About Last Weekend
By Alyssa Swan
Oh my God, this can’t be happening! Out of all the buses he could have gotten on, why did he have to get on this one? Denise shakes her head minutely as she gazes out of the window, her teeth biting through her bottom lip fretfully. Her temperature suddenly soars as her embarrassment sears her body. I’m not ready to see him, he only dumped me last weekend!
“Mum, you ’kay?” Her son touches her hand causing her to turn to look at his large brown enquiring eyes. Such a loving five-year-old, with an innocent voice that carries his concern perfectly.
She purses her lips and gives him a little smile as she tucks a strand of his sandy blond hair behind his ear. “Yes darling, mummy’s fine. Just thinking.”
Jamie smiles brightly at her, wrapping his tiny arms around her torso and hugging her tightly. Her heart swells as Jamie delivers just what she needs upon spying Chris boarding the bus. She drops a kiss on top of his head as she reciprocates the hug, keeping an eye on Chris as he swipes his Oyster card on the reader. Her heart flip flops as she realises that he is not alone, his eight-year-old daughter Georgina is with him.
