Fiona Gibson - As Good As It Gets?

Liza nods. ‘It really improved her confidence and she met some lovely people. Honestly, it’s been an amazing opportunity for her …’

I smile and turn to Will. ‘I think the final decision should actually rest with Rosie … don’t you, darling?’

‘Dad, please ,’ Rosie blurts out. ‘I can look after myself. I’m not an idiot …’

He frowns at me. ‘But I thought we said—’

‘We didn’t say anything,’ I cut in, ‘because we haven’t actually found out what it might entail. How about I call the agency on Monday? We can at least all go in for a chat.’

‘You mean all of us,’ Rosie asks, aghast, ‘like a family outing?’

I nod firmly. ‘Absolutely. Well, Ollie could go to a friend’s …’

Will stares. ‘You mean me ? You’re saying I’ve got to come too?’

‘Yes. You obviously have concerns so I think it’s important that you’re there, don’t you?’

‘Er, I don’t think …’

‘You’re coming, Will,’ I say, surprising myself with my bossiness.

He gives me a look as if he’s about to protest, then busies himself by fetching more wine from the fridge.

‘ Why , Mum?’ Rosie cries. ‘This’ll be so embarrassing!’

‘Because we’re your family and we love you,’ I say brightly, giving Liza a wink across the table as I refill her glass.
