"What's wrong with you?"
Brenda looked at Jason as he came through the door and continued her pacing. She was wringing her hands and biting the corner of her lip which clued Jason into her nervousness.
"Brenda, relax! You want to tell me what's going on?" Jason peered down at her with a concerned look across his face.
"Um, okay, well.." Brenda continued to pace around the room. "Alright, you know, I went to the Quartermaines to visit today and on the way home I decided to pass by the docks for a while just to get some fresh air. Well, I was rounding the corner and I stopped.because I saw two people talking." She stopped and looked at Jason, biting the corner of her lip. She didn't know if it was a good idea to tell him what she overheard.
"Who was it?" Jason stared at her, waiting for her reply.
She spoke in a low voice. "Carly.and.Lorenzo Alcazar." She watched his reaction and quickly started again. "You know, I really didn't mean to eavesdrop, I was going to walk away, I swear, but it was too late I had already heard something that's pretty major."
"What is it, Brenda? What did you hear?" Jason noticed that she was unsure of whether or not she should tell him what it was that she overheard.
"You know what? No, it's, it's nothing, actually, I mean it's really not that big of a deal. Just, just forget it. I'm going to go upstairs." Brenda began for the stairs but Jason grabbed her arm.
Jason spoke in a soft voice. "Brenda, it's alright. You can tell me. What is it that you overheard?"
Brenda looked up at Jason and took a deep breath. "Carly told Lorenzo that she was in love with him."
Jason took a step back at Brenda's words. He was afraid that this was going to happen. He almost saw it coming.
"What do we do?"
"Nothing, Brenda. We do nothing."
Brenda took a step towards him. "Nothing? Jason, what do you mean we do nothing? This is a pretty big deal and I think that Sonny should-" She was cut off by Jason.
"It's not in our place to do anything, Brenda. It's none of our business."
"Well, yeah, that's kind of true, but Jason, Sonny deserves to know that his wife is in love with another man!."
"And that's up to his wife to tell him!"
Brenda looked at him as if he were insane. "Are you serious? How many times has Carly hurt and betrayed Sonny before? And you're willing to just stand by and watch her do it again? Jason, when Lily found out that I was planning to wear the wire she went straight to him and told him. And he was grateful for that! He'd be grateful for this too!"
Jason took a few steps towards her wearing a stern look on his face. "No, Brenda. You stay out of this. It is not up to you to save Sonny."
Brenda shook her head slightly. "You don't understand Jason, you don't understand my relationship with Sonny. I want to spare him from pain because when he hurts I hurt. We're connected like that, we always have been. And we always will be. Nothing can change that."
Jason looked at her, almost shocked. "Are you still in love with him, Brenda?"
Brenda seemed a bit stunned at his question. "I will always love Sonny, Jason."
"Brenda, he's married and he has a family. He has a good life and he's happy. You promised me you weren't going after him."
"And I've told you repeatedly that I'm not! I would never try to take Sonny away from his family and his happiness. But the point is his wife is in love with another man, and I think he should know about it!"
Jason sighed deeply and rubbed his hand across his face. "That's between Carly and Sonny. It has nothing to do with you, so stay out if it! Promise me you're going to leave it alone."
Brenda shook her head and looked away from him. "Fine."
"Good. Now, I have to go. Try and stay out of trouble, alright?"
Brenda let out a sarcastic laugh. "I'm not a child, Jason."
Jason watched her for a minute then proceeded out the door. Brenda fumed for a few moments before heading up the stairs. She only made it half way before the door opened and a female voice called out.
"Jason!" Carly yelled as she walked into the penthouse.
Brenda recognized the voice even before turning around and she let out a groan. She turned to face Carly.
"Don't you knock?"
Carly flashed her an annoyed look. "Where's Jason?"
"Obviously not here." Brenda walked back down the stairs, shaking her head in annoyance.
"Why are you here anyway?" Carly folded her arms across her chest and glared at Brenda.
Brenda laughed. "What you didn't miss me?" She plastered a fake smile across her face.
Carly rolled her eyes. "There's nothing left for you here. Jax has moved on and Sonny sure as hell has. Why don't you just go back to Europe?"
"What, and let you destroy Sonny's life once again?" Carly pointed a finger at Brenda. "You have no place in Sonny's life."
Brenda stepped towards her. "And you sure as hell shouldn't."
"I'm his wife! I have every place in his life."
Brenda nodded her head and glared back at Carly. "Yeah, yeah, his wife that's in love with another man."
Carly took a small step back and couldn't help but gasp.
Brenda continued. "That's right. I know all about you and your feelings for Lorenzo Alcazar. Get out of Sonny's life before you destroy him completely."
Carly collected herself. "Look, Brenda, you have no right to interfere-"
Brenda interrupted her. "I don't want to hear it. Get out, Carly." Brenda turned away from her and rushed up the stairs. She heard the slamming of the door before she entered her bedroom.
Brenda looked at Jason as he came through the door and continued her pacing. She was wringing her hands and biting the corner of her lip which clued Jason into her nervousness.
