EVERYONE ELSE S GIRL

Exactly ten days after I''d come back to care for my dad, it occurred to me that I had turned into a housewife. Not just any housewife. My mother. Kill me now... Meredith does things for other people. She irons clothes for her boyfriend, she attends her ex-best friend''s horrendous hen party for her brother (who''s about to marry the girl) and she moves back to her parents'' house to look after her dad when his leg is broken. She''s a good girl and that matters. But when she gets back home, all is not as Meredith remembered. Especially Scott, that geeky teenager from her old class at school. He''s definitely different now. And so, it seems, is she. One by one, her family and old friends start to tell her some home truths and Meredith begins to realise she''s not so perfect after all. Maybe it is time she stopped being everyone else''s girl and started living for herself...
