We got up. By this time, I was really tired, but we followed everyone out.
Tan waved up Greg's parents, and Roger's.
Liam Gelb saw Roger and Judy, and he grabbed Nell's arm. "Nell! Roger! Judy! My children come!"
Toras, his healer, was Yeff. "O, I am happy! Let me carry you! Netalta, Sian, will you carry the others?"
Nell laughed. "I can walk, to see our children!"
"If you conserve your energy, you will last longer before you must rest."
She sighed. "Oh, all right!"
Sian, the lady, carried little Lianna. "Oh, I so wished for sisters and brothers! Are they little, like me?"
We ported into Bremen. It was a little German village, but the wood of the houses looked plastic. It had beautiful carvings with colorful paints that matched the flowers that grew everywhere in lavender sand.
Roger shook all over. "Father. I am sorry we stayed away. S-slavers—"
"Slavers! Come to me, both of you! Oh, I prayed for this day that you came back to me! My children!"
Judy hugged him, too. "Y-you're not angry?"
He kissed her forehead. "Nein, I never was angry with you! Roger, you always obeyed me. I knew you would come back when you could!"
Lianna hugged them, too. "I wished for little children, but you are very nice! I am Lianna."
Roger got down on the sand and put her in his lap. "Oh, you are just as pretty as I remember you. I promised to take you on our ship, when I had a free day, but we worked longer and I could not. Now I work writing progs, so I can stay with you, and so can Judy!" He had deep blue eyes. Hers were light.
Tan laughed. "I am so happy that you have your family. Oh, here comes Fiomin! And, my brother, Vonn! He has his dearest friend, Derees and his wife, Patasia with him!"
They came running, but Derees had all three boys in his arms. They giggled.
As they got closer, Judy paled. "Rees? Oh, Rees! Roger, my brother, Rees!"
Derees gasped. "Judy! Tasia, here is my sister! I thought she died, testing ships with her husband! Roger, you are here, too!" His brown eyes filled.
Everyone hugged everyone and it was so happy!
Then Greg's parents came and hugged everyone! Deb and her big family were delighted, and there were lots of kids. Vonn and Sara had Steven, Brett and Mandy. Derees and Tasia had Puret, Donn and Wisper, all boys. It just made me miss our son all the more. Is he on that planet with Dromie's people?
Fiomin Resar had blue eyes and blond hair. His wife, Igora Panab also had bright blue eyes and blond hair.
Greg looked down. "Father, I am sorry."
Fiomin petted his hair and hugged him. "It is like seeing a ghost! Oh, come, Briahh and Sika! I love you all. Nein apologies. You did nothing wrong. They took you. I wanted you, but they took me and my Ig. Now we are together, and who are these fine ladies?"
"This is Deb, my wife! Her parents, Esther and Nathan Bruce, and Esther's parents, Kameron and Vicki Robinson. Kameron is a doctor. Vicki is a chef and learns healing. Nathan and Esther are programmers. I teach chemistry and so does Briahh and Deb is a healer. Constance is a scientist and here is their baby, Lizzie!"
