‘Mrs Hudson, leave my things alone! Concentrating is hard enough with Dr Watson hovering over me all the time. Just leave everything the way it is!’

I closed my book in anger.

‘We’re only trying to help,’ I said which brought about another verbal assault.

‘You should try less. Where have you put my tobacco?’

‘Is it not in the Persian slipper?’

‘Yes. What have you done with it? It’s not on the mantelpiece.’

‘You left it on your desk.’

‘I would never put it there.’

Now, I was certain. My friend’s casual cocaine use had evolved into inevitable addiction.

.oOOo.

Poor Watson was not planning another trip to the continent for a long while.

Sadly, yes. An addict's personality can undergo quite a shift.

Yeah. Watson gets Holmes back, but Holmes is not quite right yet.

I hope Dr Freud has two couches. I think Dr Watson's rock-steady façade is about to crack.

Holmes would make his friends' lives a misery.
