That was Rachel.
Rachel watched Janet stammering and trailing behind her like a shadow for a full hour.
Amused yet exasperated, she tapped Janet’s head affectionately with her fork.
“You’re so much like your sister.”
“Whenever she had something on her mind, it was written all over her face. You two really are sisters.”
Hearing Rachel mention her sister so openly now, Janet’s eyes grew

“Such a wonderful girl, my daughter… killed so young. And even in death, she’s left without a shred of dignity.”
“Janet, I’m begging you–protect yourself.”
“Who knows what’s gotten into Justin lately? But if he betrayed you once, he could do it again.”
