The Heart Never Lies

DNA

JADE

As we wait for Maria to return with the things Pezza wore the day their mother found her, I can't seem to figure out what happened to her. If she's the real Perrie, how did she get here in Spain without me knowing?

I sigh and massage my forehead. Even though I try hard to think, I have no idea what's going on. I look at Lucia and she smiled at me.

"I'll be honest with you. After you abruptly left after seeing Pezza's picture on the table, something tells me inside that you somewhat know her." She said to me "Then this sister of mine told me that she looks exactly like your wife."

"Do you think they are related?" I asked "I don't know Jade. You tell me. We don't know anything about her" I wanted to tell her everything I know but Maria already came back with a medium size box then a small one on the top.

She places it on the table and sits on her chair "That's everything." Maria said to me. The two girls look at me and wait for what I'll do next but I can't seem to move.

"Jade? Are you going to open the boxes or not?" Leigh-anne asked me "Uhm yeah. Just give me a minute" I answered then I stand up from my chair and pull the medium box towards me.

"What's inside?" I asked Maria and Lucia "The clothes she wore that day. Her shoes and a wallet I think." Maria answered, I nod my head as I open the box and saw some clothes in there but to my surprise it's not the kind of clothes Perrie would wear. As for the wallet, it doesn't contain anything that can help us identify the real Pezza.

"This is not hers." I said and showed it to Jesy and Leigh-anne and they agreed with me "She's more of a tomboy and hates to wear dress like this" Jesy said. Maria and Lucia looks at each other.

"Are you sure about that?"

"Absolutely! But that doesn't mean a thing right?" I asked "Why don't you open the other box" Leigh-anne said I took the smaller box and opens it and then my heart starts to beat faster.

"She wore that necklace, bracelet and the ring you found the day Mama saw her too" Jesy and Leigh went to my side and look at the necklace "It's the same necklace she's wearing" Jesy said.

Perrie wore the same type of necklace on the day of the accident "I gave this to her on the day we started dating" I smiled when I remembered how happy she is that day "It has my initials. JT" I added.

I look at the bracelet and it's also the same like the one she's wearing. I thought after seeing her things, I can find answers to some of the questions I had in mind but it only make things complicated. I sit on the chair while staring at her things.

"So what now, Jade?" Lucia asked me "I don't know. I don't know what to think anymore. They have the same things except for the ring but that doesn't prove anything." I answered.

"What do you want to prove anyway? That they are related to each other?" Maria asked me "No. It's more than that. I want to explain it to both of you but we don't have enough time for that."

"There's another way to know if they are related but I do have a question first."

"Go ahead Maria, you can ask my anything." Lucia looks at her and same goes with Jesy and Leigh-anne "Does she have a twin sister?"

"Yes. Her name is Patricia Edwards; we call her Patty for short. They are fraternal twins but she already died 6 years ago" I answered "Fraternal? Means they have different features right?" Lucia asked me and I nod my head.

"If you're thinking of a DNA testing, that won't answer anything. Even though they are fraternal and share 50% of DNA from both mother and father and can figure out who's who, we have two girls who are lookalike here and that don't make them fraternal at all."
