.oOOo.
Our first weeks of sharing lodgings were congenial as Holmes and I were mindful of each other’s privacy. However, it did not last.
Holmes began to run experiments whose explosions completely undid my nerves.
He would invite me for activities impossible for me to do.
He smoked. A lot.
His violin playing alone set my convalescence back for months.
I was about to give him what for when our landlady entered and interrupted. I snapped.
‘NO, MRS HUDSON, I DO NOT WANT A CUP OF TEA!’
It was then that I realised I had become the very worst tenant in London.
