Tombstone Estate

[Doc Holliday]

The sun was rising on another beautiful Canarian morning. John Holliday woke early on this day. He had heard Emiko crying so he woke to take care of her so that Midori could sleep. With her wrapped in her blanket and nestled in the crook of his left arm, he sat on his deck drinking morning coffee with his right. As he watched, he heard a soft "coo." As if to share a moment with Dad, Emiko was wide awake, staring at him.
"Dahlin" he said softly, "decided to join me I see." Yes, life was good as the dual suns rose and his little girl made him smile.

He then heard the sliding door open, "Konnichiwa, John Henry," spoke Midori as she came out in her night gown. Noticing Emiko awake in his arm, she just smiled and took a seat, "she happy with you." He just nodded with a smile. She was going to take her for a feeding but as she was quiet, Midori sat and enjoyed the suns rising. As she did, the thought of the note left on the door crossed her mind.

"Did that person ever show up?" she asked.
"Nope," replied John, "not a word."
"Maybe later then," she thought out loud.
"Well, Dahlin, I have some business in Munich after I check in on Nina and Lynn so I'll be off a bit later. If she shows, well, she will have to wait I guess," he stated.
"Hai," she replied in understanding.
"John, if you do not mind, I would like my parents to come to meet their magomusume," she asked.
"Magom..What?" he asked totally confused.
She laughed, "Magomusume is Kusarian for grand daughter," she explained, still snickering. He could only give her a semi-dirty look and an "Oh."
He then gave a look of sincerety, "Of course I don't mind. I can send my shuttle for them."
"Actually, I ask one of our pilots to take my ship since it not get much use these days," she said.
"We could do that too, Dahlin!" he answered.
She then knelt beside him and put her arms around him, "I love you John Henry." She then kissed him and looked into her daughter's eyes. She said nothing. She only smiled.

She then sat in her chair on the deck and prepared herself to feed Emiko. John stood up and gently placed the infant at her mother's breast.
"While you feed her, I will pour you some coffee," he said and then went to get it.

While he was there, he received the com message from Captain Tiberius. "I guess everyone knows," he stated. Satisfied and proud, he returned to the deck, placed a mug of coffee on the table next to his wife who was busy feeding and took his own seat to continue his enjoyment of the morning.
