A bit stressed, as if she should have forgotten, but that's the way
               he'd rather say things once too often than forget. Oliver is a master

               of thoroughness both in his job and privately, in everything he does.

               She answers

               "Of course I know, I'll probably drive the kids to kindergarten"

               He answers as he gets up, gives them each a kiss on the cheek,

               and rushes out the door.
               "I pick up the kids from kindergarten at 2 p.m., luckily I only have

               one meeting and some small things I have to sort out"

               And addressing Gavin and Lea he adds.


               "This afternoon you are going to the Tennis Club with father"
               In the living room, they can shortly after hear the deep sound of the

               Maserati engine as he starts it, then followed by the buzzing sound
               that gradually becomes lower, as he drives down the residential

               road and finally turns onto the heavily trafficked Beachroad.

               They continue to eat in silence. This is how it is every morning, the
               children enjoy every crumb of the homemade buns and the home-
               made Nutella, Oliver has conjured up the weekend and she enjoys

               the silence for a while. The children are busy eating, hence the

               silence. They finish eating.

               "Then you should start putting on your flight suits"

               She says as she quickly loads the dishwasher.

               She then goes out into their wide distribution hallway where both

               children are struggling to get their flight suits on.

               She squats down to help them. The children are still silent, they
               always are when they have to go out the door - Two well-behaved

               children, as people usually call them.
               She manages to spend a minute in front of the large mirror that runs

               from floor to ceiling and is built so that it fills half of the wall in the
               distribution hall, the make-up fits perfectly, not too much just
               markings but her black hair in a tight knot at the nape of the neck

               Although it's only 7:00 a.m., she can see amazingly well even
