He raised an eyebrow, a flicker of something unreadable in his gaze. "Jessica? Come in. It's been a long time."

She felt a rush of heat to her face.

He gestured to a chair. "So, what brings you here?"

Jessica sat, her mind racing, struggling to reconcile the past with the present. The very idea of it was almost too much to process.
