Having no idea where Bergen actually was, I googled a map of Norway and saw that it was up on the north-west coast, clearly a plane journey away. I hadn’t realised before just how vast the country actually was. There was another huge chunk of it continuing past Bergen, leading up towards the Arctic. I decided to book a flight for the following morning and emailed Mr Dahl back to say I’d be in Bergen by midday tomorrow.

It was just past six o’clock and still light outside. I imagined the long winters here when the sun disappeared after lunchtime and the snow fell heavily, blanketing everything it touched. And I mused on how my sisters had often commented that I seemed impervious to the cold, constantly opening windows to let in fresh air. I’d always thought I was simply used to it due to my sailing. But as I remembered Maia’s ability to take any level of heat and turn a sultry brown within the space of a few minutes, compared to my tendency to turn beetroot, perhaps winter was part of my heritage, as sunny climes were part of Maia’s?

My thoughts turned unbidden to Theo, as they always did when the night drew in. I knew he would have loved to accompany me on this journey, probably analysing my reactions to the situation every step of the way. As I climbed into the bed, which tonight felt far too big just for me, I wondered whether there would be anyone in my future who could possibly take his place. And I doubted there ever would be. Before I became maudlin, I set my alarm for seven o’clock the next morning, closed my eyes and tried to sleep.
