Faith 
Chapter 1



I reached out my hand to pick up the last pair of black cashmere gloves just as I got to them another hand had 
also took hold of the pair I turned my head to look at the person as we both laughed and let go
�You take them� the young handsome gentlemen said I nodded my head
�No you� I said
�Tell you what you take one glove I�ll take the other� he said making me laugh
�What�s point in having one glove each� I asked as he handed over some money to the till operator 
�They�ll be a pair one day� he said and walked off strange man I thought shrugging to myself as I walked out of 
the store and down the street a bit I spotted the outside Ice Rink I haven�t been Ice skating in years I 
thought as the excitement of ice skating when I was a child filled my head and before I knew it I was tying 
up the laces on a pair of skates as I slide out onto the ice I remembered how easy it was too slip over I practised 
for a bit going around holding slightly onto the edges before gaining confidence and skating around in the middle 
�Ahh we meet again� the familiar male�s voice I heard not so long ago said I turned to where I'd heard 
his voice
�So we do� I smiled
�Didn�t think it would be this soon� he said 
�Or me� I replied my eye catching the giant clock near Ice Rink 
�I�m sorry I have to leave nice seeing you again� I called and went to skate off loosing my balance I fell 
to the ground 
�Are you ok� he said helping me up 
�Yes I�m fine� I replied checking my elbow that seemed to hurt the most 
�You should be careful on here come on lets get you cleaned up� he said 
�Ha, ha very funny� I said sarcastically as he took me away to the first aid centre to clean up the wound to my elbow 
I winced and went to pull away as he wiped an anti-septic wipe over it
�How can I clean it if you pull away� he asked
�It hurts� I complained as I let him finish by sticking a plaster over it 
�I really must go now though I�m late home already� I said going to get up
�Wait I don�t even know your name can I call you sometime� he asked and I laughed 
�Tell you wait you write your name and number down on this five pound note� I said
�On a five pound note?� he asked and I nodded handing it to him and a pen
�Ok� he said writing his name and number down and handing it back I looked at itbefore going into the 
Kiosk next to us and buying a newspaper with it 
�Hey how are you supposed to call me if you do that?�asked as I signalled for a taxi 
�Well like that glove if we�re meant to be the five pound note will come back to me and I�ll call you, you�ll 
just have to wait� I said getting into the taxi 
�Namesby-the-way� I said closing the door as the driver pulled away�
