[00:16.14]We slept in this morning and she had to get ready in a hurry
[00:19.27]
[00:20.27]No time for her usual attention to detail
[00:22.18]
[00:23.54]And she ran out the door
[00:24.97]Slamming it behind her
[00:25.73]
[00:26.26]Leaving her keys swinging and janglin
[00:27.76]
[00:31.49]Stayed in bed until I heard the downstairs door shut
[00:34.94]Then peeked through the blinds and as soon as she was out of sight
[00:39.40]I went for the keys  she never tried to make a secret of the box or the
[00:45.35]It was locked or even where she kept it
[00:48.12]
[00:49.84]But as I said at the time
[00:51.22]
[00:51.94]If youve nothing to hide  why hide it
[00:54.87]
[00:59.53]Its one of those wee red cashbox things
[01:01.51]
[01:03.10]And she keeps it in a drawer by the bed
[01:05.23]Under some pictures and books
[01:06.15]
[01:08.15]Every key she has is on the same keyring
[01:09.96]
[01:11.20]It took me a while to find the right o
[01:13.17]
[01:16.27]Dont know  I suppose Ive had my doubts for a while
[01:19.02]Theres been hushed phone-calls virtually every night
[01:21.33]
[01:22.12]Her friends stop talking when I come in the room
[01:24.67]And they look at each other
[01:26.01]
[01:26.87]And I Know  its just a feeling  anyway
[01:29.22]
[01:34.25]I eventually found the right key and it fitted perfectly in
[01:40.11]
[01:40.86]I put the box on top of the bed and opened it up
[01:44.41]
[01:58.89]There were these pictures of friends
[02:00.22]
[02:00.90]And exs  letters  postcards  doodles  nothing bad
[02:07.31]
[02:11.46]And then I found some sort of sex diary
[02:14.02]
[02:16.93]And I went to the latest entry
[02:21.00]It explicity detailed a recent a
[02:22.63]Ure up the park with a boy she said she had forgotten about
[02:27.24]
[02:37.02]And it got worse as it went on
[02:38.88]
[02:40.28]The dates never made sense
[02:41.57]
[02:43.28]There were people I had never even heard of
[02:45.35]
[02:47.31]Eventually I had to stop reading it
[02:49.33]Because I started to feel sick
[02:50.85]
[02:52.88]So I put everything but the way I found it
[02:54.95]
[02:56.87]Shut the drawer and phoned you
[02:59.97]
[03:05.34]See  I dont know what to do
[03:06.67]
[03:08.06]I keep having fantasies about leaving
[03:09.86]
[03:11.43]Her dictaphone under the pillow
[03:12.91]
[03:14.90]Or following her when she goes to work
[03:17.04]
[03:18.49]I've been lying about where Im going
[03:19.76]
[03:20.63]Just in case I can bump into her
