Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered - Plot & Excerpts
Jamie would be twenty-eight now, too. I wondered what he’d be like. Very grown up I imagined. He was a doctor now. I couldn’t even imagine it. Chloé – who’d gone to Edinburgh University with him – had a few mutual friends, so she’d filled me in on a few snippets of information about him every now and then. In fact, the last thing she’d told me was that he’d got engaged to another doctor. I touched his sixteen-year-old face in the photograph gently, wondering if our paths would cross while I was in Claddach. It seemed inevitable if he was looking after Suky and I felt a bit sick just thinking about it. What would I say to him?Carefully I pinned the photo back where it had been and replaced the drawer just as my phone rang, startling me out of my memories. It was Dom.‘Hello, sweetheart,’ he said. ‘How’s things?’Pleased to hear from him, I filled him on Suky’s treatment and what Chloé was up to. He told me about some office politics that were annoying him and mentioned he’d been out drinking on Friday night.‘Who was there?’ I asked.
