Eight months later…The September sun shone through the trees in university park as Kate walked the short distance to her favourite lunchtime coffee ...ouse. The town buzzed with the return of the students after the summer break. Porters struggled as heavy trunks were loaded onto trollies and wheeled into the colleges. David and Kate had managed to work their way through her dalliance.It hadn’t been easy, Kate eventually told David everything that happened that night and he took it badly. He moved. I must have fallen asleep as I woke to the sound of the telephone ringing, it was mum and dad just checking up on us, told them all was well and that William was in the shower. Hanging up I looked at the clock, it was only 9.30pm so I decided to get dressed and go see Angus and then go for a shower.Walking down the yard, the sun only beginning to set over the hill, it was a beautiful sight, i sometimes rode up the hill and watched the sunset.Tonight I went to check that Angus had plenty of hay. “Well “Mavis, what are your thoughts about the way this Virus has been handled…?” Mavis then proceeded to enlighten the presenter, about how she would have closed all Airlines, boats, trains, and roads, how she was pissed off with the Koran and its worshipers still having Friday prayers when good English folk couldn’t go to church, get married or bury their dead. And how the buggers in parliament should be put against a wall and shot! As expected as soon as Mavis drew breath the presenter cut. She looked at me quizzically, clearly giving me the benefit of the doubt for a few moments.“I, um. I’m a… this is my first time doing this,” I finished lamely.“Oh, that’s okay honey,” she said. Yet, in her eyes, I could see her thinking: great, just what I needed today.She walked around to the foot of the bed and took me by the hand, indicating I should stand. Facing her, the height difference was more pronounced than I remembered. She led me around to the side of the bed and sat at the edge.
