‘Well, I’m not sad,’ Harry insisted.

‘I’ve had a thought,’ said Amy, changing the subject, before it could turn into an argument. ‘Are you still looking for a name for the campervan?’

‘We haven’t thought of one we both like,’ Matt admitted.

‘What about “Shooting Star”?’

‘That’s a great name,’ Matt said. ‘What do you think, Oliver?’

Everyone looked at Oliver. Oliver looked in turn at his dad and then at Amy.

‘I suppose … it’s not a bad name, is it?’ he said.

‘Thanks, Amy. We could paint it on the side of the campervan, and have some stars painted on it too. To remind you of Mum, Olly, whenever we go in the campervan.’

‘And you. And you too,’ Oliver insisted. ‘You want to remember Mum too. Don’t you?’

‘Of course I do, but let’s not make ourselves sad by thinking about the past. Let’s think about now, and look for shooting stars and enjoy the last night of our holiday and the campfire.’
