Neighbours

We've been to the pub together and talked about all sorts of stuff, but mostly about everything that has been going on since we last saw each other. 
We're good again. We hugged (illegally). 
I told her honestly that I'm not going to alter her clothes, and returned them to her unaltered.
I told her, equally honestly, that I have been worried sick about her. It seems that there remain a few loose ends with the boyfriend, and I suggested ways to swiftly cauterise them. 
She was visibly shocked by the suggestions I made and I had to explain that since he had never been truthful with her . . .
Bless her, she was brought up so nicely.
