Lucy hadn't been to Angela's for ages, mainly due to the fact Wesley was not impressed with how Tamara behaved around Jack and blamed Lucy for it all. Lucy walked in awkwardly trying to not look at Wesley, she didn't want any issues but wasn't happy with him.

She headed straight to the guest room and put her stuff down on the bed. Angela came in shortly after.

"Lu, Wesley wants to talk to u,"

"Ange I'm not in the mood."

"Come on."

They walk out to the living room and sit down on the sofa. Willow climbed and sat herself on Lucy's lap.

"Hey cutie, u alright?"

"Auntie Lulu I've missed u,"

"I've missed u too baby," Luce said while hugging her.

Wesley walked in from the kitchen,

"Lucy I'm sorry."

"No honestly it's fine."

"No Lucy, It wasn't my place to say anything about Tamara's behaviour."

"Wesley it's fine that was like a year ago."

"Well I want u to know I'm sorry and ur always welcome here."

"Thank u, it means a lot." Lucy replied while playing with willows hair, she had fallen asleep hugging Lucy.

Hours pass and they are still sat on the couch chatting, Lucy was telling Wesley about the custody agreement Tim had requested.

"I don't know what to do about it, she's my daughter and I want her to live with me but I want her to be happy."

"What if she stayed once or twice a week?" Angela suggested.

"You could ask Tamara to decide what she wants to do." Wesley added.

"She would choose to stay with Tim and his sister," Lucy sighed,

"Listen Luce I don't want to rush u but u need to sign the divorce papers." Angela said.

"I just can't, that's 12 years of marriage down the drain."

"Do u think Tim would change his mind about wanting one?" Wesley asked.

"No u can tell he's 100% done."

By the end of the conversation Lucy had signed the papers and was dialling Tim's number to talk about custody of Tam. She went into the guest bedroom wanting some privacy.

On the phone:

"Lucy why are u calling ?"

"I need to talk to u about the custody agreement Tim."

"Theres nothing to discuss."

"What does Tamara want ? Who would she rather stay with?"

"Lucy she said she wants to live with me. I'm sorry."

"Can I speak to her ?"

Tim puts Tamara on the phone

"Tam?"

"Mom I'm sorry."
