Breathing in...
...letting go.
Planning... Let go.
Worrying... Let go.
Three days ago I was like, 'Get me out of here.'
A retreat, otherwise known as 'delaying the inevitable'.
Which is basically that
everything had been going to shit for...
Sorry.
Open your heart to life?
Eh, I'll settle for a double espresso.
Oh, hell.
Nathan.
Did you know we teach a walking meditation?
No. Anton, I did not. Appreciate the information.
Well, there's a couple of sessions this arvo.
Just turn up.
No judgement.
As in literally, no judgement.
On the other hand...
..when was the last time you had a free holiday?
So...
here I am.
Slow right down.
Follow your breath.
Catch your thoughts
and calm the monkey mind.
And then one breath later...
more self-criticism.
Hey, at least I'm noticing it.
Oh, could that be the point?
Beautiful.
You're an inspiration.
Very Zen.
A couple of days here, might just be getting the hang of it.
I've just arrived and I'm all...
Mind is like a washing machine.
Overdue my tune-up.
Ah.
I can highly recommend starting with the breathing class.
I thought for a moment there
you were going to recommend a good vintage.
I...
I'm Sylvia.
Nathan.
It's nice to meet you.
Oh, this is my third time here.
It's head and shoulders above the rest.
It's all very new to me.
Well, you've chosen the right place.
And whatever you're doing, Nathan, it is working.
So far, so good.
Being in the moment.
Acceptance opens up possibilities.
Avoidance closes them down.
- Hello. - Oh!
- Oh, sorry. - Oh, I was miles away.
Just checking if you need anything.
If Dave needs anything?
Dave?
Ah well, Dave's back at work today.
No, how can he work?
He's supervising Paddo, 'Just a half-day to start.'
I thought the doctor said rest?
Well no, he had a rest. Yesterday.
I mean, he's got one wrist intact, who needs two?
Dave I can...
Got it.
I'm alright, I'm alright.
It's OK.
I'm alright.
I could be forgiven for wondering
why I rushed back up here.
You know there's special wrist braces
for motocross riders?
I mean, even teenagers wear them apparently.
- Oh, but not Dave.
That's men for you, I guess.
I'm sure he appreciates you being back. He missed you.
Has he? I'm not so sure.
Do you want that?
Nah.
Why on earth I stored all this stuff who would know.
As you can see I'm in a bit of a mood.
Time for a walk, if you feel like it?
I just want to get rid of all this stuff.
OK well, don't toss these.
Look, sourdough. Fresh from the oven.
- Oh, thank you. - Sure you don't need a hand?
- No, I'm fine. - OK.
Begin to observe the breath.
And let go of control.
And this gal arrived all stressed out and shellshocked.
And then there was the breathing class.
The magic words,
'For the next hour you'll be lying down.'
All exercise should be taken prone.
- Whatever way that works. - You're a sporty spice.
I'm not.
You're in good shape, Nathan.
I'm inspired.
Hmm.
Thanks.
We should all play more, don't you think?
I always want to go on the swing when I'm pushing Eddie.
That's what this place is missing, guest swings.
- Yes. - Ah, here he is.
- Anton. - Sylvia.
Lovely to have you back.
Is there anything I can do for you?
Swings.
We think this place would benefit
from some swings.
And by that I mean actual swings.
With silken ropes for you, Madame.
Some of these places can be very earnest but...
- ..Anton, he's really lovely. - Yeah.
Should we have some lunch together?
Throw ourselves on the chickpea salad,
drool over the mashed squash.
Get down and dirty in the quinoa.
Yeah, yeah, why not?
You have a contagious laugh.
And, um,
in answer to your question
I am too.
- Divorced. - Oh.
Dating and determined to meet the right bloke.
I should grab your number before we leave.
Yeah, sure.
May I ask you something?
- Open book. - Are you...
Is this...
..are you hitting on me?
No. Sorry.
Of course I am.
Carpe diem. We might just click.
Effortless breathing.
One step at a time.
And when in doubt, exhale.
I'm alright.
Back in a tick.
I'll just wait here.
- Hi. - Hey, how'd you go?
Yeah, no swelling.
Cast's a bit itchy but that's about it.
It's good to get the job done.
Yeah well, I thought we'd have
a nice sit down lunch for a change.
Tessa's brought some lovely rolls.
Uh, I might pack them up and take them, if that's OK?
