Jessica 1.8

Both Jacob and Cassandra were sitting in the living room, Jacob was sitting on the red sofa, watching the news, while Cassandra was sitting in her favorite overstuffed white and pink striped chair, reading a book, when Jessica, came downstairs, dressed, in a pair of jeans, a baby blue blouse, her
hair was pulled up into a ponytail, "Mom, Dad, there's something that I need to tell you, I've emailed my birth father, and my birth father, has emailed me back, and we decided that we should meet, he wants to introduce me to his family, he has a wife and daughter. Both, Cassandra and Jacob immediately stopped what they were doing and focused their attention towards Jessica. "Jessica, according to your mother, your father passed away, when you were born, whoever you think that person is, that you found on the internet, and whose claiming to be your father, is lying to you." Jacob warned, "No, I asked my mom, and she gave me this man's name." Jessica replied she refused to believe that her birth mother would come back into her life, only to tell her a lie about her birth father.  "Jessica, I'm sorry, but your father, is right, your birth father, didn't abandon you and your mother, your birth father died." Cassandra replied, "But she told me that he'd abandoned us, and that's why she had to put me up for adoption," Jessica protested, "She said that because it made his loss more bearable." Cassandra explained, "But what happened?" Jessica asked, "We really don't know, all we know, is that according to Mariah, she told us that your father, was already dead, we hadn't wanted to adopt you, if your father was still alive, thinking that he'd marry your mother." Cassandra replied, "I'm still going out." Jessica said as she started for the door. "Don't go to that strange man's house, and be back before eleven," Jacob called after her. Feeling like she was in a complete daze, Jessica, opened the front door, and walked out of the house, closing the door behind her.
