H: Harry
C: Chelsea

H: It was nice to see Tara again. She’s obviously living the good
life down under. She looked the happiest I’ve seen her in a
long time.

C: Yeah, she did. Makes you wonder if she’s had some good news.

H: What do you mean?

C: Well, didn’t you notice?

H: Notice what?

C: Oh come on, honey! The rounded belly, the loose fitting clothes,
the way she kept putting her hand on her stomach. She’s got to
be pregnant.

H: Pregnant!? Surely she would have told us if she was expecting.

C: I don’t know. I mean, she didn’t tell us about Dave until a
week before they got married, did she?

H: Yeah, but having a baby’s a bit different, surely?

C: Well, it could be that she’s waiting until she’s a bit further
along before she makes an announcement. But there’s no doubt
in my mind. I mean, she even lay off the champagne tonight,
and you know how she loves her bubbly.

H: You know, come to think of it, she didn’t touch a drop.
That is unusual.

C: See? Something’s definitely up there.

H: Well, if that’s the case I’m sure she’ll make an announcement
before too long. Why waste time speculating about it?

C: What do you mean why waste time speculating?! Speculating’s
half the fun!
