Tom’s on a knife edge waiting to find out whether Natasha will make apologies for their meeting with the website developer, Leo. To Tom’s astonishment she turns up in person, blaming the traffic for her delay. They pore over the details of the scheme, agreeing it’s important to be happy. Leo observes they’re a pleasure to work with; they both know what they want and clearly operate well together as a team. They agree they’ve always been on the same wavelength, and that there’s bound to be the odd bump in the road. The important thing is to get there in the end. The website and app look great. They can’t wait to get it up and running.

Alone over coffee they talk through the events of the last few weeks. Natasha knows she’s been cruel to Tom. She just needed to escape from being ‘Mrs Archer from Ambridge’ to work out what she wanted. She couldn’t deal with all the expectation. But the weeks away from Tom have been the worst of her life. She’s sorry. So what brought her back, wonders Tom. It was his dad, replies Natasha. Tony rang and spoke to her, and was kind and understanding. She’s here to stay. Tom’s stunned. Now they can move forward together. Amid fresh honeymoon plans they reaffirm their love for each other.
