“She didn’t bump into anyone she knew there: they wouldn’t have recognised her, anyway. With a basebal hat pul ed over unwashed hair and huddled into an old sweater of Alex’s that stil smel ed of him, she was unrecognisable. He’d taken nearly al of his clothes when she’d been in Diisseldorf, lots of his possessions too. He’d left only the big things, like the TV they’d bought together and a few pictures. The apartment looked bleak without al the little things that had made it his home. Sitting o...n her own in misery, Daisy didn’t answer the phone, although she jumped every time it rang in case it was Alex. It never was. The machine got al the cal s: from Mary to see how the ‘flu’ was, from Paula, from Daisy’s old friend Fay, and once, from her mother, saying she was going on holiday to Prague this summer with Daisy’s aunt, who was recuperating from an operation. Her mother liked talking to the answering machine and had far livelier chat with it than she ever had with Daisy.MoreLessRead More Read Less