Oh.
Paddo's going for a ride and I said I'd go watch.
Not to get back on the horse
but to think about what it would be like
to get back on the horse.
Or you could try a different horse.
Just checking to see if...
Ah, I'll leave you to it.
- Nice one. - Hang on.
- Can I do that? - No.
It's no big deal. It's fine.
- Ruby was crying at school. - As if.
Hey, Ruby.
- Check this out. - Yeah.
- Bye, Ruby. - See ya.
- Can we get out of here? - Are they your new friends?
What are their names?
They're called The Great Unwoke.
- Oh, that's awful. - It's because of Dad.
Your dad's called three times to say he's sorry.
Until he said it was crap
everyone really liked my artwork.
But now because of what he said...
Let's just stop the blame.
They're going,
'It's just a painting with dog turds
and your dad thinks you're crap,'
which he actually said.
Do you remember what Charles told you?
Yeah well, he wasn't there when they were bullying me.
That's true. And this is horrible.
But what if we look at it from another angle?
Like what?
I'm trying to help you.
Go on.
You made a controversial work and you wanted a reaction
and that's what happened.
Yeah, but not like this.
No, not like this.
It's all because of Dad, not me.
You cried at something your dad said
but your dad didn't make you cry.
I think that's just semantics.
I'm sorry?
It's a word. Get over it.
Time to go.
When we get home I need to go online
and see what the people who love me are saying.
When we get home I need to have some ice cream.
Hey.
You're early.
Yeah, I thought we should talk.
I've been saying that for days.
Where are the kids?
I'm trying to keep them out the back.
I guess you haven't seen this.
Who does this?
Bloody hell, where do these dickheads spring up from?
At least that's something we agree on.
I should call Mum.
Plus she should know about...
Whatever.
You mean my decision.
Your decision, yes.
Are you also gonna tell your mother
you're refusing to see a counsellor?
That is full on, Cass? I've just walked in.
Give me a break.
I need to have some time online.
How about we give Mum a call?
Let me speak to her first, OK?
Eh...
Yes, sweetheart, but I can understand Cassie.
I mean, the physical pressure of IVF
let alone the emotional upheaval...
Sure.
- And now she wants to draw a line in the sand.
Yeah. I...
Just wanted you to know.
Well, all I can say is lots of love to you both.
And give Cassie a big hug.
It can't have been an easy decision.
How's Dad?
- Well, you know your dad, cracking hardy.
I'll give him a call.
I'll, um, put you onto Rubes.
Hey.
It's Mum.
Thanks.
Hey, Mum.
Hello, sweetheart.
Ben told me someone made a gif of you with Dad's words.
Totally lame one.
Yeah, but it still hurts, right?
A bit.
I can come straight back down if you need me.
Oh, no.
You be there with Dad.
How about we do one of our lists?
OK.
Right. Ready?
OK, so we're gonna ignore what the kids at school said.
Not buy into it.
And how about you spend the weekend
doing some of your other interests?
Like swimming practise or sketching.
Maybe go to the library, get some new novels?
How's the list looking?
Good.
And let's deprive those creeps of oxygen.
No going online until I come back down, alright?
- OK. - Promise?
Promise.
And how about a nice get well card for your dad?
He feels so bad about what he said.
OK.
Oh.
You start.
All I know is I still want us to have children.
Nothing has changed for me.
You mean, you want to have your own children.
We need to stay positive.
What?
Every time I felt life inside me and felt it die...
I know.
Pumping hormones
and clinging to ever decreasing odds and
I have run out of hope.
Let me hope for both of us.
Just tell me what you need.
To at least discuss adoption.
- Look... - Just to discuss it.
That's what I need.
Let's just think about this later down the track.
Ben... You're not listening.
There may be no later down the track.
What was that dog's name again?
- The one that got run over? - Wusty.
Wusty.
Maybe we can go together to see a counsellor.
How is a complete stranger supposed to help us?
Well, we're not getting anywhere on our own, Ben.
You've changed your password and I need the new one.
No you don't.
- No computers, Ruby. - I'm locked out.
Listen, Ruby.
I have to go online.
Listen, you've already had a rotten day.
Don't make it any worse.
I have to go online to do my homework.
And scan this card for Dad.
You'll get in trouble from Mum. She wants me to.
Ruby.
- Ruby. Ruby, stop. - Ruby...
