The woman and her son held hands as they made their way home. Alex let them into the house and Nathan went running upstairs. Alex followed, seeing Nathan parked in front of the TV and turning on his kids shows.
Alex smiles softly, perching herself at her desk, opening up her laptop. She opens up the messages between Simon.
Alex: Simon, I have something to tell you
Simon: okay...
Alex: I want to speak to you in person, alone, please? I can give you my address?
Simon: okay sure
Alex sends on her address and Simon says he'll be round in an hour.
Alex looks over at her son, standing up.
"So, Nate, what do you fancy for dinner?" Alex asks and Nathan grins.
"Pizza!" He claps and Alex smiles, rolling her eyes.
"Fine," Alex says, opening the freezer and taking out a large pizza. She opens up the box and takes out the pizza, placing it in the oven. She walks over to sit down next to her son and gives him a warm smile.
"Simon is coming over in an hour, is that okay?" Alex asks and Nathan nods.
"Okay, good," Alex says and she wraps an arm round her little boy.
After 30 minutes Alex dishes up the pizza along with a bowl of fries.
Alex and Nathan eat their food and then Nathan goes off to his room to play.
Alex breathes in deeply. It had been an hour since Simon had said he'd be an hour, and Alex was getting more nervous every time a minute ticked by on her watch.
Suddenly the doorbell rang and her head shot round.
"Nathan! Mommy will get it!" Alex calls and she hears Nathan mumble a reply.
She heads downstairs and opens the front door finding Simon.
"Hey," She says and he smiles.
"Hey, whats up?" He asks.
"Come in, I'll explain over a drink," She says and she steps aside to allow Simon inside.
He walks in, looking round.
Alex leads him upstairs, taking him to the living room. She makes sure his eyes stay on her, and that they don't wonder to any of the photos on the walls.
"So, what would you like to drink?" Alex asks and Simon shrugs.
"Tea please," He says and Alex nods.
She puts the kettle on and after a few moments she makes up two cups of tea and gives one to Simon.
"So, what did you have to tell me?" Simon asks and Alex looks away.
