Lauren pushed her hair right off

             her face. It fell back again. Her eyes


             had black eye-liner smudged around

             the edges. Twelve years old and

             wearing make-up! Well, Gary wasn’t


             impressed. It looked gross, he

             thought.


                     Lauren was unzipping another

             bag now pulling stuff out. She tossed


             a muddle of tops, jeans, tights half on

             to the bed and half on to the floor.


             More carefully she undid a smaller

             bag and began unloading her


             possessions:  a soft pig (pink of

             course), a magazine, a jewellery box,

             an iPhone, a lamp, a box of candles


             and a bag of food. From this she

             pulled out a packet of chocolate

                                                                  45
