When he came through to the dining room with the plates, I was facing the window, looking out at the grounds.
“Why are you smiling?” he asked. “I’ve never seen you so happy.”
“I’m smiling because I’m happy. I’m happy because I’ve never started the day like this before.”
“Being fed?”
“In more ways than one,” I replied, rewarded by him letting out a laugh.
“I’m trying to be Mr Serious here.”
“And I keep ruining it?”
“You couldn’t ruin anything.”
“You haven’t heard me singing,” I said as I picked up my fork. I looked across at him, watching him sipping at his coffee. “You look happy too.”
“I am,” he replied. “Very happy.”
Of course, neither of us knew it but that happiness was about to come to a very abrupt end, all because of a single phone call.
