AFTER WORK At an o’clock sharp This Body changes back into the clothing in which they arrived, leaves the building, clambers into the car and drives to the calm intersection where the car parks between a lamp post and a post box. Quite soon This Body sees Other Body approaching from the west along the pavement. Other Body works itself into the car, seats and pecks This Body on the cheek. ‘Had a good day?’ ‘Can’t complain. And you?’ ‘Just fine.’ The car carrying One Body and This Body creeps carefully into the traffic, is whirled away in the flow and disappears.
