I don't think you've any idea what it costs to feed\nyou, my girl.\" Mrs Jackson folded her arms. \"Oh no, you can't keep\non with those two bits of jobs. And there's no use starting to tell\nme you'll leave home or any of that nonsense for you know you know\nfine well you couldn't live in digs on that kind of money.\"\n\nSadie got up. \"I'm going out,\" she said.\n\nShe shut the sitting door behind her and stood in the narrow hall\nwith rage searing inside her. There was a x time when she would have\nbeen tempted to kick the door and shout. Now she took a few deep\nbreaths and said a few thingssome words inside herself.\n\n\"You have your hands full there, Aggie,\" she heard Aunt Kay saying.\n\n\"The job thing is only the least of it,\" said her mother. \"Wait\ntill you hear the rest!\"\n\nSadie did not wait; she left the house. She walked up the street.\nMrs Mullet was at her door, in usual posture, arms folded, one hip\nleaning against the door jamb, her feet enveloped in fur slippers.\nSadie did not look over at her.\n\nShe went along the main road to the cafe where she had taken\nBrede. She had seen little of her friends in the last few weeks.\nThe cafe was quiet. Two boys sat in one corner; Linda sat with Steve\nin another. Sadie went to the counter for a cup of coffee.\n","Type":"Text"}}]
