Hopefully she puts it down to evading her questions."Or Alistair."I glanced up, surprised she was so forward, but looked. She took the roses from me as tears started to run down her cheeks, she put arms around me as Sarah took the roses, and gave me a big hug and kiss"I completely forgot about this, and I did not get you anything," She sobbed into my shoulder."That is ok, you will give me my gift in bed tonight," I informed her as I softly gave her a kiss.Sarah came back in with the roses in a vase, and she said, "the chef says that dinner is ready."I told the girls to wait a second, as I got them both corsages'.
