Carl could pick up Linda from the station, when Linda was on the station she could ring up Carl in the pub.
For the first time in months Carl left work early and drove to little Moreton.
On the way he stopped and bought champagne
He arrived and put his bag in the bedroom. Linda had left clothes and shoes behind. It was like a real home to her.
Carl went to put the champagne in the fridge. Linda had forgotten to empty it before she left. There was cheese and eggs. Carl thought they would smell horrible, but they didn’t. That was a little strange.
