Sarah's and Zelda's holiday in Torremolinos seems to be heading into trouble:
Later in the afternoon as they lay
on sunbeds on the beach, Zelda told Sarah, "That guy is beginning to creep
me out."
"Jason?"
"Yeah. He's still hanging around. I'm sure if there was another sunbed near us
he'd be on it instead of at the bar."
She was referring to the bar across the road from the beach where the
man was drinking a beer.
"I know
what you mean. D'you reckon he's
stalking us?"
"Could
be. I know he's in the next door
apartment but even when we've crept out and avoided passing that side of the
building he still turns up."
"He does,
doesn't he? Are you thinking what I'm
thinking?" The women exchanged a
look. "No, that's too far
fetched. We're not in a spy film."
Zelda
laughed. "Shades of James
Bond. No, he looks more like an English
version of the Pink Panther."
"Zel, I
don't want to be a scaredy cat, but he does make me nervous. I'd suggest we check our bags but if he's
looking he'll see."
Her friend
looked at her closely. "You're
serious, aren't you?"
"Wouldn't
you be? Actually, after all that's
happened and the reason why we're here, you should be worried too."
"True. Sorry, but an unexpected free holiday has
gone to my head. Look, I'll go to the
bar and get a couple of beers. And get
chatting to him. You check our
bags."
