"No Tessa, this is where I was born. I lived here with my parents and my younger brother until I was 18 years old"
"Where is your brother now?"
"He is in heaven, my darling. He died a couple of years ago, and my parents as well. Some man was drunk and there was an accident on the motorway. I survived; people said it was a miracle".

Follow up:

"Do you have an angel daddy?"
"An angel? You mean a guardian-angel?...yes, I think I have. He brought your mummy and me together again, didn't he?"
"Let's go to mummy, I miss her".
Marc picked Tessa up and touched her nose. "Sure, we're going straight home. I miss her also".
He picked up the phone, dialled Tracy's number and told her they would be at Altitude 100 in about 30 minutes. Marc was a fast driver.
