      Poor Julie

      Chapter One

      Honey, I’m home! Oh, I forgot, I’m a spinster. My voice cracks at the irony and I find myself in floods of tears. Soon, I am curled up on the sofa like a cat.

      Even though Dave has never been at home when I finish work, knowing that he won’t be coming through the door in the morning hurts. I face a long, lonely night on my own. The magnitude of what I have done is coming into focus. I am a gambler, a dirty, rotten gambler.

      I am not ‘Ju’ anymore. Not to Dave. I am someone else. A stranger.

      Whatever he previously thought of me dissipated in the length of a ’phone call with our bank manager.

      I find myself clinging to a cushion as if my life depends on it.

On the brink of tears from the moment I clocked on to the second I clocked off, I had to somehow survive the shift without telling a soul that Dave has left me – and why. I want to keep my private life private. That is as much for Dave’s sake as my own. I don’t want people dissecting my broken marriage, poring over who is to blame.

      I am the guilty party. That is all there is to it.

      You all right, Julie? Darren had asked, sensing there was something wrong the moment he clapped eyes on me.

      Yes, just a bit tired. Another lie slipped from my mouth.

      He didn’t believe me, I could tell, but he respected my right to keep whatever was troubling me to myself.

      That is one thing I
