This news cheered Diana up a little.
And Brian followed that up with another bombshell.
"Also, Sybil is pregnant."
"What?" Diana was even more shocked this time. How had all this passed her by?
Brian noticed Diana's astonishment and tried to reassure her, "I only heard the news recently myself."
Diana suddenly stood up. "I have to talk with Sybil."
Did Sybil see her as a friend? Why did she know nothing about all this?
Brian pulled her back. "Do you know where she is now? Where are you going to meet her?"
Diana stared at him. "I don't know, but you can tell me."
"I will tell you, but only if you finish the lunch," Brian said with a cheeky grin.
The news about Sybil distracted Diana somewhat. She felt the sadness fade just a little, and she felt able to eat. She finished most of Brian's lunch, then handed the box back to him.
