When I was sitting with Monica in the cinema auditorium I was thinking about the last time Norman took me out to watch a film or even took me out period? It was well over a year.  He only has time for his friends nowadays. From work to home shower then gone. While reminiscing I could hear my name called from a distance gradually sounding louder and louder. Monica was calling me Joyce, Joyce, Joyce!  I jumped as returning back to reality……’Yes sis sorry.’

Monica gave me that look ‘Sis that was great I said.’  I tried to put on a brave face ‘Yeah it was really good..thanks for inviting me. I know I haven’t been much fun lately.’  Monica put her hand on my shoulder ‘Don’t be silly sis your doing just fine.’

I could not believe as we were turning into the road to go to the car…
