"How old is your daughter?" You asked getting more dragged into her past life. You were honestly curious about the kind and warm woman. You didn't know much about her so this was your opportunity to get more closer to her by learning more about one another.

"She's a little younger than you, my daughter just a teenager. How old are you again?"

"I'm twenty-three years old."

"Ahh.. then she's seven years younger than you, she's seventeen years old. She works nearby, not too far from here."

You raised your eyebrows at this. "She does? Where does she work?"

"She works at a mall in a clothing store she says that she loves her job and that she had already made a couple of friends there. She even gets discounts on the clothes because she works there," the older lady hummed. "She's a real sweetheart. She's also quiet and shy but once she warms up to you, she'll latch onto you like a locket."

You smiled and let out a breathy laugh. "Awww she sounds so cute."

"Oh, she is," Krone said with a knowing look. "She's beautiful inside and out. I'm glad to call her my granddaughter. In a way, you remind me of her. Maybe that's why I'm so fond of you," she said gesturing to you with her fork and took a sip from her cool drink that was inside of a glass cup.

"She's also close to Ray and Norman, but if I had to choose who she's closer to, I'd say Ray. He treats her like she's his own sometimes."

You raised your eyebrows with a confused look and then you "oh-ed" when it clicks. You remember that she said that she was close to the family so there was no doubt that that was why.

"That's nice to hear. I didn't know that Ray could be soft with someone," you laughed lightly. "What's her name by the way?" You asked taking a sip from your drink.

"Oh. Her name is Jemima," Krone said looking up at you and then taking another bite.

You looked up in wonder. "Huh?... I've heard that name before... Jemima... Jemima..."

"Maybe you have seen her before. Like I said she does work near here. I wouldn't doubt that you've made an encounter with her." Krone took out her phone and went to her gallery and pulled up a current picture of her and you snapped your fingers and smiled.
