Thirty-Seven
Realization
"Is that a new shawl, Anissa?" Molly had been sitting in the clinic, helping a very on-edge Jin with some paperwork, when Anissa had strolled in. The pink-eyed woman had been rather surprised to see Molly there, and was just leaving, when Molly had noticed the light pink shawl wrapped around Anissa's shoulders.
"Oh, uh, yes it is! Thank you for noticing!" Anissa said, rather hesitatingly. Molly smiled, but something was itching at the back of her mind. Like a half-remembered inkling, that something wasn't right. And then is hit her: only after Anissa left did she remember that she'd seen that exact shawl in Jin's suitcase right after he came home from the big medical conference he'd attended on the Mainland. She'd assumed it was something he'd bought for Irene, but now that Molly saw it around Anissa's shoulders did she finally realize what was going on. Everything up until then finally made sense. Jin HAD been acting weird, and Molly knew why.
Jin was cheating on her with Anissa.
