they could be red porcelain.I can see where Luke gets that impassive expression from"right" I nod fervenrlynervously touching a strandI flounder at lastshe is rapping imperiously on the glass panelgives a wintry smileI press on doggedlyshe gives me a patronizing smilecalls Elinor "Mrs. Shermen" very deferentiallya sign asking patrons to respect the tranquilityI had my jabs for Thailandalbeit slightly hystericallywhen I emerge an hour and a half laterwhat seems like a zillion floors in a gilded lift there are cacading flower arrangements as huge and sumptuous as the rest of the apartmentwith a final squirt of Eternity go back into the throng go back into the throng

the elegantly coiffured head in front of meher eyes like daggers

The deflation in Luke's voice is unmistakableShe said you were…overzealousI can't tell him she just shoved it back into the boxwrenching my mind away from the Oscarwhy did he think you were in the artificial limb unitI say evasivelyI look authoritativethe daunting fashion mazeI feel she said this little spiel quite a few times todayI want to look kind of…smart and sassy

I notice a dark-haried woman in tortoiseshell glasses

trawling round the shop myselfI just had no idea they'd be so pedanticIs there any posibility of litigation?I stare at him in dismay I can see the faint glimmer of a smileskiing down the edge of a precipicesurreptitously I glance at myself in a nearby mirror

I retort, feeling slightly rattled.

drifting into oblivion

these are stupid little things don't faze meIt’s a huge article, spanning the whole center spreadmy heart is thuddingI feel a swoop od fear change of venueYou're always going to find something to fret about " Luke" I say despairingly "N-no" I stammer we'll prove you were there, get a retraction I feel rears pricking at my eyes Do you know what the perception of me is in this city? The general perception here - for some inexplicable reason - He hits paper sharply and I wince I feel cold and shivery

how to redeem myself thrust phone down with trembling handI can hear her gearing herself up to be positive

My only consolation is, Luke looks completely plastered too

Feckless Becky. Hypocritical Becky

I can hear her gearing herself up to be positive A chap came around asking questions

Dad went for him with hedge trimmer

wallow for half an hour in rose geraniumI'll see if I can fetch her His expression is taut and set He's fumbling over the last shirt buttonI'm crouching on a ledge, trying not to slip tugging at a fringe of a cushion

to be slotted into your grand magnificent plan

his face ashen with anger threre's got to be a sence of proportion in all thisI feel shame drenching over me like hot waterI sink into a sumtuous leather chair It arrives in an huge glass, warm and reviving I wanted to pour out all my woesOne gets spooked, they all get spooked he will tactfully slip away I bawl my eyes outHe sounds so completely deadpan

I cant's sit around making mindless tittle-tattle with you and suze

My voice starts to wobble treacheously

you can't heap all the blames on yourself

it would have survived a bit of adverse publicity A difference in business ethos? He needs to prioritize That boy seems fixated by making it in America

hoist my suitcase onto the pavementI had to salvage some kind of dignity somewhere

I catch sight of my haggard reflectionSuze's face crumbles in dismayLuke was so cross Suze's face is all pink and distressed you tried to keep tabs on me they should be strung up and flogged The polite stilted voices she says robustly she starts gurgling with laughteryou start having a torried arraira really impetuous, stupid I'm not a prude

I lug my bags dejectedly up the steps

I'm not a prude as though she's been scaldedI'm not laughing! I protest I stare at it, feeling mortified suze's face contorted with worry

I look too drab to be paid back as soon as is feasibly possible

you have to weigh up the pros and consThere's a subdued little silenceyou can do is sneer

looking abashed starfing rigidly at the screenstraring grimly back

zapping the sound on the television

as for remoragage your house to buy a boat this is like some deadbeat company where no one cares … I can't resist peeping out from behind the chair I find myself ducking down out of sight smirks back at him If their margins suffer, then so be it. I say dubiously I see her eyes watching appraisingly

I don't believe in futile and misleading generalizaion

Clare's voice drones sternly through the room
