Potential
John tried to ignore the constant clacking to his right, and told himself that walking really was effective therapy for phantom pain.
He ran his calculations one last time. He would never be able to afford lodging in London for more than two months. But moving somewhere quieter…
He could advertise, of course. But the prospect of a series of mind-numbing interviews with potential flatmates - that was almost worse than leaving London.
And then there was his mother’s voice in his ear, reminding him that adverts might attract criminals and psychopaths - Far too dangerous, John!
An advert it was, then.
“John! John Watson!”
