Just at that moment didn’t a car pull in by the shop. Just because she worked in a fancy hairdresser’s. Looking down her snooty nose at our tatty uniforms. It was half dark in there, the electricity was cut off again.Īnd there was stuck up Janice herself coming out. There were a crowd of girls milling about and inside sheltering. A few old cars and air-vans whizzing by, and the wide road as grey as the sky. It’s a big wide road and windy, and the rain was beginning again. It all began one day I was walking back to school after the dinner break. Maybe I loved and feared him so much I was blind to his faults. Of which I, Linda, was the oldest, being about fifteen at the time. You wouldn’t believe the nerve of the old bastard, and him married with four kids. When he took a fancy to Janice he swept her off her feet. Like a pack of randy dogs sniffing after her.īut my dad wasn’t one of them. There were a whole gang of them in our school had their eye on Janice. Which only spurred them on more, men being what they are. But sooner or later she’d tell all of them to drop dead. She used to have fellas queuing up to go out with her. It was easy enough to see what he fancied in her. I should’ve known what he was up to all right but I hadn’t a clue. ‘A big, wet, pouting, splash of a kiss.’- Linda ‘All my nerves were screaming -‘You can’t fly. ‘Flocks of dunlin and starlings, wheeling as one soul’. ‘They’d finally figured out what wild is’. ‘Suddenly it was snowing red rose petals in Foxford Bridge.’ ‘Oh Lulu Lululu.’- Barney gurgled, urgently.’. ‘I’m 13, I hardly shave, and pus squirts out my spots.’. ‘I really could hear bagpipes far away!’. I settled down to spend the long day crying.’. ‘I was turning into a powerful switched-on woman.’. ‘subvert them, seduce them, bamboozle them!’. ‘Waves of happiness were beaming off her’. ‘Also I’m thinking Maxie wants to suicide.’. ‘Being famous won’t give Moonie her mama back.’. ‘running and laughing together down the concrete highway’. ‘.ripples of pleasure ran up and down my body.’. ‘That’s if this contraption ever gets to the top.’. ‘Why can’t she have you as well? Why can’t she? Bloody hell!’. ‘There’s a fierce lot of pairing off down here tonight.’. ‘Maybe you’re not a real man if you don’t act that way.’. ‘For this I come to see the horse’s mouth.’. ‘Then I find Maxie has you captured in her bed!’. ‘You’re the magic boy I found on my doorstep.’. Shaking out the feathers of my giant snowy wings.
‘I’d just spoken the unspeakable in public.’. ‘Hey here comes the old lap dog himself.’. She whispered something shocking in my ear. ‘Don’t get silly and hysterical, honey.’. ‘Running through that suddenly golden snow.’.
‘Don’t be naughty, little darling, don’t be bad.’. ‘A big, wet, pouting, splash of a kiss.’.