- Ruby! - Stop, stop.
Where you going, sweetie?
I don't know.
Oh, honey.
Look...
I'll take a photo of the card
and we'll get it off to your dad, OK?
Come back inside.
No one's going online, not even us.
Fine.
- It's OK.
Ah, good on ya, Rubes.
I sent her a thanks message.
- Hm. - We're back on track.
Well, you know Ruby,
she gets there in her own time.
Yeah, crisis averted.
Well, bon appetit, as they say in Wales.
- Lemme just cut that steak... - No, it's OK.
- Looks wonderful. - Yeah, but...
I'm fine.
OK.
With wind chills reaching
as low as -76 degrees Fahrenheit,
Emperors huddle together to preserve warmth.
Taking turns to move into
the group's relatively toasty interior.
Then moving back to the perimeter.
So others can enjoy protection from the icy elements.
First, tell the truth to yourself.
OK.
Imagine your six-year-old self
sitting with you.
And what would they want you to do right now?
Good morning.
Deep in thought?
Yeah, just the er...
Dusting out the cobwebs.
The six-year-old self exercise.
Indeed.
I, ah,
I hope I didn't overshare at dinner last night.
It was interesting.
You're interesting.
I just wasn't sure if you...
I'm not sure how to put this.
What would you say if you did?
You did leave rather suddenly.
You're a very attractive woman.
Very. And I've really enjoyed your company.
But in case you...
I'm just not looking for anyone right now, romantically.
My priority should be Eddie and...
..I'm not ready to be dating anyone.
Anyone.
And I'm OK with that.
Good for your gorgeous boy.
Hey.
Aw, he really is.
But monastic for you.
It's a choice I've made without quite realising.
Until now.
Well, even more reason to change to a job you actually enjoy.
Easier said than done.
Life can be very lonely.
Yeah but you don't deserve to be lonely.
There'll be someone out there for you.
Come on. Why wouldn't there be?
Guess I should probably consult my six-year-old self.
She was a pretty wise cookie.
I bet she was.
Eugh!
Do you know Grandma's password?
Mum's? Of course.
Why don't you just use hers?
Because this isn't her computer.
What do you mean?
She left it here, I saw.
- Keep an eye out for Cassie. - I will.
That's not fair.
Carbo's here, he's gonna teach us some magic!
Come on, please.
Do not disturb.
And when you put the coin in your pocket
you make the audience look somewhere else.
Will I show Ben and Cassie?
I just want you to try...
They're busy. Keep practising.
OK.
Why're you making such a big deal of this?
Fine, Ben. I'll go by myself.
Can't we just enjoy Carbo being here?
Keep looking me in the eye.
You don't want to rush it.
Then you divert my attention...
Look, I said I'd go so I'm going, alright?
- Hello, Carbo. - Rubes.
Rubes, watch me.
Coin, and what's over there?
Keep practising.
OK.
I'm doing my best painting ever.
Is that right?
Hey, um, wanna take me to the art market tomorrow?
An exclusive launch for Get Carbonated.
Well if it's OK with Ben and Cassie.
They're going to a doctor's appointment.
They'll need someone to mind us.
Don't mention the painting.
- I'm saving it for your fans. - Ah, gotcha.
They'll love it.
Hey, have you ever thought of doing ventriloquism?
- It's seriously coming back. - Really?
- Yes. - Wow.
- Dave? - Out here.
Do you mind turning out the kitchen light?
Uh, you can join us if you want.
Hey, mate. You gotta keep looking up.
International Space Station's due soon.
Is it?
Hang on a tick.
No point in making things hard...
..when they can be easy.
Ah, there you go.
The Milky Way.
Yeah well, that's what your mob call it.
You know what us blackfellas call it?
No, I should know.
The Great Emu.
But don't look at the stars.
It's the dark spaces in between them.
Right.
- You see the southern cross? - Yep.
There's a dark spot just underneath it.
That's the head.
And then the neck goes through the two pointers
and the body goes right across.
And right now the brightest part is underneath its legs.
When we see it like this
that's when we go and get the emu eggs.
And some months it's running,
sometimes you can't even see the legs.
The harder you look the more you see.
Only if you know what you're looking for.
Like most things, eh.
It's none of my business,
but if you're pleased Julie's back,
you should, you should say it.
You know, if she wasn't here I'd have to manage.
