Chapter 12
Ollie
Several weeks later
Mid-May
Spring had finally come. There was still snow on the ground surrounding the cabin, but it was beginning to melt. Water poured out of the gutters, splashing into mud puddles below. Oliver opened the front door, squinting against the bright sunlight that reflected against the remaining snow. He drew in a long breath, letting the crisp and clean air fill his lungs.
The long winter appeared to be over, which had him feeling a bit blue, despite the nice weather. It had been almost twelve weeks since his arrival and soon, he'd be going back home. In fact, he guessed that he only had a few more sessions with Elsie before Coach sent for him. Then it would be time to pack up his bags and head back to California to resume his normal life.
