Chapter 26 - ONE YEAR OF JUSTICE
A year had passed since the fateful encounter in the hotel hallway where Thomas had tripped over Clara's vacuum hose.
Thomas and Clara returned to Manhattan to visit the Clara Montgomery Tower, currently under construction in Midtown.
They stood on the top floor of the skyscraper, looking out over the breathtaking skyline of New York City.
"A year ago, I was pushing a vacuum cleaner on marble floors in a burgundy uniform," Clara reflected softly.
"And today, you own the sky, my love," Thomas answered, holding her waist tightly against his side.
"I wouldn't change a single moment of our journey, Thomas," Clara admitted, looking into his loving dark eyes.
"Because every hardship brought us right here to where we belong," she added with a radiant smile.
Thomas kissed her gently, the golden afternoon sun casting a warm glow over them against the glass windows.
