"I think I should be able to manage at least one party while in London. Though I doubt it will be as exciting an affair as the ones you and Mother put together, but it should be an excellent learning experience," Charles said with a nod, smiling still. He sipped at his tea again, swallowing back the dread of throwing a party.
It wouldn't be so bad, he thought. He could take some time to plan it, perhaps a few weeks, with Abigail's help if she were willing. Choosing who to invite would not be difficult either. And above all else Charles was organised, so he felt he really could do this. He knew there was more to a party than an appropriate guest list and he decided he would not be daunted by that fact. Nor would he worry about having to chat with every guest to ensure that they were having a lovely time. He could throw a small party for his first.
