***

Early in the following Spring, after the soothing comfort of the womb, there would be the harsh lights and loud noises that herald any arrival into a modern maternity unit. Protesting with loud cries, the baby would be suddenly quietened by the mother’s smile.

A vague memory would stir, an echo of a voice whispering -

“... no matter who is wearing it ...”

It was an early Easter that year, and the usual get-together of the two families was due to take place at the Hall. The Easter egg hunt, either in the gardens, or inside the large house if the weather was poor, was now an annual family tradition eagerly anticipated by the two older children. Lucy, as ever, was boasting to the latest au pair that she knew where absolutely all of the eggs were hidden and no-one else would get even one – she would feed them all to Mindy the puppy who, now five months old, large and boisterous, was proving to be a real handful.

Vicky overheard, shuddered at the thought of the awful effects too much chocolate might have on both child and dog, but decided not to intervene. It was her way of coping with both her daughter and her husband these days, and if it meant that both were given full rein with their selfishness, at least it meant that she had some sort of peace. Vicky had discovered something of the art of her late mother-in-law – of ignoring the things that would cause her too much trouble to solve. Sonia, of course, had gone on to refine this art by only getting involved with things that would bring her rewards – especially the personal satisfaction of being in control of other people’s lives. That particular refinement lingered in the air over Victoria, with a faint question mark.

Time would tell.
