They discussed Prom and silly boys who talked big, but couldn’t tear open a ****** They squabbled over pole-position in a race that didn’t matter- And analysed events made cinematic in re-telling. I leafed through a magazine: One Girl’s Plan to Meet and MARRY A MILLIONAIRE (who isn’t a creep) ~How to dress to be taken seriously Top Career Women Tell Their Secrets ~Hot spring fashion The TRAP of Living Together ~CK One (selling equality) For a moment I pictured myself applying lipstick, then thought better not. It was all ******** I shoved the magazine back in my bag- with Tess, exam texts, and a clean change of clothes. The bus stopped right outside. He made me tea, and I read bedtime stories to his kids. After: We drank white-wine in the garden, kissed and found peace- Searched for stars in a sky the colour of storms.
