Sex, Lies and Lullabies
Chapter One
"What's the matter with you?" Yvonne asked Kerry in a sarcastic tone as she watched her dawdle along to the panda car with an unimpressed look on her face.
"Just don't Yvonne im not in the mood" She replied sharply
"Fine just as long as you agree to drop the attitude today, I didn't come to work to put up with your whining" Slightly annoyed with being paired up with Kerry, Yvonne moaned in reply.
She could see there was something clearly up with her partner but by the way Kerry's face looked Yvonne knew not to ask.
Arriving at the shout they could clearly see the extent of the damage to the property of which they had been called to. A rich blue paint had been sprayed up the wall in a rash manner, covering most of the front wall of the house and a window.
From the look on the womans face it was clear to see that she was as impressed with her newly decorated house as Yvonne was with Kerrys personality.
"Better late than never I suppose" The woman complained while zipping up her fleece as far as it could go. The colour of it was grey complimenting her dismal attitude.
"We came as soon as we could" Yvonne replied in a polite manner, stepping in before Kerry came out with some unacceptable remark.
"So what appears to be the problem?" Kerry asked, stating the obvious.
Noticing a young boy tied to the telegraph pole at the side of the house she looked at Yvonne and pointed in his direction.
"And why is there a boy tied to your telegraph pole?" She probed in a disbelieving voice.
Crossing her arms so they rested just below her chest the woman replied,
"It's obvious it was this little lout was the one who caused all the damage to my house, so I tied him up. What did you expect I couldn't wait for you lot to intervene he would be half way across Canley by then."
Deciding that she had had enough of this woman's behaviour Kerry untied him only for him to run away from the scene.
"What are you standing there for, go and catch the little sod." The woman in the grey fleece replied.
"You tied him to a telegraph pole what do you expect?" Kerry replied in a completely unprofessional tone, one which didn't go unnoticed by Yvonne
"You little madam, I shall report you to whoever's in charge" The woman said in anger.
"See if I care" Kerry remarked while stepping closer to the woman in an intimidating fashion.
"I do apologise on behalf of my colleague" Yvonne said as she pulled Kerry towards the area car.
"Look we will drive round and see if we can spot him in the area" Yvonne continued while looking at Kerry with disbelief.
Once inside and away from hearing distance of the woman Yvonne looked at her colleague who completely denied her eye contact.
"I can't believe you just did that!" She said in total disbelief, carrying on with her lecture Yvonne said,
"You know she will go down the station and make a complaint against you"
"To be honest Yvonne I'm beyond caring about this job anymore look where its got me" Kerry replied feeling sorry for herself.
"What did you expect? To become Superintendent by the time you were 25. You need to stop feeling sorry for yourself and realise your not the only one in Kerry's world" Disgusted with her friends rash behaviour and comments Yvonne tutted before driving away.
"Don't I know it" Kerry replied as she looked down at her stomach.
