‘Did you hear that?’
‘It must’ve been the lifeboat flare.’

‘I don’t think so.’
‘Then a gas explosion.’
‘Did any of you just hear a loud bang?’ Ronan asked.
‘What?’ Conor said, looking over.
‘An explosion?’
‘What explosion?’
‘It seems we were the only ones to hear it.’
‘You can let go off my arm now.’
‘People are staring, Ronan.’
‘This is the woman I’m going to marry.’
‘Marry?’
‘Yes,’ Lisa said to own surprise.
