Lucy

So, Grace, any action yet?

I snort into my hand. Talk about deflecting Lucy!

I’ve made a friend and we’re seeing Budapest together

Eliza

Is it a man?

Kezia

Is it a man?

Lydia

Are you banging yet?

Seriously? I’ve been here a few days and I just got left at the altar.

No banging will be taking place on this holiday.

Boo

Lydia

Boo

I’m shaking my head and giggling when Lucy opens a private chat with me.

Lucy

Hey

Hey, everything okay?

I don’t even get the three dots. There is simply nothing. Perhaps she’s punishing me for ignoring her for the past few days.

Lucy

Mark’s bit on the side is pregnant

The enormity of the words almost blindside me. I stare at it for what seems like forever.

“Do you require any assistance?” Katya calls from the other side of the curtain.

“Er…no,” I reply, shoving my phone back into the coat pocket hurriedly before shrugging it off to toss on yet another large couch. “I’m fine.”

I pull off the first outfit, slide into it, hardly even looking at what I’m wearing. It fits perfectly. Katya clearly knows her job.

“Underwear?” Katya trills, pulling the curtain to one side.
