Theo woke Ava by running into her bedroom and jumping on the bed. His little voice was loud and filled with joy. She’d never really been a cheerful morning-person, but when faced with Theo’s grin she couldn’t help but smile back at him.

“What are you so excited about?” she asked him. He was dressed and had on a pair of sandals that Ari had given him when they’d arrived. The shoes were traditional Greek ones that even Ari wore.

“Baba. He’s going to take us out on his boat today.”

“He is?” she asked. She hoped that Christos knew what he was doing. Promising to make time for Theo was one thing; actually promising to take him out on the boat was something else. She didn’t want to see Theo disappointed if Christos had to stay late at the office.

“Yes. As soon as you get up. I’ve been awake for a long time now.”

“I’m sorry, sweetheart. Give me a minute to wash my face and I’ll be downstairs for my coffee and we can talk about this.”

“You don’t have to do that. Baba is bringing you your coffee.”

“He is?” She didn’t want to see Christos until she had a chance to comb her hair and brush her teeth. She was about to toss back the covers and make a run for the bathroom.

“I told him…” Theo trailed off. She could guess what her chatty little son had said. Something about Mommy being cranky until she had her first cup of coffee.

She ruffled his hair and drew him close for a hug. “Did you tell him I need coffee first thing?”

Theo nodded against her neck, hugging her back.

“Yes, he did.”

She glanced up at Christos, who stood in the doorway holding a mug of coffee in each hand. He wore a pair of casual white trousers and a black T-shirt. He looked as if he’d had a good night’s sleep, something she envied him.

He came into her room and handed her one of the mugs. She tried to pat down her hair, which was probably flat on one side and sticking straight out on the other. She took a sip of the coffee and tried to play it cool.

“What’s this about a boat?”

Christos leaned against the dresser in the corner and sipped his coffee. “After our conversation last night, I decided to take the day off and invite you both to join me on my yacht.”

“I thought we were going on a boat,” Theo said.

“A yacht is a name for a big boat.”

“Oh. How big?”

“Big enough,” Christos said. “Would you like to join us, Ava?”

“Yes. I’d like that.”

“Good. We’ll get out of your hair and wait for you downstairs.”

Theo gave her a sloppy kiss and a hug and ran out the door. Christos paused in the doorway.

“Are you sure about this? Taking a day off work?”

“You said something last night that made sense.”

“Only one thing?” she asked. Actually she was surprised anything she’d said made sense. She’d been flying blind, driven by emotion, and that never boded well for making sense.
