‘
H e didn’t try for sex?’ Zoe sounded astonished.
‘No. He just kissed me on the cheek and said good-
night.’ It was a warm, soft kiss. He had good lips. Not too
sloppy or wet, or dry, or nippy. Just right.
‘And he was outside your flat?’
‘Yes, I told you, we shared a cab but he didn’t get out of the
cab, he took it on.’
‘Did you ask him to come up for coffee?’
‘Oh, come on, Zoe. You know that’s not my style. That
question cannot be delivered innocently, at least not after a date.
I might as well have said the crop, mask and condoms are
upstairs.’
‘Are they?!’ Zoe sounded excited, almost impressed.
‘No, of course not. I’m joking,’ mumbled Anna, a tiny bit
sulkily. ‘Not unless there are any stashed away after your last visit.’
Zoe sighed and then pronounced, ‘I don’t think he can be
that into you.’
‘That’s not a very nice thing to say.’
‘Well then, is he gay?’
‘No.’
‘You seem confident. Was he a bad dresser?’
