When a relationship comes to a crossroads, sometimes it’s better to follow different paths.
For weeks, Alex and Willow have grappled with their feelings for each other and the circumstances that could tear them apart. And in Home And Away, they’ll final come to a heartbreaking resolution.
Despite Willow (Sarah Roberts) choosing to leave town with Alex (Zoë Ventoura) in recent episodes, it’s clear she’s doing so out of the desperate desire to stay together.
Doctor Alex plans to take a job offer in Queensland, but won’t force her girlfriend to upend her life – Willow belongs in Summer Bay.
At her apartment, Willow begs Alex to stay one more night. It’s a sad and tender moment between the couple as they reflect on the night they met and how far they’ve come since.
As they go to sleep, Willow remains hopeful about their future. Alex, however, is about to make the hardest decision of her life: to leave Willow. That was their final goodbye.
The following morning, Willow wakes to find Alex gone and a goodbye note on her pillow. Tears stream down her cheeks as she reads Alex’s words.
For hours, she stays in bed, ignoring phone calls from her friends, and wallows in all that she feels she’s lost – relationships, friends and her passion for her job.
There’s only one person who can pull Willow out of despair: Dean (Patrick O’Connor). Can he reach her before she spirals into depression?
