‘You’re the Grand Canyon, the Taj Mahal, the Pyramids of Giza,’ he whispered in her ear. Allan lit up a cigarette while Caroline fell asleep beside him in the early hours of the morning.

There had been a lightness in her step as she danced around the kitchenette in her flat or ‘apartment’ as Allan liked to call it. He had always known it would come to this. That he would do the leaving, and not her. Not Caroline. He thinks of the faded upholstery in the lounge. Allan and Caroline watched a documentary on the television eating Chinese. Al ate his with a fork. Caroline with chopsticks. She smiled at him now and then. Asked him if he was enjoying himself. Apologised that she didn’t cook. There was nothing in the tiny flat.
