      Much too young. Christine’s gaze lingered on the waiter’s tight backside as Sarah continued. Besides, you're a married woman.

      Thanks for reminding me, Christine scowled at her best friend. I know what you’re thinking.

      She really did. Sarah was thinking that there were worse things in life than being married to Robert, a man who was always there for her. Good old sturdy Robert.

      So what if she had been married to him ten years today and he had only managed to remember their wedding anniversary once or twice? Not that buying a card and a faded bunch of flowers from the local garage the following day actually constituted remembering. Not in her eyes anyway.

      Surely that had to be better than a husband who bailed out after two years, leaving you with one year old twins and a heavily re mortgaged house that had funded his affair with another woman?

      She'd almost left Robert once. It hadn't been because she didn't love him. She did. Tremendously. That's why it hurt so much when he didn't remember. His mother had told her he was useless at dates. It's just the way he is, love, she'd said when he had forgotten their first wedding anniversary and Christine had rung her in floods of tears.

      So, if you know my point of view, why are you moping into your drink? Sarah chided, and Christine stuck her tongue out at her.

      Probably because my best friend won’t let me ogle the waiter! she joked, her gaze once more sliding across the crowded café to rest on the waiter who had served them earlier.

      Sarah was right. He was too young, even if he did look good in his butt hugging jeans and tight white tee shirt.

      There are worse crimes, Chris, Sarah pointed out and Christine shrugged.

      Robert still looked good for
