I went to Tilly's house after work got the bus there walked the country lane. Her mother opened the door. O its you she said. I nodded in affirmation. You best come in she said grudgingly how was Richmond? I hesitated for a moment had she guessed or was she fishing. It was fine I said. She closed the door after me Tilly was in Richmond the same time as you she said standing at the doorway to the living room. Was she? God what a coincidence if I’d know we could have met I said. Yes couldn't you she said and walked off. I sat on a sofa no one else was there her sister and brothers were out. After a few moments Tilly came didn't know you were coming she said. Thought I’d surprise you I said. You have she said she sat down Mum knows you were at Richmond the same time as I was although she doesn't know we met I think she suspects. I thought she might by her manner how are you? I said. All right work is a bore but it pays my bills and allows me to get the clothes I want and not what my mother buys any more. She kissed me briefly and you how are you? she said. Better now after that kiss I said wishing her old lady wasn’t there so we go and try out Tilly's bed.
