A Kind of Loving (51 page)

What it boils down to is you've got to do your best and hope
for the same. Do what you think's right and you'll be doing
like millions of poor sods all over the world are doing. And
when it hits you, if it does, chance, call it what you like, you'll
wonder like all the rest of them because you've always done your
best and you don't deserve a rotten deal. But that's your story.

And now I'm going to do my best and see how it works out.

So endeth the lesson.

It's a chilly night and I shiver a bit as I walk. It'll be Christmas
again in a fortnight.
