Leah is indeed correct — her son is not the father of the child. A mother knows when something is not right — and Leah can tell something is definitely amiss in the relationship between her son VJ and his lover, Billie. Put it down to a mother’s instinct or chalk it up to intuition, but Leah (Ada Nicodemou) has sensed from the very beginning that there is far more to the story that Billie (Tessa de Josselin) has been spinning ever since the young beauty dropped the bombshell that she is pregnant and claiming teenage VJ (Matt Little) is the father. This is far more than a mother battling with the reality of a teenager growing up too soon, or being naturally overprotective of her child. It’s more a…

Watching it takes…
