Me: Guess what?
Nell: I don’t do Guessing.
Me: Harriet is taking me spying tonight.
Nell: I beg your pardon?
Me: Harriet says I can join her on a mission.
Nell: I don’t believe you.
Me: It’s true.
Nell: You’re a terrible spy.
Me: That’s a little unkind.
Nell: There’s more to this than you’re telling me.
Me: Fine. The spying might be going on from my bedroom window.
Nell: The bedroom where you sleep?
Me: Yes.
Nell: Where you most probably will be asleep as it’s nighttime?
Me: I’m going to try and stay awake.
Nell: I presume Harriet told you that you could spy from your bed?
Me: Yes. She said I can even lie down.
Nell: And all the lights will be out?
Me: Of course. Although we may have a few candles.
Nell: I’m guessing the spying is on Lady Anwen at the bus stop?
Me: You said you didn’t do Guessing.
Nell: I’m making an exception,
Me: You’re right. We’ve got a special camera which is going to get us a proper photo of Lady Anwen’s nasty side.
Nell: What do you mean?
Me: Harriet says Sally thinks Lady Anwen has a dangerously nasty side at night.
Nell: She has a nasty side in the day.
Me: This one is really scary.
Nell: You don’t like scary.
Me: That’s why I’m doing the spying from my bed.
Nell: Under the covers?
Me: Yes.
Nell: With David lying next to you?
Me: Yes, and Harriet with the camera at the window.
Nell: You’re already feeling a little scared, aren’t you?
Me: I don’t like the idea of an even nastier Lady Anwen.
Nell: Everything will be fine. Harriet has it all under control and you can cuddle David. He’ll be feeling scared, too.
Me: Yes. Sorry.
