The Turning Tide
“Erykah worked a quick crossword and watched them over the edge of the paper. They self-consciously adjusted their trousers and caps, bobbing their heads to music played from one of their phones and aping the street style that so many middle-class kids aspired to.
Class was a funny thing. Fake it til you make it, Grayson used to say. It was one of his favourite mottos. But no matter how well or how long she passed, there were some things that could never be faked.
It reminded her of the ...first and only time she went to Henley Royal Regatta as a spectator, the summer before. Nicole was keen to see what ‘a real English summer season’ was like. So Erykah got tickets to one of the enclosures from a Steward.
She had been up and down that piece of water loads of times for the women’s regatta and the winter head. Down there, it was just a stretch of river, no more intimidating than any other race. Less than most, even.MoreLess
