“Ya dirty dog.”
That was Ed’s response when Andy told Ed about his growing closeness to Charlotte. They were out with their common friend Michael having a few pints in The Cavern of all places.
“Can ya not find your own woman?”
“Well done Andy,” Michael interjected with a wide smile.
Fortunately, Ed wasn’t too concerned either. He just liked winding up his friend.
“Well, I hope ya treat her right. I was always kinda fond of her. But since, there’s a baby on the way I’ll have to let it go.
That was Ed’s way of telling us that he was about to become a father, again.
Then it was back to the serious business of drinking. Andy was glad that he had managed to clear things up with Ed. He had been feeling a bit guilty about going after a mates ex, even if it was years ago.
He was quite intoxicated by the time he got back to his bed. Charlotte said that she could make it down to Mullingar the following Friday and that maybe they could go for dinner or something.
He now sent a text back that, that would be an excellent idea and that he would definitely be free.
