‘Oh, yes.’ Siobhan clapped her hands together. ‘That’s perfect Harry.’
‘Gillian...Gillian,’ said Katya, rolling it around her tongue a couple of times before nodding her agreement.
‘No, no.’ Gill held up his hands. ‘It was a team effort.’
‘Yes,’ Harriet insisted. ‘Yours was the first face she ever saw. You’re connected. Whether you like it or not.’
And Harriet couldn’t think of a better memory to take away from her last day.
