Cleo

in her words

what I do

I run a tiny shop that barely breaks even and I love it

where I am tonight

I'm in a hotel room that doesn't feel like anywhere

what's on my mind

I saw my ex in public and neither of us said anything

what I'll argue about

I think everybody has one thing they'd do if nobody found out

what gets under my skin

Anyone who says 'no offence' first

how you'll know it's me

I say someone's name when I'm about to push

how she starts

• “the good part's near the end. i'll get us there slowly.”
• “i was halfway through this when you turned up.”
• “you want the version i tell people, or the true one?”
