‘She spoke to the people at the Kudu Stall. But it sounds like it wasn’t much help.’
‘Of course we want a good story, but I do hope she doesn’t end up in trouble again. Don’t think I could bear another kidnapping or coma.’
I hoped the same, but I also wanted Jessie to find out what happened. Slimkat’s eyes might haunt me for ever if she didn’t. I gave Hattie her tea and offered her a rusk.
‘No thanks,’ she said. ‘It hasn’t been proven yet, has it, that Slimkat was poisoned?’
‘No results on the sauce bottle yet,’ I said. ‘Well, nothing official anyway.’
‘Do you know something unofficial?’ asked Hattie. ‘You or Jessie, through one of your saucy sources?’ She laughed at her own joke.
I shook my head and settled back down at my desk. I thought I’d better write a bit more to Miss Helpme. She might not have found the chain letter idea that funny.
It may be true that you cannot find everything you want in one person. But it’s also true that your most important needs must be met by yourself.
If your boyfriend does not like the chain-letter plan, and does not want to be faithful to you, you may find you can meet your needs better without him. It is more lonely to be with someone who cannot love you right, than to be on your own.
I though about giving her a cold picnic recipe, but instead gave her Annemarie’s amazing brandy tart recipe, which should be eaten hot and at home. I wondered again what I should cook for Henk that night.
