Karissa Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 Prologue It has been a year since Noah passed away, and life for Hayley has been anything but easy. The future that she had dreamed of was wiped away in an instant during that fateful stormy night when Noah was shot dead by crazed Sarah. Everyone in the small seaside town of Summer Bay were left in sadness and shock, none more so than Hayley. She had married her first love only two months before he died and everything they had planned would just be a dream. Moving on seemed so easy, but in fact it was harder than she thought. In the months since Noah’s death, loved ones and friends had been telling Hayley that it was ok to move on and that her love for Noah will never fade away because she will always have and carry memories with her. The concert held in Noah’s honour and her paintings made moving on easier and less painful. Summer Bay’s new bar, which was named after Noah as a memorial was a sign that Noah will always be watching over Hayley and the Bay. It also marked the start of a new era. Chapter 1 Hayley awoke to the sounds of Irene clashing and bashing about the kitchen. She wanted to lie in bed for a while, but the smell of freshly cooked pancakes made her tummy rumble. Throwing a pair of jeans and a top on, Hayley quickly dashed to the bathroom then joined Irene, Kim and Olivia for breakfast. Good morning love, Sleep well asked Irene, carrying a plate of pancakes and a pitcher of orange juice to the table. Slept like a log. I am starving said Hayley pouring herself a glass of orange juice Kim finished the last of his breakfast before getting ready for his shift at the local gym. I had better get going, my clients are going to get annoyed if I’m late said Kim Don’t let us keep you then said Irene as Kim walked out the door. Hayley got up and walked over to the sink and rinsed her plate and glass before placing them on the drying rack Irene had put next to the sink. It’s time you got dressed Olivia and don’t forget to brush you teeth said Irene I won’t replied Olivia walking up the stairs What are you plans for today asked Irene I don’t have any said Hayley Would you mind spending the day with Olivia asked Irene Doesn’t she have school? Pupil free day and unfortunaly I have to work today and tonight. I promised Leah I would cover her night shift for her explained Irene glancing around for her keys, which she found on the hall table near the stairs Ok. I’m sure there will be plenty of things for us to do today said Hayley Thanks Dahl said a relieved Irene. Where are you going reenie asked Olivia returning to the lounge room I have to go to work sweetie, but you are going to spend the day with Hayley explains Irene We’ll have lots of fun and we can even pop into the diner to visit Irene smiled Hayley I have got to go. You be a good girl for Hayley says Irene giving the girls hugs then quickly dashing out the door What we doing today asked Olivia looking at Hayley First we have to go into Yabbie Creek to pick up supplies for Noah’s bar, then if you like we could grab a milkshake or an Ice cream later on replied Hayley smiling at the little girl standing next to her Olivia had lost her mother Chloe almost 2 months ago when a freak car accident claimed her life then all of a sudden she found herself at the centre of a nasty custody dispute between Irene and her grandmother Diana Fraiser. Olivia was thrilled when Irene won custody, she could now live in Summer Bay with her new family. Hayley knew what Olivia was feeling as it was only 6 years ago since her own father died. She adored Olivia and knew that Chloe would have been happy that her daughter was going to have a bright future to look forward to and a stable home life. Can we go now asked Olivia impatiently Yes we can. Lets go said Hayley ushering her out the door closing it behind her.

Karissa Posted April 7, 2006 Report Posted April 7, 2006 Chapter 2 At exactly 11.30 the Bus pulled into the depot in Yabbie Creek and Hayley and Olivia stepped out. Normally Hayley would have driven to Yabbie Creek, but she wrecked her car in an accident at the beginning of 2004 and never got around to buying a new one. Where are we going first asked Olivia? We are going to pick up the supplies for the bar first, then if you like we could do some window shopping before lunch explained Hayley while trying to decide weather to cross the road or not. Meanwhile, the diner was filling up fast which was unusual for a Wednesday, Irene and Leah were run off their feet. Leah had forgotten to mention to Irene that it was the day a tour group comes to the diner for breakfast. As there were only two of them (Colleen had gone to Italy with Sally and baby Pippa for two weeks) running to and from the kitchen it made work very tiring and stressful especially with all the complaints and noise. Where are all these people coming from asked Irene coming into the kitchen with empty plates. A tour group comes for breakfast on the first Wednesday of every month explained Leah Where’s colleen when you need her sighs Irene Can you take this to table 4 please asked Leah handing her plates of food. Back in Yabbie Creek, Hayley and Olivia walked out of a shop carrying supplies for the bar and other shopping when they ran into Scott who was picking up some boating gear for a charter he was going to later in the afternoon. Lately things between her and Scott have been very tense. Ever since they found out that Scott was not the father of her baby, their relationship hit rock bottom and they ended up calling it quits. They had tried to make something work that clearly wasn’t going to and it only put more strain on their friendship. Hayley was now in a relationship with Kim (The baby’s father) but while her mind was there her heart wasn’t. She still had unresolved feelings for Scott and when ever she saw him things became more difficult. Sometimes she wished Noah was still here then her love life wouldn’t be so messy and complicated. Hayley wondered if she should say hi, but Scott beat her to it Hey Hayls said Scott smiling awkwardly Hi, how are you replied Hayley nervously looking at the ground rather then Scott I’m fine, How are you said Scott Great. Olivia and I were just doing some shopping and we were just about to grab some lunch, but everywhere seems to be full, so I think we might go to the diner instead explained Hayley I won’t hold you up. See you around said Scott Yeah I hope so replied Hayley Bye Olivia smiled Scott walking down the street away from them. Come on Olivia there’s the bus said Hayley taking Olivia’s Hand When they got back to the bay, they headed for the diner.
