Part Two –

Dave threw himself down on his couch, exhausted from doing nothing. Since the continuous down pour of rain had started, he'd only been called out twice. Reluctantly he dragged himself up and headed to the bathroom. Slowly he pulled his clothes off, he sighed with frustration at that simple task. Turning the tap on he let the warm water drench away his tiredness.

A loud knock at the door, tore him from his state of relaxation. Quickly he wrapped a towel around his toned waist and exited the steamy room.

"Coming!" he yelled coming out of the bathroom.

Swiftly he opened the door. "Sally!"

"What are you doing—" He noticed she had been crying, " are you ok?"

" I'm sorry for coming… It's just that…I can't … Can't." She stood there, tears splashing down her face.

"Come inside." He motioned for her to sit on the couch, "I'll be back."

Dave chucked on a baby blue tee-shirt and shorts before going back out to the living room.

"Why here?" He wondered as he handed her a box of tissues.

"Can I get you something else ?" He looked at the sobbing figure.

"No, I …I Can't do this by myself!" She cried wiping her face.

Dave sat next to her and looked down with sympathy, she gently placed her small hand on his arm. Some things in life are so easy, to fix with mere distraction ; a kiss.

Sally's lips touched his with no hesitation and if Dave had of looked in her eyes, he'd would have seen victory pass through them. He could of never guessed what was going through her twisted mind, had he of known this was an act to trap Nick, had he'd known that she'd texted Nick to meet her there……

" What do you think your doing mate?"

Dave looked up at Nick, startled

"Nick!" Dave heard Tess.

"Nick!" Sally yelled, she acted surprised.

It was then he saw her , nothing crossed her face, nothing could have hurt him more; "why can't she look mad, anything, anger? Stupid, she doesn't like you, why do you care?" His mind battled, but there was nothing, her face dead calm; he could have thrown up. She simply walked away .

"Kate." He mumbled to himself.

I can love
but I need his heart
I am strong even on my own
but from him I never want to part
he's been there since the very start

Every step felt like a great feat, her stomach swirled uncontrollably and her head pounded ruthlessly. Some how, the exhilaration and vibrancy of yesterday had been punched out of her.

I am strong even on my own

She would get over it, "after all it was only a silly crush," she tried to tell herself.

"You ok?" Jodi asked as Kate trudged up the stair.

She nodded, vowing to herself that she would never try again for him. She looked at her skirt with disgust. "Why do I bother?" She wondered.

" Mail." Jodi handed her a letter.

Kate took it and both sat on the veranda's couch.

"Who's it from?" Jodi hugged her knees, "Kate?"

Dramatically Kate's face paled with every sentence she read, she couldn't breath, she was choking.

"Kate?"

"My Si- her words faded as cascades of tears, flooded down her face and she gasped for air.

"Jodi…"

She couldn't explain, everything blurred, she gulped the air.

Jodi took Kate protectively into her arms. T he letter floated to the ground….

'Kate, I can hardly write. The bus. Your sister. ………………………..'
