got used to this, and it didn’t bother me so much. I was recovering from a broken heart and needed something to help me move on. If it wasn’t love, it was good enough, and when he asked me to marry him I jumped at the chance, knowing that it might be my last. Things started out so well. I was working steadily and Christopher was patiently climbing up the ladder in his department. Then, without any warning, one grey winter afternoon in year five, he just upped and left his desk at the bank, handed in his resignation, and came home and told me he wanted to start an interior design business. He has always loved mixing and matching, and has a real eye for color, texture and shape, but the idea of turning a hobby into a business wasn’t something we had ever discussed.③ I thought the stress of his job was being too much and perhaps he would take a few months off over the spring and summer to relax and get the idea out of system. ④I didn’t believe he could be serious. ⑤But once he had a few clients, he began to draw up plans, ordering catalogues and turning our empty workshop into a kind of makeshift studio with all of his sketches pinned to the wall. After spending a lot of time and money on all of this preparation, and really doing quite a nice job of it, he called each client in turn and apologized, saying he wouldn’t be able to design their living spaces after all.
