Spencer looked up from her book as she heard the door to The Brew open. She locked eyes with the girl who entered. She had a similar face to her own surprisingly. The girl was sporting a choppy medium length hair cut. Her hair wasn't quite brown, but a touch too dark to be blonde. She had intense blue eyes. She had a commanding presence. Spencer oddly couldn't take her eyes,off of her. The girl looked at her like she knew her. It was strange. Spencer didn't mean to eavesdrop on her phone conversation, but The Brew was pretty empty.
"Gabe...you need to call me. I'm in Rosewood. We can talk to Tanner...I'll tell her the truth. That you were helping me. You didn't do anything wrong. I appreciate your help, but now it looks like you were messing with other things. Maybe we can get you off suspension. Just call me, okay?" Spencer's interest was piqued. She was obviously talking to Holbrook. How was she connected with all of this?
The girl sat down at a table and pulled out a tablet. She was furiously typing something when the door opened again and in walked Jason Dilaurentis. He nodded at Spencer and approached the girl that Spencer had taken so much interest in.
"Colette?" Jason asked. She stood up and smiled.
"Please, call me Cole" She shook his hand. Jason gave her a small smile back.
"Okay Cole. Here is the 6 month lease. Sign this and I'll give you your keys. If you decide that you're going to stay long term, let me know and we can adjust the lease." Colette signed the papers Jason had put in front of her. "Here's your copy of the lease and my business card. If you need anything, give me a call. I know how hard it can be when you're new in town and don't really know anyone."
"Thanks Jason...I really appreciate you doing a short term lease for me until I know if I'm going to stay for good."
"You said that you're here to find your sister?"
"Yes...my half sister. It's a long story. But she doesn't know we're sisters. So I'm planning on feeling out the situation before I drop the bomb on her."
"Bomb?"
"My sister doesn't know that I exist. My mother and father- I was a product of an affair. My mother didn't want me. My father and I lived in Europe for a while and then back in the states. He married my step mother. I recently found out that I had some siblings and a friend of mine helped me find them." Cole paused. "I can't believe I just told you all of that. I barely even know you."
"It's okay." Jason gave her a warm smile. "Sometimes it feels good to tell someone you barely know your story." Cole laughed. Truthfully- he was taken back by her revelation. Her story was so similar to his.
"You're easy to talk to. I appreciate it. I'll call you if I need anything. Thanks again." Jason nodded and stood up.
"We'll talk soon."
Spencer sat back in awe. She watched Colette put her tablet back into her bag and approach the counter. After she paid, she took her coffee to go, glancing at Spencer as she left. It shouldn't surprise Spencer that someone had parents that were lying to them. This town was built on secrets. The newest one...someone in Rosewood had a secret sister.
