As I arrive home that afternoon, I feel weary and miserable.

Suddenly, triple-A rated jobs in banking and Harrods with Luke Brandon seem miles away. Real life isn't swarming round Knightsbridge in a taxi, choosing £1,000 suitcases, is it? This is real life. Home to a tiny flat which still smells of curry, and a pile of nasty letters

from the bank, and no idea what to do about them.

I put my key in the lock, and as I open the door, I hear Suze cry, ,Bex? Is that you?'

'Yes!' I say, trying to sound cheerful. 'Where are you?'

'Here,' she says, appearing at the door of my bedroom.

Her face is all pink, and there's a shine in her eyes. 'Guess what! I've got a surprise for you!'

'What is it?' I say, putting down my briefcase. To be honest, I m not m the mood for one of Suze s surprises.

She'll just have moved my bed to a different place, or something. And all I want is to sit down and have a cup of tea and something to eat. I never did get any lunch.

'Come and see. No... no, shut your eyes, first. I'll lead yon.'

'OK,' I say reluctantly. I close my eyes and allow her to take my hand. We start to walk along the corridor and of course, as we near my bedroom door, I start feeling a little tingle of anticipation in spite of myself. I always fall for things like this.

'Dadaaa! You can look now!'

I open my eyes and look dazedly around my room, wondering what mad thing Suze has done now. At 172

least she hasn't painted the walls or touched the curtains, and my computer's safely switched off. So what on earth can she have.
