19 Agnes Day
Agnes Day parked her red sports car by the school gates and stood next to it looking immaculate in a black Gucci suit and sunglasses; even though it was the dullest of October days. On seeing Jack and Ken she waved. The boys eagerly trotted over.
Being the envy of everyone in the school was hard to resist. The thought of squeezing into the tiny cockpit of a sleek low-slung lipstick red sports car was harder still. But the most impossible thing for the boys to resist was the glamorous Agnes Day herself.
