Tommy has arrived with his wife and uncle in tow. This dinner has turned into a special occasion, everyone in the house is present, so we are all eating a la buffet in the reception room. Everyone except for George and Jeffery.
"Where are George and Jeffrey", I ask Carl.
"they should be here shortly."
"Did they go out somewhere?"
"They will be here in a few minutes. Just after dinner."
"Are we having them for dessert?" says michael, snickering.
"Never mind. You'll soon see."
"And besides, dessert is on us", says Tommy.
"You really didn't have to, you guys" says Carl, smiling broadly.
"what did you bring us?" says Carol, cheerily.
Then Melissa, Sarah, Jennifer and Maureen come out, each carrying a huge entire cheese cake, and followed by Glen and Matthew, each carrying crystal cruets in both hands.
"Choice of sauces and syrups.", announces Carrie, "creme Brulee, chocolate, cherry and orange.
"Who made all this?" says Carol."
"My handsome hubby", says Carrie, hugging Tommy from behind.
"Oh, you shouldn't have", she squeals like a delighted upper class school girl.
"Maybe not", says Tommy, chuckling, but we did!"
