She looked at Sam, squatting on a footstool. โSorry I was sharp,โ she said, and to her horror tears welled in her eyes. She muttered, โTo be honest, Iโm scared.โ
โCourse you are. Thatโs why I offered.โ Sam gave a half smile. โI didnโt mean to rub it in.โ
โKitty thumped the arm of her chair. โLifeโs really shit.โ
โYeah.โ
She glared at the carpet, and Sam watched her face. After a while she groaned. โI canโt write this bloody thing on my own, and if I must have someone to help me, it might as well be you.โ
Sam grinned. โYouโd be doing me a favour, anyway. I canโt paint at the moment. My mindโs in the wrong place.โ
Kitty blew a lengthy breath at the ceiling. โI may be the first dyslexic journalist in history.โ
โIโll be here, for as long as you need me.โ Samโs expression was so kind that Kitty wanted to weep again. โOy. Donโt get all sentimental on me,โ she said, but she laid her hand onto the arm of the chair, almost as if she were reaching for him.
Sam lowered his own onto it and for the first time, Kitty did not push him away. They looked at each other, their eyes acknowledging something unspoken.
Kitty was the first to break the moment. She pulled her hand from under Samโs and shot him a sideways look. 'I will write again. You realise that, donโt you? Because if I donโt, Iโll be hell to be with.โ
โI do.โ Sam beamed at her and grabbed the pencil. โOK, how do you want to start?โ
โWell,โ Kitty said, โI have a feeling there might be a novel in this.โ
