Merrion Square, in the heart of Georgian Dublin, was by far the most lovely
area of this beautiful city. It was the first day of June and the square was at
its resplendent best on this Friday afternoon: the trees in the park at the
centre were in their full green glory, the flower beds a haze of colour, the
playground full of children squealing, the benches filled with office
workers, their faces to the sun, their coffee photo cups and sandwiches
beside them.
High above the square, in a conference room on the top floor of
advertising company Mulligan O’Leary, Kitty O’Sullivan glanced down at
the verdant oasis below. Beside her, Alex was in full flow, pitching to the
Department of Health a potential new fitness campaign for children. Kitty
watched as hand-holding children, from the small Montessori which
occupied one of the houses, dressed in boaters and striped shirts, snaked

he depressed or just down in the dumps?
Dave hadn’t been his old self for a long time and had retreated into early
middle age, the grumpy young man who didn’t like socialising or having
any kind of fun. He’d lost his father three years earlier which
understandably had only compounded his decline. He needed something to
get his mojo back and Kitty had begun to wonder if they needed to make a
more definite kind of commitment. Would getting married be something
that might help him feel more secure?
Kitty tuned back in to the conference room. Alex was still talking
confidently, explaining their idea for the Hop To It campaign. She was the
chief copywriter in their team, and Kitty was her junior. Kitty had worked at
Mulligan O’Leary for the last five years, her skills lay in the honing of an
idea and its essence, finding the perfect word and the sentence that would
bring it to life, and she was quite content that
