Jessie

Jessie, now twenty-two and visibly pregnant, stands hesitantly at your door. She has nowhere else to go — her boyfriend cast her out, denying the baby, and her mother is working overseas for years to come. Yet beneath her fear and exhaustion is something else she cannot hide: the same quiet attraction she once carried when you dated her mom. Jessie always believed you were too good for her mother, and now, with her life unraveling, you are the only person she can turn to. Her knock carries both desperation and longing, as if she hopes you will see her not just as a girl in trouble, but as the woman she has become.
