A Perfect Gentle Knight
““I had a letter from my sister. She’d like to come and visit for Christmas. What do you think, my dears, shall we ask her?”
Aunt Madge! Corrie’s heart leapt. Aunt Madge phoned on birthdays and holidays, and once in a while she wrote them a letter, but they hadn’t seen her for two years.
“Aunt Madge?” asked Orly as if he weren’t exactly sure who she was, but Juliet squealed, “Yes, please!” Corrie was amazed that she remembered her. Roz looked thrilled and Harry smiled in his sober way. Sebastian..., however, frowned at his plate.
“I don’t think that would be a good idea,” he mumbled.

“Oh, please say she can come, Fa!” begged Juliet. “I like Aunt Madge! She made cookies!”
Roz glared at Sebastian. “Don’t listen to Sebastian,”MoreLess
