Owen was stalling, trying to make sure that Kate was fully immersed in her work before they arrived. He walked into the house, hand in hand with Rina as she had a smile plastered over her face.

For about a week now, her regular words had been “not there, there, not here, here” and she was pretty tired. “Oh Maria, what have they turned you to?” Maria heard a voice and she turned to see her sister, Benedicta.
