Children lie. But when one lie threatens Ms Lawson’s integrity as a teacher, can she keep on defending a student as peculiar as Maria Obasi?

LAUREN (24) wakes up with her ex GREG (27) next to her, and a sense of not-again regret. But this time feels different. As she and ELLEN (25) plough on with the minutiae of life (hangovers and low-paid bar jobs), LAUREN worries that she hasn’t been as careful as she might, and that maybe these trysts have forced a different future. The prospect of a child, of pregnancy, of Greg in her life now and forever. The certainty, the surely not, and the friend who makes her feel better – that’s Late.
