Weirdo – Sara Pascoe

Description

“I’VE STILL GOT YOUR JUMPER YOU WERE DRUNK YOU KISSED ME I WAS COLD.”

Tonight, Sophie is working at a pub, about to wrap cutlery, when she turns to find Chris ordering two G&T’s.

Chris: the man she travelled to Sydney to see. The trip which cost so much money it maxed out her credit card on the flight alone, just so she could ‘accidentally’ bump into him on Bondi beach is now standing in front of her. In Essex.

Sophie is trying not to think too much about Chris, as well as trying not to think about:
1) Debt collection letters.
2) Her mum, her sister and her sister’s new fiancé, James, who is also Sophie’s ex – and the money she owes them.
3) Texts from Ian, her current boyfriend – although that’s not as hard as 1 & 2 as he’s quite good at coming up with reasons for them not to have any physical contact.

Chris is back. It’s a sign. It must be a sign.

Sophie is about to find out how far she’ll go to see if she has a future with Chris. If only she can work out how to behave like a normal, laid-back person first.
