‘You haven’t seen anything unusual yet?’ He asked her. ‘But what has that got to do with my son?’ she asked him. They live up in the Mansion on the Hill Top. ‘Oh, not since those wretched Scarlett sisters took the place over.
‘What do you mean?’ Anne asked, now feeling somewhat nervous. ‘But this Village isn’t what it used to be’. ‘What are you implying?’ She asked again, this time round she was quite annoyed.
‘I mean, he dresses normally?’ He asked her again. ‘I beg your pardon?’ she asked him quite abruptly, as she was finding him rather indignant. ‘And is your son a proper boy?’ He strangely asked. I’ve just moved in to the property on Cross Keys Crescent with my son David.’ This wasn’t the warmest of welcomes, so she persisted. He grimaced again, and replied ‘Thank you Miss’. ‘You have some beautiful pieces of furniture.’ she told him. The man nodded, and responded with more of a grimace than a smile but replied ‘Good morning’. She entered the shop and quite confidently smiled and said ‘Good morning’. She then noticed the shop owner glaring at her from inside.
She admired a Grandfather clock that stood within the shop, and a beautiful dressing table. Anne looked in the window of the Antiques shop, just about over the shock of seeing those two young lads.
