Chapter 35

• Once the new football thing is out in the open, the boys can’t get enough of it. I hear all about it on the drive back – the Portsmouth team, their cruddy uniform, their goal-scoring history.
• I try to care, but all I feel is the unholy rage in my stomach. The desire to tell Terry exactly what I think of his ill-considered loyalty test.
• And I do tell him, just as soon as I’ve stepped over their twee little threshold and Claire’s sent the boys to their rooms.
