Ophelia fiddled with her fingers while she waited for John b to sit down.
"Ok, so what did you mean about my dad and your mom" he said as he sat down. Ophelia didn't want to tell him the whole story, about her being and orphan, she got clouded with her thoughts that she didn't notice John b and JJ staring at her.
"Oh sorry I just don't know how to explains everything" she looked down.
"Hey, it's ok you can trust us, we're good people" he smiled and laid a hand on her knees to comfort her. Ophelia thought for a bit. She really did need to tell someone else how she was feeling with everything she had been through, she finally gave in.
"Um ok this is quite a long story but. My mother committed suicide when I was ten and I got put into this really cruel orphanage. They would hit you and drag you by you hair. Hey even made us cut the grass with scissors. My best friend Dean and I escaped from it a few days ago. And we now live in my mothers old home. I was looking through her old books and found her diary." Ophelia had tears falling softly from her eyes, while she held up the diary for the boys to see.
" I haven't read all of it, but when I was reading some pages. The name ward was repeated. And something about this guy named big John" she looked at John b.
John b and JJ both shared a confused look and stared back at the girl.
"Ward threatened my mother saying something about gold. She also wrote down that big John went missing." Ophelia sighed and Opened the diary for the boys to see.
John b held his hand out and took the diary. His eyes scanned though the book. He looked some what confused yet surprised.
"Ophelia" he spoke. He looked down at her name on one of the pages.
"That's me" she smiled at him
"Y-your mom. N-no this can be true." He called
"W-what's wrong?" She questioned now she was the one confused.
"Do you have a dad?" He questioned.
"I- um well my dad was never around so I don't remember him" she looked away.
"Do you have a mother" she asked him.
"N-no she- she was never around either." He spoke. Ophelia looked down at her sea shell ankle bracelet. And looked towards John b's ankle.
She saw the other half of the exact same sea shell.
