Its not intended, but I quite like how my Grands are symmetrical.

She finds him, sitting on the steps, outside Lallybroch. Taken a seat beside him, she says, “A penny for your thoughts.” Turning, he grins.

 

“Just thinking about my parents.” She takes his hand, and rests her head on his shoulder. His parents were killed in WW2. He rarely talks about them.

 

“What brought them to your mind?”

 

“This place in a round about way. I was thinking about Claire and Jamie, trying to picture them here.” He shakes his head, “I can feel them here. See them in Jem’s stubbornness, in Mandy’s sweetness.”

 

“Me too. There are days I miss them so much, I feel like my heart is breaking.” Bree confesses.

 

“Aye. Mine as well. It is different with my mum and dad. They have been gone so long. But still, I was just thinking about whether they would love Jemmy and Mandy.”

 

“Of course they would!” She calls out.

 

“They are so different  then the children of their generation and even mine.” He chuckles, “My mum would be shocked by Jemmy’s straight forward way of talking. My dad would frown at Mandy’s  way of getting into scrapes with her brother.”

 

His wife nods. “They are unique. Because of their upbringing. Without time travel, they would be children of the sixties or early seventies. That would make them different, as would Jemmy not growing up for the first part of his life, on Fraser’s Ridge, in the past. Still,” she threads her arm through his, “They would adore them because they are their grandchildren.”

 

“I wish they could know them.”

 

She turns his face to hers. “Teach our kids about them. They should know both sets of grands, after all.”

 

He smiles and kisses her. “A wonderful idea Mrs. Mackenzie.”

Reblog to save a student’s life

Let me introduce myself, my name is Chris, I am twenty years old, I live in Costa Rica, I am in my fourth semester of English in College. I feel ashamed right now. I am writing this because I need a little help. As I told you before, I am studying English at the University of Costa Rica. This is my second year and my fourth semester, and I have good grades. I was born and raised in a small town called “La Suiza”, in English it is like Switzerland, and it is three hours away from my college. Usually, I like to know the face of the person I am talking to, if that is your case too, my Instagram account is @omgrightmeaw, so you can see the face behind these words.

Two years ago, before starting college, I had to ask for a loan because my family did not and still do not have the resources to pay for my education. Thankfully It was given to me. Nowadays, I have been paying for it every month since May. Last year, I had to move to San José, the capital of Costa Rica in order to attend college. I moved by myself and left my family behind, but of course, I visit them every weekend. So, paying rent, paying groceries, paying services, and so on, are things that make me spend all my money; consequently, it is very difficult for me to afford the monthly fee of my loan. In total the loan was of ¢2,964,398.00, and I have to pay 159 fees of ¢27,600.00 every month. In other words, it was $5.117,14, and 159 fees of $47,64 monthly.

I am not and I will never ask you for cash, so of course, I can provide all the information needed, such as the institution, my personal information, and so on. 

Just in case my PayPal account is [email protected].

If you read me, thank you so so much. Best Regards,

Chris. xoxo
