“That's right. Sidney Collingwood. Of course everyone calls me Sid.”
“And I'm Theo,” she said, “I'm used to my name being shortened that way.”
They laughed and she couldn't help but notice his front teeth in a straight row; a mark of strength and tenacity, her father had said. She was thinking, I like your dove-grey eyes, Sidney Collingwood. It goes nicely with your silver hair.
