The rest of the journey home was silent, Bette pulled into the drive getting out the car. Lisa shook her head following her Mama.

Lisa walked up the stairs and into her bedroom getting stuff together for Jace. Bette walked to Jess’s side of the house getting some clothes for her and toiletries she walked through sitting them in the lounge before going upstairs to Mason’s room. She stood outside his room running her hand over the room door name sign he made. She reached for the door opening it slowly and taking a deep breath before going into the room.
Lisa got the stuff she needed for Jace before leaving her own bedroom she walked along towards Mason’s room and stood at the door watching Bette.
Bette looked around Mason’s room before lifting his bag and placing clothes in it. She closed the bag and sat it on the floor running her hands through her hair. She lifted the family picture sitting on Mason’s dresser. Everyone looked happy in the picture she smiled remembering the day in her head, she didn’t realise tears streaming down her face. Lisa sat the bag down and walked into the room pulling Bette into her arms.
“You don’t need to be the strong one all the time” Lisa said “Let it out”
“I’m angry Lisa I’m absolutely furious I didn’t pick up on what was going on, I’m the principle in that school, he’s my son and I didn’t suspect anything”
“Neither did any of us Mama, Mason didn’t want us to know and he was very good at making sure we didn’t find out” Lisa stated
“It was going on in the school Lisa…My school!”
“Mama you’ve had so much going on with Jess and Carmen, there wasn’t any signs none of us seen it” Lisa explained “You can’t control everything”
Bette wiped her eyes “Let’s go we need to get back, I promised your Mum I wouldn’t be long”
“Ok” Lisa decided it would be best not to argue and just do what Bette wanted.

They arrived back at the hospital.

“I’m just going to go see Jess before I go see Mason” Bette sighed
“I’ll come I was planning on doing the same” Lisa said
“Are you following me lisa?” Bette smiled
“Nope, just remember she’s my twin were connected, I haven’t seen her since she was brought in I wanted to give Carmen some time” Lisa explained
“Ok I believe you” Bette said
They stopped outside Jess’s room.
“Maybe disturbing them isn’t a good idea” Bette looked through the window on the door”
“They sleeping?” Lisa asked
“Yes they are” Bette moved out the way so Lisa could see
“Carmen’s got the right idea, I might just go do that with my husband” Lisa smiled “I want to check on Mum and Mason first though”
“Ok I’ll be along in a second I’m just going to have a quick read of Jess’s chart and speak to Dr Torres”
Lisa kissed Bette on the cheek “I love you Mama, and you’re allowed to get upset we all are”
“I love you too sweetheart” Bette hugged her daughter
