Familiar faces ….family, friends, acquaintances,  business colleagues, then a familiar voice greeted Hannah.  Hi Auntie Hannah, how are you?  Oh Michael, it's you! I am doing fine and you?  I am married now and my wife is pregnant.  Here she is….this is my wife Chloe, Auntie Hannah.  Chloe, this is my Aunt Hannah.   Nice to meet you Chloe, I can see your baby bump….do you know the gender?  Not yet Auntie Hannah, maybe next month.  I've heard a lot of stuff about you Auntie.  My pleasure of meeting you in person. Pleasure is mine Chloe…..well, it's kind of complicated.  Let bygones be bygones.  I moved on, he moved on.  It's the best that we could do to get a normal life.  Michael's face was so sad and so was Chloe.  Hannah tried to be vivacious, unaffected, friendly and happy but still hurting inside. Ava came and had a chat with Hannah.  I missed you Hannah, join us again on our Tuesday and Thursday yoga class.  We added ballroom dancing after Yoga.  It's fun, great exercise and socializing.  Then came Abner, Ava's husband shook Hannah's hand and said …good to see you, Hannah,  you're looking great!  Thanks Abner, you too and Ava are looking great.