It's just the way it'd be.
Ah, Zen man.
All that for the weekend?
You're a heavy traveller, Sylvia.
Just my laptop and that's it.
I'm glad you enjoyed it here, Nathan.
Who could beat walking on hot coals
and sleeping on a bed of nails?
Well, Jeremy enjoyed meeting you.
Might be more hot coals sooner than you think.
So that's his bag
and you two are...
I had a kick in the shin from a certain six-year-old.
Mr. Right's been here all along.
I've just been so busy turbo flirting...
It's too much.
Sorry. Again.
Actually, it was something that I'd been doing myself
and I hadn't realised so...
Thank you.
All for the good.
Congratulations.
- Phone's back on. - Alright.
One, two, three.
This is Dave Rafter, leave a message.
Dad, thank you so much for the stay, it was great.
But I'm gonna have to head straight back.
The building crisis has come to a head
so please tell Mum I will call her later.
OK, Cheers. Bye.
So here goes.
Heading back to face the music.
Let's see if anything I learnt back there's rubbed off.
About six months after we were married
All of our focus became about having children.
Not all of it.
After the first six months it did.
We both said that we'd everything we could
to have a baby.
A family of our own.
I always said I might have problems.
Why did you think that?
Cassie thought it might be psychological.
Because?
In my family...
You don't have to go there.
I had controlling parents.
Who manipulated me into a marriage
to a controlling husband.
It was a difficult time.
I had to divorce him
to come down from Queensland to finish my degree.
My, my first round of IVF failed with him.
The, erm...
The suffocation, I thought.
That's not how it is with us.
It's what it feels like now.
It's like I'm the subject
of some huge mathematical problem
that fills a whiteboard just waiting to be solved.
I'm the obstacle.
I don't think Ben has any idea how unhappy I am.
OK.
It does seem that Ben's hearing some of this for the first time.
So let me ask you first, Cassie,
how responsible you feel for where you both are now?
OK, let's Get Carbonated.
It's an arty-farty day for us again here
and we're with Ruby Rafter
ready to unveil her latest opus,
here at the salon of Mr. Charles Whiteman.
Over to you, Rubes.
I just want you to know
that every one of the words
you'll see on my painting
is what trolls out there
have been saying about me.
But what they don't get
is there are millions of kids around the world right now
making a difference.
You know who you are.
Demanding the adults in charge act for change
or step aside for us.
Hope you guys are ready.
And you trolls should be ashamed.
Crikey!
- OK, we've cut. - Oh, my dear aunt.
My dear.
All said about me online.
Lots of artists paint with words.
Christopher Wool comes to mind.
'Sell the house. Sell the car. Sell the kids.'
Sell the kids is pretty subversive.
I think you've taken the cake.
Rubes, what have ya done?
Can you check if we're already viral?
Er...
Oh, sh...
I'm hanging up now.
No comment. No comment.
No comment.
What's going on?
It's just some trashy tabloid journalist implying that Ruby...
Carbo, put Ruby on the phone.
She's back at Ben and Cass', Mrs Rafter.
Now you listen to me.
- I didn't know what the painting was.
On my Yaya's grave.
Well, why didn't you ask to see it
before you revealed it to the world?
She wouldn't show it to me.
How old are you, Carbo?
She hoodwinked me.
Grow up!
Hope you guys are ready.
And you trolls should be ashamed.
- Bloody hell.
Did she paint this?
She was just copying what the trolls said.
It gets worse and worse.
It was why the journalist was calling.
'Are we aware of the obscenities in our daughter's latest work?'
Perish the thought they focus on the bullying.
If this has been going on for days, why didn't you tell me?
Well, you haven't been very easy to talk to, Dave.
There's a problem with our daughter
and you keep me outta the loop?
Yeah, well, I thought I had it under control.
And Ruby seemed fine.
I could see something like this coming a mile off.
Oh, well if you could see it coming a mile off
why didn't you do something about it?
Oh, this is bad.
Look, the quickest way to return to normality
is I bring Ruby back here.
She needs her dad.
She needs stability, she needs her friends.
You'd be coming too?
Well, obviously.
Well, she should come home sure, great
but what does that mean for you and me?
I thought you'd be happy.
You don't have to come home if you don't want to.
- Ruby needs me, Dave. - Well, she needed me too
but you took her to the city.
