Trang manages a clothing store and hires Mel as a part-time shop assistant. After starting her new job Mel discloses that she recently left an abusive relationship and is fearful of her former partner, Jane. Trang and Mel discuss a safety plan, including what to do if Jane shows up at the workplace. Mel has been employed for 3 months when she receives a phone call at work and suddenly leaves halfway through her shift. Trang is on a break at the time, so Mel tells her co-worker 'I have to go. Please tell Trang I'll explain later'. Trang tries calling Mel but is unable to reach her. Mel sends a message that evening saying 'I'm ok. There was an incident with my ex. I'll be back at work tomorrow'. Mel returns to work the next day. She explains that the phone call she received was from her teenage daughter, telling her Mel's former partner was at their home in breach of a protection order. Mel called the police on the way home and attended the station with her daughter to provide a statement.
