Friday 5th November

It just occurred to me, when I wrote today’s date: Bonfire Night! That’s why Lauren can’t come tonight - because she’s probably going to the bonfire and fireworks that they always have down at the community centre on the Ratcliffe estate. Why didn’t she just say so? Am I being overly paranoid or was she keeping quiet because she doesn’t want me turning up? I know it’s for Ratcliffe estate residents only but surely I could go. Imean Grumps still lives there and he could take me. When I suggested this to Mum, though, she said there was no way I was going out because, if I was too ill to go to school, I was too ill to go to a bonfire party.

Spencer and I watched the fireworks going off randomly all over the city from his bedroom window. I tried not to think about Lauren having a good time with Stacy back home on the estate. Funny how I still think of the estate as home. Maybe Sophie was right and you can never take the estate out of the girl.

When I got into bed I checked my phone and there was a message from Lauren. It said: Meet me tomoz 12. 30 outside Harvey Nicks.

We don’t usually go there - it’s in the oh so posh Cabot Circus and we usually go to The Galleries. Not that it matters. I’m just happy I’m finally going to get to spend the day with Lauren without Stacey getting in the way. It’ll be just like old times.
