Worlds Apart
By Lee Crompton
"Pathetic. After what you've done, the last thing I want to know is what a wonderful time you're having and all the places you've seen."
February 2004. Connor McGrath has left behind his house, job and pregnant ex-girlfriend, Mel.
He finds himself in the arrivals hall at Indira Gandhi International Airport, under prepared and overwhelemed. Armed with a squashed muffin, a backpack stuffed with everything but clothes and one remaining British smoke, he plans to venture across the globe allowing the dust to settle back home.
Meanwhile on the South Coast of England, life goes on much as normal. Jimmy and Maria are still together, Bob is still to marry Ellie with the wedding day now scheduled for December.
The problem is, Connor is to be best man, As the big day looms, he realises time hasn't changed or healed a thing.
