“Yes”; replied Grandpa Leo, “I’ll be getting some sleep on the flight from Tokyo, so I’ll grab a shuttle from the airport to your place and will see you and your mom and dad when I arrive.  I should be there around midnight, or so.”

Grandpa Leo was smiling as he talked.  He was looking for to seeing his favorite granddaughter, especially since it had been a month, or more, since he had last seen her.

“We can visit for a while this evening and then maybe we can have lunch together tomorrow, if you have time.” finished Grandpa Leo.

“That would be great.” replied Cassidy.  I’m looking forward to seeing you when you get here tonight and I have tomorrow off from school, so I would really enjoy having lunch with you. 

Grandpa Leo hung up the phone and thought about his granddaughter while he finished packing.  She was growing up fast.  Because of all the travelling he did for his work, he didn’t get a chance to see her as often as he would like.  He was also looking forward to having lunch with her, tomorrow.  It would give them both a chance to catch up on what had been going on for the last month that he’d been away.  He knew Cassidy always enjoyed hearing about the places he travelled to and Grandpa Leo was interested to hear about what was going on in Cassidy’s life while he’d been away.

He finished packing and then called down to the hotel desk to arrange a limousine to the airport for tomorrow.   He had a meeting by teleconference, early in the morning, and then would be leaving for the airport shortly after the meeting.  He was not looking forward to the long flight, but was looking forward to being home and seeing Cassidy and her parents.
