‘That’s a sight for sore eyes!’ Colm grinned as Nina and Robyn returned with their tray of refreshments. ‘Biscuits too! I’ll be coming here again, so I will.’

‘That’s very kind,’ Nasser said, taking a cup.

‘Oooh, lovely!’ Kelly said, taking one too. Then Ron grabbed the pack of biscuits before Colm could reach them and took a handful before slapping them back on the tray with enough force to break every remaining biscuit. Robyn opened her mouth, set to give him a piece of her mind, but was stopped by Colm’s good-natured laugh.

‘Someone’s worked up an appetite already,’ he said, taking a digestive for himself. It snapped instantly in his hands. Ron glared at him, cradling his haul like Gollum with his Precious and, despite the situation, it was hard not to laugh.

‘I’m giving up my time,’ Ron said sourly, ‘and they’re supposed to be for everyone.’

‘Yes,’ Robyn said. ‘They’re for everyone.’

Nina could have safely bet her house that Robyn was dying to make some additional sarcastic comment about how everyone had given up their time and if biscuit allocation had been based on hours given in good humour then Ron would have to hand all but a lick of chocolate back from his stash.

‘I reckon,’ Colm began, taking a sip of his tea as he surveyed the garden, ‘if we get a good day and push on we could be done here by nightfall.’ He looked at everyone with a broad smile, his gaze finally settling on Nina. ‘And you could get your campaign back on track.’

‘That’d be amazing,’ Nina said, and she almost meant it. Of course she wanted to get the memory tree project going again; it was just the bit about the garden being finished that she wasn’t so keen on. Once the garden was done there’d be no need for Colm to come back to Sparrow Street and she’d probably never see him again. Then again, the alternative outcome here might be that he ended up dating Robyn, and that might be just as unbearable as not seeing him at all. She was beginning to wish she’d never met the man.
