Pat sat down and stared at
Sophie. Sophie was savouring the moment Pat could see that. Sophie pushed the
white wine across. “Relax a little. You look so stiff – like you have the
coat-hanger still in your jumper. Relax. You’ll draw attention to us.” She slid
back in her chair and her long legs swung over the next chair.
Pat watched Sophie’s trainers
swing back and forth. The light sparkled on them and she felt she was in some
old-fashioned ballroom as the light circulated round and round. The twinkle of
rainbow was almost hypnotic as it drew her in. In too deep.
“ Ah, so you do know something
about fashion then? Crystal Shimmer - obvs not genuine. But still classy – and
expensive, eh?” she said proudly, wiggling her feet to get maximum effect.
Style is a way to say who you are
without having to speak.
“Tacky is another way to say who
you are without having to speak,” Pat thought.
