Extended Summary
Indi keeps Annie’s letter to Romeo a secret as she tries to decide what to do about it. However before she decides, Indi is sprung when Alf reveals he gave it to her. Indi pretends that she lost the letter but Romeo doesn’t entirely trust Indi and asks Nicole what she thinks. After confessing to Sid, he tells Indi to return the letter to Romeo, emphasising the importance of honesty. Her curiosity too much to contain, Indi secretly reads the letter then returns it to Romeo sealed up again. Romeo has some doubts about her story and it’s clear Indi didn’t like whatever it was she read in the letter.
After declining John’s marriage proposal Gina is doing her best to avoid him, certain he only proposed as a scared reaction to his heart attack. John realises he has to convince Gina that he truly loves her, and convinces her to go with him to dinner.
Shandi and Miles grow closer together, a meal and a few drinks later they end up joining John and Gina at Angelo’s. Over the course of the meal John recounts the story of when he met Gina but, keeping her emotions hidden, Gina reads as cold to John. Feeling foolish, he eventually gets up and leaves and, feeling the relationship is unsalvageable, decides to move out of the house. Is this the end for John and Gina?
