"You married into such an interesting family. When I said we needed to gossip, I had no idea that the gossip would be so interesting." Charlotte told Carol, pretending to be amazed while thinking to herself how gullible this woman was.
"I'm telling you. So, anyway, to the real gossip, and the reason why I need advice ... It's that Jessica woman." Carol said, feeling horrible about bringing this up, but unable to help herself.
"What about her?" Charlotte asked, pretending not to really care when in reality, her heart was beating a mile a minute at the mention of Jessica's name. That girl had the power to make everything go to shit once she regained consciousness ... if she ever did, that is, and she was one of the major reasons that Charlotte was here. She needed to get as much information about her, such as which hospital she was admitted to and stuff like that.
"Well ... I mean ... I don't know how to say it, and I feel horrible even thinking it, but I don't like her at all."
