Lizbeth put her hands over my eyes from behind in the corridor. Guess who? she said. Bridgitte Bardot I said. No it's me she said taking away her hands and turning me around. It was her red haired not blonde and those piercing eyes. Miss me? she said. Yeah very much I said although I hadn't in either sense. I was worried in case Jane came along and thought I was seeing Lizbeth behind her back. What are you doing this weekend? She said. Don't know I said help out on the farm maybe. And when you are not on the farm? Don't know maybe see Jane I said. O the ****** Jane of course don't you get bored seeing her and her nature study and birdsong and what have you Lizbeth said. No I like birdsong and what have you I replied. You will get bored with her and when you do maybe we could spend some time together and you know get down to it she said. Got to go I said. Ok Benny but maybe I will cycle over Saturday and see you she said and walked off along the corridor just as the bell rang for after recess lessons. I walked on and hoped she wouldn't turn up Saturday and spoil things but have to see I mused and see what fate brings.
