She was my best friend and I truly loved that girl.She was like an older sister to me. We went to the drugstore and had apicture taken of the two of u... in one of those old picture booths whereyou could get six pictures for a quarter and we put the best one in thislocket. That picture stayed in there for many, many years. Eventually,her family moved away and I lost all track of her. I'm still sad aboutthat. After a while I stopped wearing the locket and put it away hopingthat someday I would. They planned to keep their latest works there and set up a small office. Later in the week, they hung Sigrid's picture on the finished wall. The sofa and chairs took over the space in front of the upper fireplace.Sigrid and Tom went to bed early, got up late, frequently disappeared without notice. One afternoon, Anne was in the back yard and looked up to see Sigrid's naked back against one of the window posts in their room. Tom was in front of her and they were making love. When he saw Anne,. Sarah was a freak. “The shower is on your right near the end. I’ll get your stuff ok.”“Okay….and thanks.”“No problem sweet heart. Anything for you.” I smiled. She walked away from me. I walked to the bathroom. Gorgeous! Her bathroom was massive now. I remember her bathroom being like a storage room size. As if only three people could fit. Exclude the fat people though. But now the bathroom looks like it’ll fit thirty people. A new installed jacuzzi and a brand-new bathtub. I chosen the bathtub.. The meal had the desired effect. Emma was in a really good mood and insisted on washing up the dishes. I put the garden lights on and Mum and I took a walk around the lawn whilst we smoked a cigarette, arm in arm the way that Maggie liked to walk with me. ‘She’s so cheerful it seems a shame to burst her bubble,’ Mum said. ‘I know, but it would best if we got it over with,’ I answered. We went back into the house and helped Emma dry the dishes and put them away then I poured coffee for myself.
