"His friends'll look after him." "What you on?" "Cass sent me a tab." "She misses you, right?" "I don't know what I'm supposed to do." "I go to see him." "I went to see him." "Well, I suppose you deserve some fun." "Those guys just like my tits." "Oh." "Sweet." "You're avoiding me." " You make me think about him." " You're not the only one, Chelle." "I was there every day, trying to get him to say something." "And everybody really, really fucked up and I'm just trying to... to..." "And nobody comes but me, cos it's so terrible." "You should have fucking helped me." "All right!" "When it happened before the bus he was on the phone and he said something." "I don't think he remembers." " But he said..." " Chelle."

"I got lucky, didn't I?" "You didn't turn out like the fucking ASBO Army out there." "No, Dad." "I feel like taking some fucking credit for it." "OK?" "I'm never gonna be a builder, Dad." "You'll understand this one day, kid." "You're everything I've got to show for my life." "And I'm not ready for you to go, because I fucking love you too much." "I'm an idiot, I know." "I love you, too, Dad." "So if you're not coming building, back to college." "Give me the last year." "And then it's game on." "All right?" "All right." "Taz." "On your bed." "At least the sodding dog does what he's told." "I can register if I write my name." "It's more than that, Tony." "It's not just signing your name." "Then fucking help me!" "Or are you going to be a complete fucking arse-wit" " like everyone fucking else I know?" " Whoa!" "He speaks." "You gotta slow it down." "Stop trying to write." "It's just a shape your hand makes."
