Her father couldn't tell that she'd fucked a stranger: just to raise some hell some danger; because he'd been up the whole night through, playing snooker on his computer, with some cunt in Peru.
He made her a tea, he got me a beer. He agreed it was hot, even for this time of year. Then he passed her a picture of another big sister she'd never seen: she began to cry and scream.
She left the room, he glared at the ground, where he noticed I was wearing boots and he frowned. He said: "Sweating in boots is so bad for your feet. Especially in this heat."
I looked into his kitchen. There was a court summons on his fridge. It was attached by one of them magnetic things. And various pictures of two different family scenes, with one of her squeezed in between.
Then he asked if I was working. I said: "No nothing's changed. Me and Amanda are just the same as the last time you saw us, except another bit's died." The two of us conjointly sighed.
And all the while the sun burned down. It got so hot. It got so hot, that my eyeballs browned.
