Page 51 of Only You

Andrew had bought Olivia a custom-made doll. One that looked like her. Star was doing the same for Skylar, so the girls would play with their look-a-like dolls that afternoon.

Ana got up, grabbed a present from under the tree, and handed it to Olivia.

“This should go well with your new doll, I think.”

Olivia smiled at Ana before turning back to the tree. She snatched up the present I had bought for Ana from us both.

“This is from Daddy and me,” Olivia said, handing Ana a large box beautifully wrapped.

Ana looked at him and raised an eyebrow. Oops, he’d been caught out.

“Thank you, Olivia,” Ana said, leaning forward and giving her a kiss on the cheek.

She then whispered something in Olivia’s ear. Olivia squealed and ran to the back of the tree.

“Can’t wrap, huh?” Ana said, nudging him on the shoulder.

Andrew coughed as the hairs rose on his arms and neck.

“You’ve caught me out,” he said, sending her a cheeky grin.

His body froze as she rolled her eyes at him, his mouth becoming moist. Olivia interrupted his thoughts as she returned carrying a large flat present.

“This one is for you, Daddy, from Ana.”

Andrew smiled, taking the present from his daughter. He hadn’t expected Ana to get him anything. She was a student, after all.

“Thank you,” he said.

Olivia had returned to the floor and was tearing open the present Ana had given her. Ana grinned as Olivia squealed in delight.

“Ana, it’s just like my Halloween costume,” she said, holding up the tiny miniature version of the dress Ana had made her. There were several other outfits, as well as the present. Ana had obviously been busy. Olivia launched herself at Ana, Ana catching her mid-flight.

“Thank you, thank you,” she said.

“They should fit your new doll. If there are any problems, we can make some alterations.”

Olivia squeezed her around the neck before turning to Andrew and holding out the beautiful miniature clothes. Andrew took the outfit. He stared in wonder.

“These are amazing,” he said, his eyes capturing hers. “You should think about making these and selling them.”

Ana shook her head. “These are for fun,” she said. “I need to concentrate on my studies.”

Andrew let it drop, but she really was incredibly talented.

“Come on, Ana, open your present.” Olivia was shoving Ana’s present into her hands.

Ana smiled at her.

“Okay, but I think I need your help.”

Olivia didn’t need to be asked twice, helping Ana tear off the paper. Andrew watched as Ana’s jaw dropped. Her eyes flew to his.

“Thank you,” she said. “This is...” Andrew watched as Ana ran her fingers gently over the material. Her shining eyes flew to his. “I... don’t... know... what... to… say,” she stammered.

Andrew rested a hand over hers before he could stop himself and gently squeezed it. Andrew had been to a haberdashery, one the costume designers at the television station had recommended. They had helped him choose the swathes of luxury Mulberry Silk.

“As long as you like it,” Andrew said.