She'd be safe here with me.
You stay there longer if you have to.
God, you're doing my head in.
Don't you think you've been doing mine in for weeks?
Think about it.
There's no way I won't be here for Ruby.
So you either both stay there or you both come back.
And what does that mean for us?
Tessa. You ready for that walk?
You know, at first I thought he was just embarrassed
that he'd had the accident.
Trying to pretend that he didn't need my help.
But then I started thinking, is he,
is he trying to drive me away?
I'm sure that's not the case.
No, what it is is he's testing me.
He doesn't want me at back here out of duty or pity.
And I'd feel exactly the same, you know?
He needs me to sort out this...
This gremlin inside.
Not just paper over the cracks.
And we both know what that might lead to.
Oh Julie, OK.
You're not gonna like this.
But it just makes me so furious.
What?
You're gonna risk all that love.
You know, that deep love
built on over all these years that people would kill to have
and you might just turn your back on.
OK, don't lecture me, Tess.
Well, I'm not just gonna tell you what you want to hear.
Well, I'm not asking you to.
OK, fine. Well, one night when you were away
I watched TV with Dave.
Now, we shared a bottle of wine.
Well, good.
You don't even care that I might've done something.
I know you wouldn't.
Well if Dave had asked, who knows.
Well, he wouldn't.
Well, thanks very much.
No, you know what I mean.
He wouldn't risk our marriage like that.
If you are, why wouldn't he?
I mean, he's just a man he's not a saint.
He's not gonna stick around forever.
Yeah, OK, that's enough.
Think about it.
You get so wrapped up with what's wrong in your life
And then, just by slowing down your thoughts
You remember what you're grateful for.
My daddy's back!
I learned magic.
I can make money disappear.
Wow.
Oi.
There's going to be something on the news in a sec.
Meanwhile, the devastated residents
of Affaron Heights held a meeting today in the CBD.
Where residents expressed their frustration
at a lack of adequate information...
Is it about our building, Dad?
Mm.
There's nothing to worry about, mate. OK?
OK.
You want to go outside and play and I'll be right out?
- Alright. - Alrighty.
Edward, hurry up!
I'm coming, Ruby.
Distressed residents learnt today
that they're in for a complicated
and possibly lengthy legal battle
between the Strata Committee,
the builders and state government.
No timeline has been set
for residents to return to their apartments.
Cassie's back. I better give her a hand.
Here, sweetie.
- Thanks. - You sure?
Of course.
Nuestra casa es su casa.
Really?
Of course.
Oh, thank you, thank you both so much.
What does it mean?
It means...
That you keep staying here too.
Yay! Can we? Please, please?
Of course you can.
Yay, yay! Yay, yay, yay! Everybody's going to stay!
Come on. Homemade banana cake and ice cream.
Daddy will get the plates. Come on.
Yay!
- Hey, Cassie? - Yes, Ruby?
What is your password by the way?
Sretfar.
S-R-E-T...
Rafters backwards?
Anyone'll guess that in one go.
Hm. You do know what you just said.
Oh, yeah.
Come.
These were a big investment.
You seem rather more worried about the dog poo
than you do about our little girl.
That online stuff is child abuse.
There's Ruby, of course. Goes without saying.
It's bad.
I could give you some
to sell on the sideline.
They're floaters, my friend.
Or gemstones.
Polished turds, at best.
Reindeer poo for Christmas.
You have the optimism of an artist, Carbo.
Why thank you, Charles.
And the instincts of a snake oil salesman.
You know that's not an actual thing, snake oil.
Concern yourself with Ruby's peace of mind.
And some empathy for Mrs Rafter.
Here you go, champion.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
Now remember, one is for Rubes.
- Remember? - Yes. Yeah? Alright.
Ruby, come and get your ice cream.
How you feeling about everything?
I mean, the meeting.
Oh, er,
well, I expected to be gutted
but oddly it's sort of a relief.
How's that?
The legal action's in motion and for some reason I feel...
...sort of, freed up.
I'm buried in debt.
And sorry for everyone struggling but...
I dunno, I feel interested in what's up ahead.
It was all new stuff at this retreat.
Learning to be detached from it all.
That's good to hear.
Might be a delayed reaction...
Thanks?
- Hmm, we'll check tomorrow. - Thanks.
Could be as easy as getting out of your own way.
Making room to set things straight.
