[00:00.00]The interior of the bar 

[00:02.71]was dark. Her quest 

[00:04.57]to locate Jeff and Zac 

[00:06.43]had taken two years. 

[00:08.30]She had paid private investigators 

[00:11.58]in American currency to help her 

[00:13.98]locate her exhusband. 

[00:15.97]In her handbag she carried 

[00:17.94]the necessary proof that 

[00:19.91]would identify her to 

[00:21.33]the authorities if she was successful 

[00:23.40]in being able to 

[00:25.05]bring Zac home again, to Canada. 

[00:26.91]She had been impatient 

[00:29.87]for this moment to arrive for so long 

[00:32.05]and yet now she just wanted 

[00:34.46]to secure her son with a minimum of fuss. 

[00:37.63]Now, right on cue, 

[00:40.26]a tall stranger slipped into 

[00:42.88]the bar and sat down. 

[00:44.41]One glimpse told her 

[00:46.93]it was Jeff. 

[00:48.24]He looked weary( and older 

[00:50.32]but definitely familiar. 

[00:52.95]A chill ran up her spine. 

[00:55.69]Close to success, she refused to concede defeat. 

[01:00.38]It was the time 

[01:02.57]to remedy the enormous sadness. 

[01:04.65]This time she wanted 

[01:07.06]a guarantee of success. 

[01:09.47]She stared straight ahead 

[01:11.98]with a vacant look, trying to 

[01:13.73]grasp the important moment. 

[01:15.81]Vivid scenes, from the past two years’ search, 

[01:20.40]flashed through her mind.

[01:22.71]The following day, happily for Lesley, 

[01:26.21]the headline of the local paper read, 

[01:29.16]“Father turns over child. 

[01:32.22]Mother slams system.”

[01:34.52]Lesley and Zac’s subsequent life 

[01:38.13]could now resume some form of normalcy,

[01:40.64] however, the stress and strain 

[01:43.38]of the past two years 

[01:45.03]would always remain as a part 

[01:46.99]of this renewed relationship in the memory.
