/"She’s here, isn’t she? I got her back. I’m not going to be that dumb again, I swear./" He huffs and squeezes me a little tighter. Sylvana scowls at him, then her face drops, and she heaves a sudden sigh, remembering her dilemma.
/"This is what the so much worse is./" She flaps her hands with a dramatic sigh. /"Marissa is here. In the sitting room./" She grimaces and both Jake and I tense up instantly. My breath catches painfully, but Jake is the first to speak.

/"She’s staying with her family for the weekend and just showed up asking to see me and talk about things … She’s carrying my grandchild remember. I couldn’t turn her away!/" Sylvana slaps her hands on her hips and glowers at her son.
