Annabel
I take my time dressing for today. After going through my wardrobe so many times, I had ended up with jean bum shots and a large off-shoulder top and I put them on now, nervous at the idea of Stefan meeting my mother. The idea might have be terrifying at the beginning because an irrational part of.my mind had been convinced he would run the minute he knew but he did not, and I realise I do want him to meet her. And because I am totally free today, we have made plans to do just that today.
I apply the lightest of make-ups and of course, my nude lip gloss before nodding in approval. Now for the shoes...
Stefan comes into the room from the shower, his hair curly from the steam. He heads straight for me and I dodge beneath his reach, holding out a hand to stop him.
