  Helena couldn’t believe the change in her husband. He was brighter and cheerier than he’d been in the longest time. During the past week he had hardly kept his hands off her, which as much as she enjoyed his renewed affection towards her, she was becoming a little irritated by him. He was like a teenager all over again. But what seemed to be making him the happiest were the twins. He was in awe of their three-year-old sons, and spent hours sprawled across the floor playing with them. Normally, he was too tired to involve himself with them. Work had been taking its toll recently, and the first thing he would do when he’d returned home, was to collapse on the settee and crack open a beer.

  And work was another thing. He’d asked Helena to call the office just over a week ago to say he was unwell and wouldn’t be in. His job was mind numbing and tiring, but after a week at home he was actually looking forward to going back. She had no idea why he’d pretended to be sick, but enjoyed his company at home. He acted as if all around was new to him.

  Helena didn’t know what had brought about the change in her husband. He was acting like they’d only just got married. He was attentive, positive and seemed very much in love with her.

  Long may this last thought Helena.
