"What was his name then, this husband of yours?" Jill asked.
"Alfie..." Kat said with a silly smile on her face. "... Alfie Moon."
"Unusual name... you don't get many Alfie's these days and Moon... well that's a new one. Did you spend many Christmases together? It must be hard for you to be apart for the first time."
Kat swallowed hard before anwsering trying to clear the lump that was forming in her throat.
"Just the one... last year. It was the day we got married.. I'd always dreampt of Christmas wedding." Kat laughed. "I used to joke with my sisiters that I'd have lots more presetns under my treee than any of them from all the guest who we'd invite... me and my Alfie..."

"What did you see in him?"
"What?"
"Well you've never told me what he was like and why you fell for him, in fact I don't know anything about him. Why did you love him?"
"I... I don't know. He was just perfect... he used to bring me breakfast in bed on a tray... toast and orange juice on the side. We'd walk in the park through the rain, wind and sun, the weather didn't matter as long as we were together.
He used to wear this old West Ham shirt, he didn't want an up to date one like other people... he insisted on wearing this old thing and everytime he wore had it one it made me want to cuddle him, and I did. Over and over again. He even made it snow on Christmas day...
There were lots of reasons but I know that everytime I saw him or heard someone mention his name I'd get a stupid big grin across my face. He made me so proud."
