Summary
“Look at this one - Furnished flat to rent in Victorian conversion. 2 beds 1 bath. Quiet street in Vauxhall. Available immediately. Oh wow, the rent’s really reasonable too. I wonder what the catch is?”
“There's the catch.” Nick leaned across the table and stabbed at the paper with his index finger. He’d read that listing on the tube earlier. “Professional couples only.”
“For fucks sake, why?!” Charlie groaned loudly, slumping back onto the cafe table in despair. “Why does this keep happening to me?!”
“Hey now, it can’t be that bad? Don't you have any homeless friends you can pretend to be in a couple with? I'm sure someone would…. What? Why are you looking at me like that?”
