Mudlark

I woke around nine when the wind gave our French doors a sharp rattle. Jay mumbled something and rolled over. After a drowsy pause I got up and wedged the doors tighter. Rain spattered the glass.

We had got to bed around two. I lay for a while beside my warm husband hoping I'd fall back asleep, but it was far too late. I'm usually up by six-thirty. I rose, showered, and pulled on jeans and a thick plush top. I had not yet reached the point of wanting to go for a run in a downpour.
Freddy had finished the printout. It lay in a neat stack on the kitchen table.
