Chapter 82

When I wake up again I'm in bed. Looking around, I see that I'm alone in the room. I breathe a sigh of relief and get up. Realising I'm still in my pyjamas, I start rifling through the wardrobe. I pull out a boring, nondescript outfit, not bothering to look impressive. I pull it on and walk from the room, not bothering to style my hair or put on any makeup.

"Vincent." I stop dead. "We need to talk."

"I'm fine, Naboo."

"No you aren't."

"Yes I am."

"No, you aren't. Come and sit down."

"Naboo, I really am fine."

"Vincent, come and sit down." I turn around and sit at the table, opposite Naboo. "Why were you asleep on the bathroom floor?"

"I was tired."

"Vincent." He says sternly.

"I fell asleep. I didn't mean to."

"Why were you in the bathroom in the first place?"

"It's not important."

"Yes, it is. Why were you there?"

"I just was."

"Vincent-" he begins, but I cut him off.

"It doesn't matter, Naboo!" I almost shout. "I'm late for work." I mutter and stalk out. I make my way down into the shop, leaving Naboo sat at the table.
