"Hi Dad. Hi Mom."
Her voice came out timid. Seeing her, Jill shot up from the sofa, looking positively resentful.
"How is it that you two have come home together?"
Surprised to see them standing so close that their shoulders almost touched, Jill lashed out at Cassandra. Her blatant stare made Cassandra quiver with unease.
