"Well now we know who you really are Lexie, why don't we all sit down and we can talk properly. You must be her husband. It's nice to meet you"

"And you, I hope it's okay that I'm here"

"Of course. This is a good thing"

"Excellent."

"Lexie now why don't we start with Anna! Why did you make her up?"

"Anna is me, I never lied about anything about my life except for my name and that's because I was afraid of who and what was waiting for me. You never know who you can trust"

"I'm glad you were able to speak to your husband"

"He found me, some girls spotted me and he found me"

"And how did that feel?"

"Scared. I tried to call him but there was no answer so I called my mother and finally spoke to her and she told me he was coming"

"You didn't tell me this?"

"Robert let's let Lexie talk. Continue?"

"I panicked, I hung up the phone to her and started packing up my stuff. I was about to run again but then he was there at the door and all that fear it left my body and I just wanted to see him and hold him"

"And now what do you feel lexie?"

"I want to see my children and I want to see my family"

"So does this mean your going home?"

"I'm ready"

"So is this our last session?"

"Yeah it will be and I want to thank you so much for basically saving me"

"It's my job Mrs Downey and I'm glad you came here for help"

"It's thanks to you I'm gonna have my wife back and I'm so grateful and I would like to give you something as a thank you"

"Sit there is no need it's my job to help my patients"

"But you don't know the pain I've been in and thanks to you and her friends I'm getting her back"

Rob pulls out his cheque book and writes on it and hands it too her " no one has to know I gave it too you, it's a thank you. Cash it or don't it's up to you. Thank you"

..

When we get back to the hotel, rob helps me pack up my stuff and then I go next door to go see Jess

She opens the door and invites me in

"Hey mason how you doing Bud?"

"Hi Anna"

"It would be too confusing to tell him. How are you doing?"

"I'm going home, back to the states"

"I'm gonna miss you"

"I'm gonna miss you too, thank you so much for everything"

"Hey don't be silly your my friend and I know we haven't known eachother long but I'm so glad I met you. Being here you don't really have many friends"

"That's why I wanted to see you, Rob has this for you" I hand her an envelope and she opens it

"What the fuck? Is this real?"

"I don't know how much is on there but he wanted you to have something so you can be happy and give mason a good life"

"Lexie there's $500,000 here"

"Yeah he can be quite extravagant"

"I can't accept this, your my friend"

"Hey that's Roberts gift. You haven't had mine yet"

"What?"

"Come with me. Hey Mason how would you like to hang out with Tony Stark"

"YESSSSSS"

"Let's go" I take masons hand and walk him to my hotel room

"Tony this is your biggest fan mason"

"Hi iron man"

"Nice to meet you mason, you gonna hang out with me for a little while"

"Yes please mummy can I?"

"Sure, where are we going Lexie?"

"Trust me. This man is amazing with kids so mason is safe"

"Okay"

I take the keys to Rob's rental car and me and Jess head out.

I pull up outside a building and we get out. We walk towards a door and I turn the key and we go inside

"Are you moving here lex?"

"No, we have our home in America"

"So who's house is this?"

"Yours"

"What?"

"This is my gift to you Jess, a home for you and mason. Something you've always wanted"

"Lexie this is crazy"

"This is yours. And the money from Robert will help you to live for awhile. The house is paid for of course but you will have your own bills. The house is in your name. It's my gift to the two of you. You helped me get my home back so now I'm doing the same for you"

"Are you crazy?"

"Thank you Jessica for everything"

"This is for me?"

"Yeah, 3 bedroom house, beautiful garden and right by an amazing school for Mason"

"This is too much, thank you so much"

"Want a tour?"

"Hell yeah!"

What's the point in having money if you can't help someone out once and while.
