1. Out of the blue, Ambrose
receives a brusque phone
call from a solicitors. Her
agent has died in a car
crash, she will get a small
cheque in the post from
the will. The caller rings
off abruptly, leaving her in
shock. Why did all those
she loved have to die?

2. Bernice wasted no time, and dragged the
grieving Ambrose out for a drink. There was
nothing like drowning your sorrows to well,
drown your sorrows.

3. Bernice suggets she
and Ambrose start
working together.
Ambrose didn’t normally do a lot of
drinking, but on this particular
evening she sunk quite a few. She had
been orphaned early, and her agent
had been a surrogate parent for years
before she’d become an adult.

4. Uncomfortable with the emotions
going on, Bernice changed the subject.
When her parents had finally died, a
bit of creative thinking was all she’d
needed to get back on her feet.
Ambrose would be fine, because she
had her to help her out.

5. Bernice thawed enough to let Ambrose
have the hug she so desperately needed.
She had meant what she said, she would
help Ambrose out. She just hoped it
wouldn’t take too much, or too long.

6. While her new neighbour had been bumming around (as
far as she could tell anyway) Jen had been much busier.
She was constantly practising speeches for interviews,
honing her techniques and building her confidence. But as
yet, her work had been for vain.

7. When a call finally came offering her a
job, she played it very cool. She asked
about the pay, even pretended she wasn’t
interested to get it raised a few thousand
simoleans.
She was thrilled to bits when they
informed her she started at the beginning
of next week. She was back!

8. Without really thinking Jen flew up
the stairs to tell the nearest person
her good news. After knocking, she
suddenly had reservations. What
would Angus care?

9. She was invited in, and shyly apologised for
disturbing him. She explained how she had just
got a job, and had to tell someone before she
burst! To her surprise, he was delighted for her,
and suggested they go out to dinner to celebrate.

10. Jen dug a dress out of her
wardrobe from when she
and Pablo had been dating.
It was a lot less flashy than
the dresses he’d preferred
she wear when they were
married, and she loved it.
She also found herself
unexpectedly excited
about the prospect of
dinner with a man.

11. Angus scrubbed up pretty well when
he was trying, and seemed to be in a
really good mood. She got swept up in
the idea of the evening, she giggled,
and flirted, never stopped smiling… and
found him to be much better company
than she had ever imagined.

12. After their meal, Angus suggested
they walk back and make the
most of the beautiful evening. He
took her through the park,
wanting to show her something.

13. There was a butterfly
bush, or buddleia in
one corner, and there
was a species of
butterfly that stayed
out at dusk. Jen
melted, and gave
Angus a close hug. She
had completely
misjudged him.

14. Back home, Jen looked back on
the evening and feels like she’s let
herself down. The first sign of
friendship from a man and she’s
flinging herself at him like a
desperate teen. Perhaps she
wasn’t over Pablo as much as she
thought she was, but there was
no excuse to go googly-eyed over
a slob like McKirrick.

15. Angus on the other hand thought it had been a pretty
good evening. It was a bit weird Jen was a politician, he
was normally opposed to the powers that be. But she
seemed cool, and he respected her views. He wrote
that, and about how much he had enjoyed the evening
on his blog and went to bed.
