Raphael then left the room and went to play with his brothers and sister, while they all had a grown-up chat. One of the

things they talked about was what would happen in the days following, to give each other a break.

"How about we take a few of yours now and bring them back later tonight, then you look after Sally after she finishes school tomorrow while we go to marriage guidance?"

"Great idea Helen, we can do just that. If you want to go out to a hotel after, seen as your husband is back in work next week, we don't mind Sally staying over here."

"That's really kind of you Josephine, thank you. Seen as we have two spare beds, let us know if you ever need us to do the same. If not, you might as well have our spare beds anyway."

Everything was now looking good between the two families. There was no more anger or misunderstanding, not that Josephine would ever be angry. Most people thought that it was impossible for Josephine to ever get angry, as she was always happy and jolly, kind and generous. There was not anyone who this woman would not sacrifice her right arm for it did seem.

"Want to go on a tour then?"

"Erm" Hannah looked at her husband, as if to say, 'should we?' and he reading her like a book responded.

"Why not. If you’re sure, we'll come on a tour. Most kind of you to offer.

Maybe we can give you a tour of our house."

Hannah looked at him with shocked eyes, so he added "after we've decorated of course."

They got up and walked into the back room where there was a table, they all sat at to eat their meals. It was a long table,

although

not

necessarily

expensive. Eleven chairs were around it and there was another chair which was against the wall.

"Joseph my husband sits on that seat as head of the table, I sit..." she was interrupted by Kwiatoslaw who made a joke.

"If that was our table no doubt Helen would

be

sitting

there

hahaha."

Josephine then carried on speaking.

"I sit to the right of him, opposite sits

my oldest, and then in order of each the next youngest sits opposite, the next one to the right of me, the next one opposite, the next one to the right of the right of me etc. I think you get the picture?"

Hannah answered her with a smile.

"Yes, we understand, that's a nice table plan. I'm afraid in my house there is no official plan sadly. In fact, we are way to disorganised."

"I'm sure that's not true. As long as your organised in your hearts, surely that's all that matters. Ok, you’ve seen in here, let’s go to the kitchen."

There was an old-fashioned fire stove which coal was put inside. This heated up the hobs and the oven and it was connected to a chimney. There were

copper pans hung up on the wall near the cooker and there was several cupboards and draws like in any kitchen.

"You've got style Mrs McKenna."

"Well thankyou Kwia.
