Anthea smiled, “It stung a bit at first, but it’s all good now.”

Carole had prepared a feast for tonight, including a bubbling fondue pot, and an assortment of chicken, duck, and fish dishes.

Nanson raised his glass and stood up, “Sis, Annie, this is Annie’s first Christmas back with us, and our first celebrating a fresh start. Here’s to brighter days ahead! Cheers!”