Would you like to sit down?
Uh, I haven't got long, sorry.
At this retreat...
..thing, I, I did some thinking.
And?
If I offended you at all while I was here,
I'm really sorry.
Nathan, you were a complete jerk that last night.
Justin, on the other hand was perfectly charming
and did not deserve what you served out.
I can't tell you how angry I was.
I've been a pain since the day I started.
No argument.
That, that wasn't me.
Like, the real me.
It was my id.
There's plenty of other bits which are, which are pretty OK.
- Such as? - I'm essentially a good guy.
I just, I wasn't thinking straight when I started here.
I did see your building on the news.
Yikes to you.
Yeah, it'll work out.
No one's died, we've got a roof over our head.
- I like your attitude. - So we're good?
Friends, kinda?
Reckon that you could give us a hand for an hour?
Maybe two?
Yeah, I can do that.
Maybe it was remembering
to be a Rafter again.
Maybe we all were.
- Hi. - Hi.
And, Ben,
what about you?
Anything you'd like to say?
Not really, no.
Anything about what we've been saying
that you might find difficult to...
To share with Cassie?
I just wanna give our parents what they gave us.
Carry on the Rafter tradition.
But each time Cassie gets pregnant
she miscarries.
Well, obviously I'm gonna be there for Cassie
to support her.
She's asking how do you feel.
You're upset
So I want to be strong for you.
Ben.
They were your babies too.
I feel sad.
I feel...
... very sad.
I'm afraid of saying the wrong thing and...
I feel sad.
It's when you stop forcing your way
around those corners,
corners start turning by themselves.
Oh, you mean he resigned?
Jeremy, I had no idea about any of that.
I'd never been to a retreat before,
I was just sharing some ideas.
Yeah, I will.
Yeah, I, I certainly will.
Thanks.
Mum. You are not going to believe this.
I've just been offered a job.
- Here. - Here where?
Managing the wellness retreat.
What happened to the bloke I met?
Well, he ran off with a guest.
Yeah, he said it was hard to keep staff.
Well, Nathan mentioned to the owner
what he liked about the place, what he might change and...
I mean, it helped that they know you, obviously.
Local connection.
- So will he take it? - Well, he sounded keen.
He's even talking about Edward going to Buradeena Primary.
Ah, better answer it this time.
- Observation Earth? - I'd say so.
- Hello, darling!
Just a second.
So basically Observation Earth has dumped me.
I wouldn't put it that way.
But they have.
I just thought you deserved better than a phone call.
Because you really are a remarkable girl, Ruby.
Your troll painting, that was...
That was very brave.
It was a tactic.
To show the bullies they hadn't upset me.
Even though they had.
From now on I'm just going to ignore them.
That's right.
And to ease up on social media.
You're a natural leader, Ruby.
Just like your sister.
Did Rachel tell you to come and see me?
Yeah, she did.
Excellent.
Rachel's just so lit.
She is.
And so are you.
So, Justin did the best he could with the deal but...
...they were always after more control.
You know, her scheduling, her clothes.
So she dodged a bullet. Good.
Well, I don't know about that but...
I mean, it might've ironed out her spark.
And how are you, sweetheart?
I've just missed you all so much since I've been back.
Aww, yeah. Well, you look after yourself.
Keep us posted.
Yeah, I will. Oh, um...
I got a call coming through.
OK, I'm going to take that.
Love you guys, bye!
Love you, bye!
I should've kept my mouth shut.
I should've kept Carbo away from Ruby.
Bugger Observation Earth. What are we doing, Jules?
Paddo said something to me the other night
about seeing things in a different way but...
It doesn't matter what way I look at it I...
I don't know.
All I know is that we are tiptoeing around...
a word.
What word?
Divorce.
I know.
And I know I've got to work this out.
But I'm going to go back to Sydney,
I'll pack up our stuff
and I'll bring Ruby back here.
I don't know what I can promise, Dave.
Except...
..having another run at finding...
..Julie Rafter here.
Maybe it was time for everyone to reset.
All of us on the move.
It's the only certainty in life.
There will be change.
Acceptance opens up possibilities.
Staying on the run closes them down.
The first step to acceptance is the hardest one.
Telling the truth.
To yourself.
You've called Rachel Rafter,
leave a message and I'll call you back.
Hi, Rach, it's your dad.
I've come to a serious decision about your mum.
