Peter came back to the lounge, sat down.

“Who was at the door?” Pauline asked.

“Walter from next door.”

Pauline shared an anxious look with Percy.

“It’s okay,” Peter said, “I sent him away.”

“That Walter guy gives me the creeps,” Pauline said, “just like William from our time on Wood Avenue.”

“Or Wilfred on Straw Street,” Percy added, “he was even worse.”

“Relax,” Peter said flicking the TV off mute, “we’re living on Stone Square now, a much safer neighbourhood.”
He lifted his feet onto a stool and contentedly scratched his chinny-chin-chin.
