“This one’s from me”, Aunt Miranda smiled passing Willa a wrapped box, her soft voice blocking out the noise of the ongoing birthday festivities.
”Ooh, what is it?” Willa chirped, though knowing Aunt Miranda and herself, a nature theme seemed most probable.
Gently peeling back the wrapping paper, and opening the box, Willa revealed what she declared as the most beautiful, shiny, ladybird wellies, littered with black polka dots, and complete with curly antennae’s.
”Oh Aunt Miranda….they’re gorgeous” she exhaled
Aunt Miranda smiled, flashing Willa a quick wink before taking another sip of her punch. “I think you’re going to have lots of fun in them”.
Something told Willa that Aunt Miranda was letting on less than she knew about these wellies.
