Irrespective of whether Sébastien was attracted to Colette, approved of their hiding Michal, or otherwise, he came up good. Two weeks after they had met, a knock on Colette’s door woke her. It was Sunday morning and Colette’s parents had long since given up demanding she join them at church so she wasn’t sure why anyone was interrupting her sleep. She sat up blearily and raked her fingers through her hair.

‘Come in.’

Fleur entered. ‘I thought you’d be awake by now. It’s half past ten.’

‘I went out dancing with Sophie and Josette. What’s that?’

She gestured to an envelope in Fleur’s hand, ignoring the twinge of disapproval in Fleur’s lips.

Fleur passed it over. ‘It was left this morning.’

Colette didn’t recognise the writing. She opened it curiously and pulled out a folded piece of paper.

Dear Colette, I would be honoured if you and Fleur would join me for a picnic in the Jardin des Tuileries on Sunday afternoon. I will be waiting by the Grand Bassin Rond at 2.45. We could resume our conversation about vacations we might wish to take once this war is ended. I have grand plans for a journey I am keen to tell you about. My cousin Francine sends her regards. With deep affection, Sébastien.
