Xander

It's 2.55 pm and I’m parked outside her building waiting for her. At exactly 3.02 pm I see her exit the building with two other females. I recognize them from our wedding.

As it should be.Hayley helps Chef set the table and even though I haven’t had the strength or appetite for much recently, even I am tempted by the delicious smells wafting from the table.“Chef you have to eat with us today, you went through so much trouble and it wouldn’t be the same without you.” I hear Hayley tell Hannah.“No Hayley, what are you saying.

The house is wooden with screens and surrounded by a beautifully manicured garden. A little bridge walkway sits over a pond leading to the front door entrance. Akio, Mr Hashimoto’s son, is already waiting for us at the door. “Hi Akio, thanks for allowing us to come here.” “Thank you for honouring my father and coming to see him.” “How is he?” “He’s having a good day today.
