John thinks things are much better, I told Wendy. He thinks we don’t need your services anymore. I’d left him home because both of us didn’t need to go to explain. She seemed a bit surprised. Marjorie this is just when you need me, she said and jangled her bangles as she pushed back her hair. The honeymoon period isn’t going to last and you need to learn life skills. And you have these ‘life skills’ I said. What would a fat lesbian know about life skills? A three day course off the internet isn’t a qualification Wendy, I said, it’s a liability if you ask me. I said she needed to get out in the real world, to see how the other half lives. It’s not rocket science I said. She reached for the tissues, and I knew I’d hit the nail on the head.
