Son of a Serial Killer (20 page)

Edwin stood to the side of the room, remaining calm, serious and calculated the whole time.

‘Well, hello darlings,’ said Harriet, loudly to the crowd in front of her.

She folded her arms across her chest, squeezing her ample breasts together and pretended to shiver, causing a gentle ripple across her assets.

‘It’s cold in here,’ she said, before leaning back on the table. ‘As you all know, I am running for Prime Minister, so I thought I would pop in…’

‘Nearly pop out, you mean,’ said the reporter, Barry Porter, under his breath whilst struggling to tear his eyes away from her cleavage.

‘…and see how everybody is. I could maybe answer a few questions.’

Whilst all the male reporters fought for Maggie’s attention, Bobby and Mayor Thatcher sat behind her looking unimpressed.

‘Mrs Plebb,’ called out a female voice from the back of the group of hacks, ‘what do you feel you have to offer the country as Prime Minister? As I understand, your greatest achievement so far is to have won Big Brother, and even then, there were accusations of fixing,’ called out Maggie.

‘Yes, I remember very well your accusations of my cheating,’ said Harriet. ‘Anyway, to answer your question, Ms Saint…’

‘Mrs,’ interrupted Maggie.

‘Mrs Saint,’ continued Harriet, ‘I make people happy. For example, since becoming secretary of state, I have banned working Friday afternoons and Monday mornings. Tell me, how are your long weekends, Ms Saint?’

‘Very nice, thank you,’ stuttered Maggie.

‘Good,’ stated Harriet. ‘What the people of this country need, is somebody to care for them, somebody to nurture them, to give them what they want.’

Barry Porter stood up like a shot.

‘And what is it that you think we need, Mrs Plebb?’ he asked.

Harriet gave the reporter a huge smile and her eyes twinkled as Barry stared back at her, saliva dripping from his open mouth.

‘Well, obviously…’ she said, sitting up straight then dropping her shoulders and pushing forward her breasts, ‘...you want me.’

Barry resembled a schoolboy looking up at his female teacher he fantasized about every biology class, before slowly lowering himself back down onto his chair, placing his notepad over his groin area and hiding any obvious movement.

‘Right, that’s enough from me today,’ said Harriet. ‘The election is only a few weeks away. Remember to vote for your favourite lady.’

Harriet turned and gave the mayor and Bobby a dismissive look before jumping off the table and strutting out of the room with Edwin, her unanimated husband in tow. The reporters slowly made their way out after them, too, leaving Bobby and the mayor alone at the front of the City Hall media room.

‘This is precisely why I’m putting you in charge of the force, Bobby,’ said the mayor, ‘too many idiots getting into power, people voting for bloody celebrities. If we aren’t careful, this country is going to fall apart.’
