“What now?” Oliver rolls his eyes, fumbling for his phone on the centre
console of the car. He’s driving, so I pick it up.
“Just pass it to me.” His tone is harsher than expected and I’m taken
aback. “Sorry.”
Oliver sighs. “You know I hate being late.” Bringing the phone to his
ear, he barks, “Yes!”
I feel bad for whoever is calling him. I wince when Oliver swerves
around a red Toyota. We’re late for lunch with some important clients of my
father’s. I wish he wouldn’t speed, though. Not when traffic in the middle
of Sydney can come to a grinding halt without warning at any time of day.
“What do you mean they haven’t got the ones we chose? We ordered
them months ago.”
I can’t hear the response, but I can see from Oliver’s reaction he’s not
happy.
I should have gotten ready sooner, only I was procrastinating because I
hate these things. I hate making small talk with strangers.
Oliver sighs again. “This whole renovation feels like such a headache.
I’m tempted to cancel.” On the phone must be the builder who’s renovating
our coast house.
“Oh, we can’t cancel. What about the wedding?” The house is an early
wedding present from my parents. It used to be our family holiday house
when I was a kid, but it’s been years since anyone used it.
Oliver turns to glare at me.“Hang on,” he says to the builder. Covering
the phone receiver, he asks me, “Mia, why don’t we have the wedding in
Sydney? There are so many great places we could have it, and then we
could have a bigger guest list.”
I suppress a shudder. One of the main reasons I want the wedding in
Rosella Bay is to keep the guest list down.
“My parents would be so disappointed, though. You know they were
excited we wanted to do up the place.” It’s a lie. I don’t think they care one
way or the other.
Oliver frowns, but my appeal seems to have worked. He lifts the phone
back to his ear. “Fine. What do you propose we do about the tiles?”
He pauses.
“I can’t come all the way to Rosella Bay to go tile shopping,” he snaps.
“I don’t have time for that.”
Gently, I put my arm on his leg until he glances over at me. “I could
go.”
“What?”
“I could go down. Does he need someone to go choose the new tiles? I
can do it.”
“Really?”
I nod. I’d love the excuse to get out of Sydney.
He smiles and my chest loosens.
“When do you need the new tiles?”
A pause.
“Tomorrow!?”
I squeeze his leg. “Drop me home. I’ll drive down this afternoon. I can
be there by three. You could come down tomorrow night. We can have a
little weekend getaway.”
It could be just what we need. A weekend to reconnect. Things have
been hectic lately. Particularly for Oliver. My dad wants to make him
partner after the wedding. There have been a lot of late nights and early
mornings. When he does get home, he’s always tired.
No wonder he’s so snappy
