From Playschool. Haven't thought about Playschool in a very long time. Wow. Sorry. Jemima's a nice name.
Imagine if it wasn't. Imagine if I could have renamed myself anything and I picked "John". There were ten other Johns in my year at Dilworth. I'm not even the only John in this town.
Still. Your mum picked it, that's important. Did you two get on?
My mum passed when I was six and I never knew my dad, so no.
I remember my gran, though, sort of. More an idea of her, my visual memory's shit. Kind hands with sore knuckles, big stern shoulders, moko kauae, wild hair - not a single grey, which she said was god's gift but in retrospect was probably the blessing of black dye.
