It took Jon and Melanie three days to book their flight, find the nearest and least ostentatious hotel near where they were going, arrange for a catsitter, and pay up their bills two months out, just in case—the latter having been a recommendation from their late uncle William for any time they were leaving on a trip with no fixed end date that they’d never actually had to worry about. Jon had also spent several hours trying to reassure and comfort Rhiow, who had evidently worked out that they were going away and not bringing her along. Continue
