JJ's gaze lowered. "I didn't mean to..." she didn't know how to explain it, she really had no good excuse. "Jamie, I just...talking to any of you meant dealing with Mom and Dad and I needed to be my own person.

She looked to her sister and it saddened her to see the obvious hurt. "Jamie I am truly sorry. I shouldn't have left you in the dark."
