A
long wolf whistle penetrates the air as she emerges. Turning
around she found Peter standing on the threshold of her lounge
with an arm full of red roses. She said rather embarrassingly
"So you found your way?" "Anywhere that leads
to you I could find" he said as he thrust the flowers at
her. The warm sultry air wrapped itself around Kate as she sat
with Peter beside the garden pool. The outdoor lights twinkle
with their reflection on the water. The dark blue sky with the
Southern Cross shining like diamonds and the sparkle of the
champagne bubbles danced in the glass that Peter had just
poured. He raised his glass saying 'To you... the most
beautiful woman in the world'. Kate could have burst into
tears, for it was the kindest most sincere statement she had
heard in years.
Six months into this tender love affair, Kate finds herself
pregnant, but before it's confirmed Peter suddenly disappears.
His daughter was his living image, with all the kindness and
caring that had been his trademark. Years later their daughter
finally tracks her father down, and Kate meets a very elderly
Pete, the outcome of which is most surprising!
