Henry

I wasn't that close to Mum when I was younger. When I was home, I'd be out on the farm with Dad and Mattie and Scott and Kit (dunno where Rob was, probably blowing something up). When I was at boarding school... well, I was at boarding school... I didn't really see that much of her. I sometimes thought I didn't even need Mum, but that's so not true. I really miss her. I wish I could have spent more time with her when she was alive, but then I wouldn't be doing what she wanted me to - to be myself and follow my dreams (even if that sounds kind of lame.)

Mum always encouraged me to be a good person and do the right thing, which was pretty boring but I guess it kept me out of trouble. Most of the time. And even though I didn't like living with the Sutherlands or going to a public school at first, if Mum hadn't moved us to Summer Bay, I never would have met Ric or Cassie, and that would have sucked. I still kind of miss the farm though... It was in the middle of nowhere and nothing ever happened, but it felt like we all belonged there, together. Scott reckons he saw Dad's ghost there once... I wonder if Mum will go there too?
