The Turning Point - Bridgitte Lesley
CHAPTER 1
After months of being shunned by the entire community, Bev and Lance knew they had to make drastic changes. Gossip and the grapevine had poisoned everyone against them as a family. Even the children bore the brunt of the chitter chatter. The family had always gone out of their way to support the local community. But after Lance was shown the cold shoulder, and not one person finding out the real facts about the family, and the ordeal they had gone through, they knew things had to change.

Bev and the family stayed at home for a week so that Bev could recuperate and settle in to her routine. After being away for months, and spending weeks in the hospital, she needed downtime. But after a week of staying at home, the family felt like they had chicken fever. Cooped up in the house and not going anywhere for an entire week. But it was all for a good reason. All Bev had allowed herself was one week to recover and recharge her batteries. She was no longer sick, and life had to be lived. Living it up by going shopping was the best therapy for the family.

On Saturday morning the family were all up early. There was so much excitement in the air it almost fizzled and popped. Agnes, the housekeeper, walked in to the house to make their breakfast but all they had was a cup of coffee and a glass of juice. They were so eager to get out of the house and for the first time ever, go to the mall. She laughed as she waved them off for the day. It had been a relaxing week. The first thing she did was to switch on the dishwasher and get stuck in and clean properly. By the time the family arrived home, she wanted the house to sparkle and gleam. The children were beyond excited. Agnes had found the car seat and Matthew sat between the bigger children.
*
They left home and Lance drove to the mall which was quite a distance. It was the first time they were going on a long trip. The mall would also be quite an experience for the entire family. As they arrived they climbed out of the van and were almost mesmerized by the size of the mall and the number of shops. Lance carried Matthew in his arms. They went to a restaurant for their breakfast which was such a treat. They sat down and Bev stood up and put her hand on Lance's shoulder. I will be back in five minutes.
Lance watched as she walked across the passage to the bank. Bev drew a statement
