Your husband was a reserved shy man, the complete opposite of you. Simon hated attention drawn to him, especially from strangers. He can’t handle any mildly inappropriate conversations either. You never cared. Always laughing and smiling saying what’s on your mind.

Your twin girls, Malaya and Evangeline (now aged four) were very social and energetic like you. Not an ounce or social anxiety within them.

Today you were young shopping with him, for a summer wardrobe. And he bloody dreaded it. Deep down he loved seeing you be energetic and smiley, but every single time Simon looked his way he felt like dying.

Some of the things you said made his face go red. You and no fear of someone judging you.
