jessa gives up on humanity

Jessa decided to go back out the the beach and read for a while. It seems like that is her favorite thing to do nowadays.

She grabbed her book and towel and headed out.


When she got outside, Jessa saw Sara, supposedly laying out in the sun. That couldn't be good.


As Jessa came nearer Sara asked, "Emily, is that you coming?"


"Um, no, it's me, Jessa." She replied. "And why are you waiting for Emily?" "Oh, she's -- here she comes!"


Emily came from the house, wearing an apron and carrying a glass of pink lemonade.


"Here you go, Miss Alcott," Emily said, handing Sara the lemonade. "Thanks, Emily."


"Is there anything I can get you, Miss McConnell?" Emily asked Jessa.

"No, of course not, Emily. And you shouldn't let Sara boss you around like that."

 
"Okay." Emily left without another word. She seemed glad to be rid of her servant-ly duties.
 
 
After Emily left, Jessa admonished Sara. "You know, you really shouldn't boss Emily around like that. She's your sister, not your servant!"
 
 
"Uh, Jesus said to have a servant's heart. So Emily has a servant's heart for me!"
 
 
Jessa left exclaiming, "Ugh! I give up on humanity!"
 
 

"Yeah, I don't see what her problem is either."


{Sorry the pictures are so bad, I'm still trying to figure out this sun.}
