The One I Love
“In his thirty-six years on the planet his longest had been three years. He had married Bella six months after he’d ended a disastrous but very passionate affair with a dancer called Heidi. She was twenty-three and liked to take E or alternatively acid on weekends. He hadn’t bothered to take E in his teens and twenties with his peers so he was damned if he was going to do it in his thirties. Also he’d witnessed a guy in college attempt to hack off his own foot with a wooden spoon while screaming... that the eagles had landed after a particularly bad acid trip, so that was out. Besides, as a respectable bank manager the last thing in the world he wanted was to be found in a club in Dublin off his tits and bouncing off walls or screaming bloody murder while attempting to land himself on the moon.Heidi resented that he didn’t share her interests and he found it difficult to live with someone who was in a bad mood from Sunday morning to Tuesday night. So, class A drugs were blamed for the demise of their relationship.MoreLess
