Rory was the passenger in the car this time. Nina was driving them to Simon and Tania's house. They were going to tea and would experience what it was like to have two young children. There was excitement and a little apprehension.
"What are the kids called again?"
Nina shook her head. Why did men have so much trouble retaining names?
"Christopher is the older one, he's 4, and Lucy is 2."
"Right."
"Their parents are called Simon and Tania."
"Haha, very funny."
On arrival, Nina presented Lucy with a small rag doll and Christopher got a dinosaur sticker book. Delighted with their booty, the children rushed off to play.
"Smart move, that. Getting the kids on our side." Rory grinned.
