The Perfect Match (2014)
“She wanted to make Michael something they’d learned to cook, as a thank you. She just needed to decide what. Rum babas? Focaccia? Or her own favourite, cheese bread?
She was in the bakery aisle inspecting a packet of spelt flour as someone had once told her it was less fattening, when she became aware of the sound of sniffing. She looked up. It was Michael’s youngest, Lucy.
She glided out of the aisle with alacrity, irritated at having her shopping interrupted, certain that she didn’t want to h...ave to say hello to one of her least favourite, people. The sniffing was probably an allergy – Lucy was just the sort of person to have allergies – but why did she have to have them in her Waitrose? There was a perfectly good one in Cirencester where she could sniff away to her heart’s content. Did the girl have no idea of boundaries?
Annoyed that she’d allowed herself to be driven away from the specialist flours, Alice went back.
Lucy was still sniffing, but in a way that was more like a sob.MoreLess
