It had been a busy day for Kieran and he was glad to park his LAndrovER on the street and head in to dinner with Ella. Not much was said at dinner as they both checked their social media feeds. Once he'd finished, Kieran sat down on the settee, whilst Ella washed up. He was just starting to relax when the glare of the flood lights from the nearby football ground lit up the room. "Uh, I've got to get up again and pull the curtains", he thought to himself as he reluctantly pushed himself out of the chair. As he did so, his eyes alighted on something shiny. He picked it up and looked carefully in the powerful light. "How did this pearl get here", he said. "Do you own any pearls?" he called out to Ella. "No I don't; you should know since you never buy me any!", she called from the kitchen. "It must have been that feral cat of yours brought it in", she continued. "It's not feral!", groaned Kieran (they'd had this bit of conversation before!). Just then the blare of the football fans' horns sounded outside as they headed for the match. This drowned out further conversation and Kieran was able to relax / sulk at last!
