But this was most definitely the best way to be awakened in the middle of this night...
"Hi, sorry to wake you up but I'm here in New York with your daughter and your future daughter..."
See, there was this very special girl arriving in New York from a trip to Europe. The plan that wasn't really a plan was for Mariana to pick her up, for the two of them to spend the night in Ana's apartment and then to leave early in the morning for the train to Trenton where the Good Doctor would pick them up. The boy, we all thought, would be traveling from Kentucky the next day. But that was all a decoy.
Really, the boy was already in NYC, waiting in a cold but beautiful park with the girl's good friend.
Thankfully, for all of them, the girl was pretty jet-lagged and wasn't suspicious of anything when they ended up in the cold and beautiful park.
All of a sudden the boy swooped in and did what he had come to do.
And we couldn't be happier!
