Chiara said she has a competition on Saturday

She accepts that I have a long standing commitment to joining my friend on Elba, she has been to Elba herself with her friends. My Mama will support her at the competition which I know she will do well at.

I admit that I am sad that I will miss it, and usually family is first with me but my friend has had a tough time with a relationship collapse and I have been supporting her as she goes through the transition.
