each other was. We hugged, and then we talked and talked until my wife came back and the introductions began again. 8 June 2009 Author’s note. This depicts my first meeting with Melvina Germain
