' Lyn said half asking and half in confirmation.I thought for a second or two. 'Yes, how did you guess?'She smiled softly. 'Easy, you want to see Sara.... I knew there'd be a time I became jealous of my daughter but I thought I'd be safe until she was at least a teenager.''I do want to see your adorable little girl but I also desire to see her beautiful mother.'We agreed a time and as I left, I was even given a kiss on the cheek.Standing at the gate I turned towards home. I'd explain on Monday. And the arms around the waist.The odd pat on her backside that rested a little too long. But she was enjoying herself, the centre of attention. All harmless fun.The music started. Encouraged to dance, she was led up to a small coffee table.

Eventually James just asked, "So, mom, what did you need?" Huh?" she responded, "Oh! Right. I'd nearly forgotten. Your sister is gonna be flying into town next week for work. I told her I would.
