chapter twod
dinner was going well .)( the timeable was stuck to the fridge ." 8:15 , guest arrive . 9:00 , serve ." a schedule was crucial to my peace of mind .)
we were ten in all , a number than ensured sparate conversations could be conducted and thus mask any awkward little silences . . the final guest list was mostly vistemax but , in view of my keep going philosophy , not wasted .
thehurleys arrived at precisely eleven minutes past eight . when i opened the front door . nmartin pushed paige , seven months pregnant and large, into the hall ." thought you could do with some early back up ." he murmured as nathan unwrapped paige from her coat ." and paige wanted to check out waht you were wearing ."
i flushed ." will i do ?"
martin studied my green wraparound dress approvingly " sure . you look great ." he touched my arm in a g=uesture of support and felt as if i had been given a million dollars
but a little later , with thew shakers and barry and lucy helm still arrive , paiger lumbered over and hissed ," the dress is too tight ."
