From Heroes and Villains: A Pastor Stephen Grant Short Story by Ray Keating…
Stephen opened the door, and welcomed the Nodells into the house. Introductions were made, and Stephen and Jennifer invited the couple to take a quick tour of the house.
Diane commented, “You have a lovely home.”
“Thank you,” responded Jennifer.
After a brief pause, Guy asked, “Okay, are you two ready?”
Stephen said, “I am, but Jennifer is in the dark.”
Guy said, “That’s awesome that you were able to keep this secret.”
“Thanks.”
Jennifer looked at her husband, raised an eyebrow, and said, “Stephen.”
“Right, it’s time. Come on.”
The four stopped at the closed front door. Guy, Diane and Stephen were beaming. And then Stephen opened the door.
Jennifer stepped outside and saw the car that the Nodells had delivered. It was a red 1957 Thunderbird with its top down. Jennifer stood still and put a hand over her mouth.
Guy asked, “This is the one, right? Stephen said that growing up you were a big fan of the TV show Vega$ with Robert Urich.”
Jennifer still didn’t move or reply.
