A love behind the screen
Joey
by Heather Knight
My husband walked into the room and looked at me.
'Again? Don't you think you're a bit too old for this?' he asked. His eyes twinkled and his lips curved upwards.
'Don't laugh or I'll kill you.'
I turned on the telly. Friends was about to start.
I sat on the sofa wearing my best party dress. I wanted Joey to fall in love with me. What's wrong with that? A girl can dream.
