made him smile. ‘Don’t be late.’

      Emily, Evie and Lily finally made it to coffee.

      Emily invited them all to the baby shower and then stopped and reached across and squeezed Evie’s hand. ‘So how is Finn?’

      ‘I can tell you girls because I know you don’t gossip.’ Evie lifted her head and they could see she was okay. Emily was glad. ‘Cranky as a cut snake but I actually think I’m finally getting through.’

      Lily grinned. ‘If anyone can—you can!’

      Evie smiled. ‘Early days yet, but I’m quietly confident. How are you and Luke going, Lily?’

      Lily’s face lit up and there really wasn’t a need for her words. ‘I’m in seventh heaven.’

      They both looked at Emily. ‘And what about you and Marco?’

      ‘It’s complicated.’

      ‘It always is.’

      Emily sighed. ‘I’m just going with the flow but I’m scared of getting too close. It’s not long till he leaves.’

      Evie nodded. ‘At least he’s here for your birthday on Friday.’

      Emily sighed again. ‘Annie’s been onto you. And I don’t even know if he’ll come.’

      Lily grinned. ‘We discussed it while she was in hospital and of course he’ll come.’

      ‘I hope nobody spends money on me!’

      Lily shook her head. ‘I know you hate that. Just friends for tea. I told Annie I didn’t think it was a good idea to surprise someone who’s just come off nights. So she knows I was going to tell you.’

      ‘Finn’s coming.’ The other two girls looked at Evie.

      ‘No wonder you’re quietly confident,’ Lily said.

      The next two days flew by. Emily didn’t see Marco as the theatres were particularly busy, and she knew she would see him on Friday for Annie’s appointment.
