"Your parents are going to see you?" Carl heard what Jessica had just said.

"Yes."

Jessica answered him absently. She held her phone and thought about how to deal with it.

Carl observed Jessica's expression and guessed what was on her mind, but pretended not to know it and said, "When are your parents coming? I'll go downstairs to pick them up."
