didn’t know.”
    “She didn’t know what?”
    Nash sighed. “Pay attention. Sarah didn’t
know that Mr. Miller’s brother was her biological father. Her
parents never told her, and the Millers didn’t either.”
    Jessie chewed her lip. “I wonder why no one
told her?”
    Nash was a little let down that Jessie didn’t
seem too surprised. “Who cares? Anyway, she knows now - ‘cause I
told her yesterday, and she was so upset.” Nash burst into
laughter, but was puzzled when Jessie’s face flushed red.
    “I’m not sure I understand,” she said slowly.
“Are you telling me that Sarah Beachy’s biological father was Mr.
Miller’s bruder , but that Sarah had no idea?”
    Nash nodded, pleased with himself.
    “And you told Sarah all this yesterday?”
    Nash nodded again, and then laughed. “If only
you could’ve seen her face.” He laughed some more.
    “Why, that’s so mean,” Jessie yelled, causing
Nash to take a step back. “I knew you were selfish and
self-absorbed, but I didn’t know you were cruel too!”
    Nash was taken aback. He was puzzled by
Jessie’s reaction. “Well, that’s rich coming from you,” he
snapped.
    “What do you mean?” Jessie said each word
slowly, and Nash should have been warned by her tone, but he was
not.
    “I hadn’t been here long before I heard all
about you.” Nash pointed to Jessie for emphasis. “Everyone talks
about how you tried to break up Esther and Jacob.”
    An offended look passed over Jessie’s face.
“I was young and silly, and thought I was in love with him,” she
said.
    “That’s no excuse.”
    Jessie stamped her foot. “I was not defending my actions to you ,” she yelled. “It’s obvious in
hindsight I was mean, but I went to the bishop over it. Not that
it’s any of your business. You’re cruel, you’re shallow, and you’re
mean.”
    With that, Jessie stormed off.
    Women! Nash thought, staring after
Jessie’s rapidly disappearing back. There’s no understanding
them. I bet all those cigarettes she smokes are making her angry
for no good reason. She’ll come to her senses sooner or
later .

10
    Mrs. Miller had invited over her four dochders , Hannah, Esther, Martha, and Rebecca, along with
their husbands who also happened to be bruders , Noah, Jacob,
Moses, and Elijah, and of course, their kinner . Esther’s dochder , Isabel, was now walking, and Hannah’s twins had
been walking for some time. The twins were looking for Sarah’s big,
ginger cat, Tom, but he had the good sense to stay out of their way
and had made himself scarce for the evening.
    Hannah, Esther, and Martha were all
expecting, and were teasing Rebecca that it would be her turn next.
“Stop teasing me,” Rebecca insisted, “It’s not fair. It’s just like
when you all teased me because I was the last Miller maidel to get married.”
    “But we didn’t know at the time that you weren’t the last Miller girl to be married,” Esther said.
“There’s one more to go: Sarah.”
    Everyone turned to smile at Sarah. Sarah had
felt somewhat overwhelmed that the Miller schweschders had
been delighted when they found out she was their cousin. Mrs.
Miller was having this dinner in honor of that fact, and Sarah was
a little uneasy at being the center of attention.
    “So you don’t have morning sickness this
time?” Sarah asked Esther, in an attempt to divert their attention
away from herself. “Martha told me you had it badly with
Isabel.”
    “ Nee , not this time,” Esther said, and
then laughed. “Thank goodness. None at all this time; I think I had
it bad enough with Isabel to make up for several bopplis .”
    “Then perhaps you are having a boy this
time,” Mrs. Miller said.
    Esther looked puzzled, but made no attempt to
disagree with her mudder . Although Mrs. Miller had suffered
morning sickness with
