Introduction to Roberta in the books

“She’s here, Neve.” My mom wiped down the pale blue counter. “Sorry to run out on you, but your dad and I need to hurry to make it to our meeting with the coffee roaster in Nelson.

Can you keep an eye on things while you have your tea?”

“Of course, Mom.”

“Thanks, sweetie. We’ll see you at home.” My mom gave me a side hug and kissed my cheek. Gone were the days when she could give me a peck on top of my head.
