If you are opposed to any sort of mild language do not read. As I say it is only mild though.
Who says that hitting 50 is the time when your life as you knew it changes for the worse? For Doreen Bumble life was just beginning! Freshly divorced from her millionaire husband she made sure she had half his earnings. With nothing else to do she decided to go on a voyage of self-discovery, a voyage to Sun Hill. But were they quite ready for her?
" Ok baby lets roll" Doreen screeched in that nauseating voice.
She adjusted every single mirror in her Audi TT so it caught her in every angle. Fluffing her peroxide locks she forced the key into the ignition and revved the car up.
The radio gave a muffled tone due to the low volume so hearing her phone ring wasn't hard. The screen flashed a light blue displaying the caller, emblazoned across it were the words 'Fat Git'.
"What do you want?" she said abruptly
"On some kind of payback mission are we, don't think that your going to get custody of my baby," she replied in a cocky tone.
"Huh really well I'd hang up right now if I were you, because anymore of your big talk little man and I will be suing you and your little bitch of a girlfriend for emotional blackmail"
The conversation fell silent and it was clear that the person on the receiving end of that conversation had got fed up with the torrent of abuse being yelled at them.
"Ahh now that's better Doreen all out of our system isn't it" she smiled to her reflection.
The day was bright and the sun was beaming down onto the tar-covered pavement, as the car door swung open it reflected the light back off. One foot stepped out and then other, her petite feet were placed inside
Fuchsia stilettos. As she stood up she turned in a stiff fashion, arms stiff by her side, as if she were mimicking a penguin. Clutching her bag with perfectly manicured hands she slammed the car door, stopped, flicked her short hair and walked inside the building. Once inside she stood at the front desk and fiddled inside her bag, finally finding what she needed she pulled it out. JT was on reception and she handed him a brown envelope with the words 'Sergeant Smith' on them. He looked up and gave her a confused look, aware she spoke.
" Hello, Darlin' my names Doreen Bumble I've been sent here, im the new PC well im a pro…a pro…damn what's that long word they call ya'?" she searched in her mind but she simply couldn't remember.
"A probationer?" JT told her.
"That's it love, aint' you a clever one corr ill ave' to be careful around you, your as sharp as a knife" She giggled pinching his cheek slightly as she leant over the desk.
Just at that moment a tall dark haired man walked through the wooden fireproof door into reception.
"Oi PC Hemmingway sort out your personal problems when you're off duty, get through that door into the briefing room is that clear." He moaned.
"Yes, Sarge" she groaned walking towards the door at a snails pace.
Doreen turned away from the action and faced JT,
"He's a bit hot under the collar aint' he" she pointed out,
"That's Sergeant Smith, I think he's got woman trouble." He gossiped.
Hearing his name Smithy turned to JT and asked what was going on, gesturing towards Doreen he said,
"This is Doreen Bumble, the new PC Sarge"
"Your late" he stated
"I know. Ohhh the woes of love eh, like you in that respect Mr Smith, just heard that you're going through a tough time with your woman, is that right"
She enquired; JT rolled his eyes at the fact that she had just put both of them in it.
"Listen its your first day aint' it, so let me give you a few pointers, number 1 don't turn up late to work and number 2 don't discuss my private life as I don't appreciate it." He snarled.
Giving a sigh she replied,
"Ok my lips are sealed don't you worry" tapping him on the chest with her index finger,
As she progressed towards the door she said in a raised tone,
"Oh and If you ever need anyone to talk to, you know about woman trouble just talk to auntie Doreen".
JT giggled at Smithy's embarrassment and said to him,
"Yeah, she seems nice, very sweet little lady"
"JT who are you kidding she's neurotic".
