It’s Wednesday lunchtime and we’re talking about Rose. He’s just told me that she went into Elvis & Joe’s on Monday night to watch a flipping gig! Since when does she go to gigs? What’s more, Joe thought she was me and gave her a flier to pass on. Angus says he struggled to leave it sitting on the countertop instead of pocketing it to give to me himself. ‘No,’ I reply firmly, cradling the phone to my ear. ‘Yes,’ he insists. ‘She’s going to be really hurt when she finds out and she doesn’t deserve that.’ ‘She’ll just interfere! She’ll think it’s too soon. She won’t understand.’ ‘Then we need to make her understand. I don’t want to lie to her any more. It’ll be worse in the long run. The longer this goes on behind her back, the harder it will be for her to forgive us.’ He pauses. ‘She misses you,’ he says. ‘She wants to see you.’ My heart clenches. ‘Let’s talk about it later,’ I murmur.
