"Tarrant? Can you make me a hat?" Alice asked him one day.
He looked at her playfully. "Can I? Of course I can, I'm a hat maker, aren't I?"
Alice smiled and rolled her eyes. "Fine then, will you?"
"What sort of hat?" He asked.
"A very special hat. I want to give it to my mother as an un-birthday present."

Helen just shook her head as she open the hat box. She pulled out the hat…
"It - it's a -"
