Big Bro

Jade was still seated in the dining with a frown etched between her brows as she tried to figure out what was up with Andy when Candace returned.

"I'm back. I hope I didn't keep you waiting for too long," Candace announced as she took the seat opposite Jade.

Jade glanced up at her, "You didn't. Is Andy okay? She didn't seem fine," Jade asked, concern coloring her tone.

Candace nodded, a hint of worry in her eyes. "She's a bit tipsy. I guess she had a little too much to drink at her place," Candace said and Jade sighed.

"I see. So, what did you want to talk about?" Jade asked, her voice tinged with weariness.

Candace hesitated, her gaze searching Jade's face. "You know how Andy and I were talking to you yesterday?" she began tentatively, and Jade gave her a nod.
