‘Yes, I do. But I want to make sure my head really knows that. Does that make sense?’
‘Of course, after all Benput you through, it’s understandable.’
‘And I might not even be pregnant.’
‘So we’ll do the test and then you’ll know.’
‘Yes. OK.’
‘I’m here for you, Lisa. Don’t forget that.’
‘I won’t.’ As anxious as she felt about the test, Lisa knew she was lucky to have Felicity back in her life; whatever the outcome, whatever Nathan’s reaction, Lisa knew Flick would be there for her, theway she had been when they were children. But now they were adults, with grown-up problems to face.
About to hang up, a thought occurred to Lisa. ‘Flick, isn’t Sue at your house?’
‘Oh bugger, yes! Come anyway. We’ll hide upstairs.’
