The Flatshare

‘Oh, Martin probably thinks I’m too big,’ I say, waving an arm. ‘I’ll just be there to Kathperone.’ ‘Will I meet this Martin we like so much? And you’ll be there to what?’ ‘Kathperone. Sorry, that’s Rachel’s word for all the Katherin-chaperoning I have to do. And yeah, Martin will be coordinating the whole thing. He’ll be especially insufferable, because he’ll be in charge.’ ‘Excellent,’ Leon says. ‘I can spend my posing time plotting his downfall.’
