A Chance Meeting With the Stranger on a Train: A Mail Order Bride Romance

Synopsis: On her way to her mail order husband, a woman meets a stranger and forms an instant connection, although she tries her hardest to remain uninvolved.
Prepare to disembark!
the attendant shouted, startling Caroline awake. Disembark? She blinked a couple of times, rubbing her eyes and trying to shake off the sleep that had snuck up on her with the repetitive, rhythmic clatter of the tracks. For a moment, steam obscured her view outside of the window. Then, suddenly, a gust of wind cleared it.
Chicago. The windy city.
Caroline pulled on her gloves, straightening them fastidiously before readjusting her hat. She hoped nobody had studied her too closely while she slept — and that she hadn’t done anything embarrassing like snore or murmur nonsense — but the passengers sitting around her were busying themselves with gathering their belongings.
She glanced down at her lap and was surprised to see her bible open. That’s right. She’d been reading before she drifted off. It had been in Colossians.
Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive,
she read, silently mouthing each word like a heartfelt prayer.
Above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. Be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.
Caroline liked that. Being kind was as easy as putting on the cloak she threw around her shoulders. All you had to do was be conscious of it and soon it would become like a second skin. With outward kindness, soon Christ would call a person’s soul home.
Standing up and stretching her stiff legs and back, Caroline reached up for her suitcase, stowed on a rack above the train’s benches. It had shifted during the journey, but she could get it if she just reached a little farther.
She gasped as a strong grip seized both her hand and the handle of the suitcase, dragging them both to the floor of the car.
I beg your pardon!
she exclaimed.
I do apologize,
a man said, sweeping off his hat and bowing. I hate to see a lady struggle.
His manner was as smooth as the way he combed his hair — slick and back away from his handsome face. He was well dressed and obviously did well for himself. That much was obvious from the way he dressed; in a clean, pressed suit, to the way he carried himself; chest out, shoulders back, looking
