Her eyes lit up with curiosity, and I knew I had her attention. "A trip? Where are we going?"

I grinned, leaning over to kiss her forehead. "That, my love, is a surprise."

She rolled her eyes but laughed, shaking her head. "You and your surprises, Richard. Should I be worried?"

"Not at all," I said, pulling her up. "Just trust me."
