Arrivals & Drinks - Roger
"There was no doubt in my mind," Marietta replied proudly. It was nice to know Roger was that much closer to being back to his old self, enjoying his favourite sport and excelling at it, no less. She was in the process of kissing him again when she heard a knock at the front door, and reluctantly she pulled away. "Ah, your cast of admirers have begun to arrive," she said with a small smile. "Stay here. I'll go get them. And..." She leaned to whisper in his ear before she left the kitchen. "...just so you know, I have something of a belated Valentine's Day...gift...for you after dessert. A combination of congratulations and something I hope will even the score a little," she added, touching the necklace where Roger's fingers had been seconds before.
