Julie let herself into Tony\u2019s small bedsit. She pulled off her shoulder bag as she closed the door behind her and took off her suede knee length coat. in one full sweep.
\u201cCome as yourself why don\u2019t you.\u201d Tony said as he swung his bare feet off the sofa.
\u201cI can\u2019t wait to show you what I found while out shopping, \u201c
\u201cLet me guess, another must have handbag.\u201d
Julie fished out a glossy leaflet from her bag and held it up in front of her like a well-earned certificate.
Tony sat up straighter \u201cA festival. Where we off?\u201d
\u201cNo more partying for us. Welcome to adult hood.\u201d
\u201cNo, you\u2019re okay. I\u2019ll give that one a miss.\u201d
\u201cWhen me and Sian were passing the estate agents. It just jumped out of me. It must be fate. Our destiny.\u201d Julie hugged the leaflet against her chest. \u201cThe apartments huge and you can see over the bay.\u201d
\u201cPhew that\u2019s okay then. For a minute I thought you had me in mind for a move.\u201d Tony let out a deep whistling breath.
\u201cWell, it was me and you I had in mind for sharing. But if you would rather stay in this rabbit coop. Julie stuffed the leaflet back in her handbag.
\u201cI\u2019m sure it’s a lovely apartment. But I like my own space Julie, and we do work opposite shifts.\u201d
\u201cThat would give me time to make your packed lunch.\u201d Julie again reached into her bag for the leaflet.\u201d Oh look, it\u2019s all creased.
\u201cIt must be a sign. Shows we are not ready to take such a big step.\u201d
\u201cPromise me we will be soon, won\u2019t we?\u201d
