Chapter 544 - Ca.s.sandra and Jean...
To be frank he didn"t feel much. After all he was not aware who his real parents are and only found about them some months back. To him his mother will always be Maria….
But he doesn"t know what is wrong with her….
She started keeping herself busy and mostly avoided meeting Jean. Even now she didn"t accompany them to visit her sister"s grave.
She even informed them that she wouldn"t be able to come to Jean"s wedding…
"We better visit before sunset. It will be dangerous to travel in those roads at night time" Scott said. He just wanted his wife to be safe in all means.
Others understood his fear and didn"t drag their sentimental time anymore. They quickly started getting ready and in meanwhile Scott and Jeff started conversing.
"You should have brought my little brother in law too" Scott whispered.
Greys are not yet aware of who Jasper is and they couldn"t risk it by telling them about Jas. For one or other reason his existence is kept as secret and it is intended to continue in same way…
"He doesn"t want to come. He has been to his mother"s grave before and it seems it didn"t go well." Jeff whispered back.
"He is with Iris and Rick now. Probably getting trained or experimenting on his new robots…. he is such a tech nerd that it gives me head ache whenever I see that alien language." Jeff laughed.
Scott chuckled. "Both he and his sister are like that. Even I feel like that sometimes seeing her all engrossed in it. I honestly don"t know how they manage to sit for hours and hours" he shook his head and exhaled air through his mouth.
"It might be because of their mentor. I listened a lot about him from Jasper. Oh G.o.d…" Jeff sighed. His little brother and twin sister are born genius and they are more alike. He is an odd one out…
Meanwhile….
Jean is standing in balcony as she gazed at the flower garden, she, Ca.s.sandra have planted with their father"s. It"s been so long she came back to this place and honestly, she didn"t expect it to remain same. Someone has been taking care of it…
"It"s dad. He didn"t agree with mom to reconstruct this place. He just wanted to keep it as a memory of big uncle and you." Ca.s.sandra who just entered the rom said from behind.
Jean smiled and nodded her head as she rested her elbow on the rails and enjoyed the fragrance of earth, which emanates before raining.
Ca.s.sandra smiled and looked at her sister"s peaceful face. She didn"t talk but stood beside her sister leaning on to rails.
"How"s your training going on? And did you enjoy the meetings you attended with Drake, my director?" Jean asked with her eyes still closed.
"Training is going on very well sister. Lately, my mentor even praised me for my antics" Ca.s.sandra smiled. "And about Drake...he is a cool guy but I don"t want to get into any relations.h.i.+p before I fix my tainted image" her smile turned little sad. Her loneliness evident in every word of her feelings.
"Ca.s.s, you are in right track and it will not take much time to erase those taints. Start loving yourself all right, whatever happened is already done and this change is for your own good. Be strong and don"t forget that I will always be there for you" Jean genuinely said and hugged her sister.
Ca.s.sandra couldn"t help but breakdown. Her tears streamed as she started to sob softly. "I am so sorry for what all I had done. Though I don"t deserve second chance still you gave me one. I honestly disgust myself for what I did to you. I was so naïve, stubborn and vicious at that time….it make me feel so embarra.s.sed. I am sorry big sister" she sniffled and sobbed.
Jean chuckled slightly and patted her back. "You know what Ca.s.s, this moment made me remember our childhood. You kicked one of the boys on his stomach because he tried to tease me and it became a very big issue that you started crying and hugged me like this. You are sobbing just like this but when he came to tease us again you directly kicked him in his a.s.s and he never showed up again" she laughed.
"Probably he would be cursing us for kicking his…" Jean stopped when Ca.s.sandra shyly complained in between her sobs. "Nothing happened to it. I even visited him when he is in hospital" she laughed.
"And blackmailed him again so he will never come back to school" Jean laughed.
"You know that!!" Ca.s.sandra asked all surprised.
Jean laughed and nodded her head. Before Vanessa ruined up their harmonious sisterhood, Ca.s.sandra was actually very protective of Jean who was very sensitive and delicate back then.
"So, dear sister what I wanted to remind you is…. you are not a bad person. You just got manipulated by your mother. You are the same girl who went to hospital with basket full of fruits to meet that boy though he is a bad one there and you are the same fighter who use to never give up on anything. You are still you…. you just need some time to pick up your thoughts and mend your heart. I believe in you and I do really believe that you are a good person by nature. So, just don"t think much and torture yourself. I really forgave you" Jean patted her back and wiped a tear from her own face.
"Uhh….my pregnancy made me really sensitive to these emotions" Jean laughed with tears welled up in her eyes.
"I want a nephew sis." Ca.s.sandra said as she looked tenderly at Jean"s stomach.
Jean chuckled. If Scott would have listened to this, he would have hated Ca.s.sandra more than he use to do back then.
