A Dead Living

JOHN:

You look stunning....

LUCY:

This silly old skirt, blouse

and heels?

JOHN:

How did you manage to walk

two miles wearing them?

LUCY:

A girl has to do what a girl

has to do John

JOHN:

You'd have got wolf whistled

galore on the way over here

I'd imagine. Uncomfortable?

Yeah - I'm sorry, I'm out of

line....

LUCY:

No – It's fine John. It's been

ages since I've had such a

compliment........So does Suzy

enjoy her job?

JOHN:

Ha ha...She had a slight

meltdown before setting off to

work a few minutes back – She

loves her job but hates it

being in the city.

LUCY:

Maybe she could get a job

close by

JOHN:

Truth be told, I prefer it

this way. It gives me

breathing space throughout

the day, and there's that old

saying - absence makes the

heart grow fonder.

LUCY:

So true - John, I feel a bit

sticky after all that walking.

Would I be imposing too much

to ask if I could take a

shower?

JOHN:

Of course – No problem...

You'll find towels in the

cupboard on the right at the

top.

LUCY:

Thank you so much for this

JOHN:

You're welcome.
