Living with a hostile Jessica
There was silence in the car for a minute or two as Carol contemplated what Sebastian had just said, not liking it one bit.
"You want Jessica to come live with us?" She asked him incredulously, at last, her tone rigid.
"That's not what I said. She's the one who asked me, so I said I was going to have to inform you first ... which is why I'm asking you now."
"Have you seen how that woman glares at me each time I walk into a room she's in? She stares at me like she wants to kill me. How do you expect us to live in the same house?"
"I told you before that she's a nice person once you get to know her. She's just cranky because she's been confined to a hospital bed all this while."
"Is that so? How come she's never cranky with you then? Why is she only always cranky with me? Look, I know when someone, especially a woman, doesn't like me, and I'll bet my bottom dollar that Jessica doesn't, not even in the slightest."
