And they came back and did
Farmer's Daughter the same way. So beautiful. A lovely way to end things, only I blame Ms. Perfect for not
telling me it was the end, so I could have acted accordingly.
It reminds me of a passage in
Wicked when all the college friends are having a post-funeral gathering: good food, drink and company. Abundant laughter. And the narrator says if they had known that it would be the last time they'd all be together, maybe they would have lingered a little longer over dinner. It gave me a chill to read that and it put me in mourning, even though nothing bad had happened in the book yet and the characters didn't suspect how their futures would divide them.
Of course, the RRHOF was the real ending for FM. And much later in
Wicked, when the little girl, Nor, asks if the witch ever returned, the mother says, "Not yet." That's what I will say of FM: not yet.
