"Alright," Tessa nodded.
-
Mr. Ryder smiled and left Tessa and the flabbergasted maid by themselves.
The maid slowly turned to Tessa, her jaw dropped in shock.
"How.. wha.. wh..?" -
Tessa simply shrugged and walked out the door.
-
Jacob was passing by her when she walked out. His eyes met with hers before he rolled his eyes and kept on walking.
-
Tessa assumed that Jacob would be going to his room, but she wasn't sure that he would be ok with her following him. But she also wanted to avoid a certain whiny little girl.
So she waited until he was out of sight before she began walking in the same direction that he was going in. -
Jacob peered around corners, making sure nobody spotted him as he tip-toed down the many different hallways.
Finally, he stopped at a door. It wasn't his bedroom door, it was a black door with a golden rose engraved into it. The door handle was rose gold.
He gently turned the rose gold knob and walked inside the room. -
Tessa peeked around the corner and saw Jacob enter a very ornate door. Now her curiosity was piqued. Once the door had closed, she quietly moved towards it. After waiting a few moments, she slowly and silently opened the door. After passing through it, she closed the door so that only a soft thud would speak to anyone entering after Jacob.

Jacob, who hadn't heard the door close, walked up to a brown box with many pictures littered across it. The pictures were of a little boy who looked exactly like him with a newborn baby whose face’s features were identical to Verona's.
Behind them was a tall, slender, blonde woman with long curly hair. She had dazzling blue eyes. Her pale hand was placed on the boy's shoulder. -
Tessa's eyes widened in surprise. She didn't know what the room would lead to, but she hadn't expected this at all.
-
Jacob gazed down lovingly at the photo's and ran his finger over the woman's face.
"I miss you, Mom.” He whispered. -
Tessa began to slowly and quietly move closer. Unfortunately she tripped over her two feet, making a scuffling sound. She caught herself before she hit the floor, and she bit her lip to keep herself from making a surprised sound, but the damage was done, he had to be deaf in order to not have heard her.
-
Jacob's eyes widened in shock. He spun around on his heel and spotted Tessa. He took a step towards her, glaring at her angrily.
"What are you doing here?" Jacob snapped, grabbing her shoulder. -
"I – I'm sorry," was what Tessa could manage to speak.
-
"Answer my question. What. Are. You. Doing. Here?"
