麻豆约拍

The boiler's broken so it's freezing.

Jak has found a soulmate in Ryan-the-heating-engineer (or Brian-the-plumber) who is making the job last days. Skye can't leave Dexter at home because Ryan/Brian keeps leaving the door open and she's worried Dex will run down the street and get in some randomer's car. It's happened before.

Skye is used to having Dexter in tow, but now she wants to play guitar with Scarlett. Just the two of them.

Amanda Whittington's heart-breakingly brave, funny and beautiful story exploring the issue of neglect.

Skye ..... Sydney Wade
Jak ..... Una McNulty
Dexter ..... Alfie Johnson-McCann
Scarlett ..... Scarlett Courtney
Ryan ..... Adam Courting
Aiden ..... Will Kirk
