45 Let's Party! (Winona)

Anne made a unicorn cake and it looks stunning on the table and Phillip has managed to fill all the snack bowls, make sure the place is fresh and dust free, and is standing here with a coffee in hand for me. My lounge area has been transformed to party central. My hands feel jittery as I take it from him. "This room looks fabulous. Abby will just love it. I hope she's well enough to sit on her throne and open her presents with us." I'd hired her a golden velvet throne for the day.

He nods.

I go and open the front door and the happy couple are there, looking spectacular in casual clothes. I mean, they are almost matching. I'm glad Lisa hasn't arrived yet, I can almost hear her snickering in my head. "Hey." I greet them. "You ready for the
