Sarah stared into the distance - it was as if all her nightmares had all come at once.

‘Hey!’

She turned as her sister appeared. ‘Hey! Congratulations!’

‘Thanks! Although the timing could have been better!’

‘It’s the financial climate, Harry told me.’

‘Yeah I know.’

‘Don’t think I’m going to let it rest - in fact, Harry and I have already been talking and-’

‘Sis- I don’t need charity - I’ll be fine - honestly! Besides, it’s not like I’ll have to spend any time with him!’

‘Err...yeah about that - I wasgoing to ask you to be my Maid of Honour...’

‘Yeah...Great! There’s a slight snag though...’

‘Oh, whatever it is - I’m sure we’ll get through it!’
