Sophia was in a meeting, listening to the presentation on their latest marketing strategy for upcoming products, when her phone buzzed. She sneaked a look and saw a message.
[Sarah]: "Video chat tonight. We found something worth sharing."
Sophia raised her eyebrows and smiled before keeping her phone down and getting her attention back to the marketing director who was presenting his idea nervously. He saw CEO Hill smile and was encouraged, thinking that her smile is because she likes his presentation.

JoAnna got out of shower, looking fresh in a t-shirt and yoga pants. She grabbed an apple from the kitchen island and took a bite while looking through the window. It's a sunny day with few clouds and a great visibility allowing her to enjoy the view of the Cascade Range in the distance.
JoAnna started thinking about the strange man from room 412... Why was he so persistent to know her name? It appeared that he wanted to know more about her... why? And why did his profile look familiar... for a moment, while she watched him, her mind tricked her to think that it's Aiden... 'Ouch! If Sarah finds out that a stranger reminded me of my brother-in-law, who knows what she might think... I don't have an infatuation with my brother in law so that I see him in other people! I was just very drowsy, and my mind was not clear. That explains it.'
JoAnna remembered that in the hospital she noticed his heart shaped birthmark and words 'big J' came out of her mouth. Why did she say that? She shook her head, trying to disperse her thoughts. Why would she think about him? 'It's useless and a waste of time. He is just a patient, and he already went back to his life... we will not meet again. Anyway, he has such a grouchy personality... He does not deserve any woman to think about him even for a second.' But she could not deny that he is very handsome. And for a moment, just for a brief moment in that hotel room she wished that he wants her to stay longer.
JoAnna's phone buzzed, and she saw a message.
[Sarah]: "Video chat tonight. We found something worth sharing."
"Seems that Sarah is back in business.", JoAnna said to herself and took another bite of the apple.
She started thinking what will she do now... she has few hours until their regular chat time. Maybe she can watch a movie? Or binge watch something on Netflix?
…
It was close to nine in the evening, and JoAnna turned on her PC and joined video chat. Sophia and Felix were already there. They chatted a bit while waiting for Sarah and Aiden to join.
9:10 PM... "OK. She tells us to join, and she is late...", JoAnna complained.
"I'm sure she is wrapping up something important... let me text her." Sophia said.
9:15... "She still didn't respond." Sophia looked at the phone.
"I'm calling her.", JoAnna was losing her patience.
Sarah's phone rang until the end and reached voicemail. JoAnna hanged up and called again... it rang for a while before Sarah picked up. "What?!"
JoAnna tried to suppress her anger, but she was not successful. "Don't you what me... we are waiting for you... didn't you say that we have a video conference tonight?"
"Oh…", Sarah hanged up.
JoAnna's expression became livid. "She hung up on me!"
Sophia found JoAnna's expression amusing, but she was also annoyed that Sarah is late. Still, as an oldest sister, she needs to keep her composure. "I'm sure she is coming online.", Sophia pacified JoAnna.
A minute later, Sarah joined. Both Sophia and JoAnna understood why she is late when they saw her messy hair, and flushed cheeks that were completed with her red swollen lips that could not stop smiling.
"Hi, sorry I'm late...", Sarah cleared up her throat.
"Are we disturbing you?", JoAnna asked while grimacing.
"No, no... Why do you think so?" Sarah tried to keep a straight face, but she could not help smiling.
"Because your t-shirt is upside down!", JoAnna said through her teeth.
"Oh!" Sarah looked down at herself and her cheeks got even more red. She quickly stood up and got out of the view of the camera.
"Can you believe this?", JoAnna fumed.
"Well, at least we know why she was late...", Sophia chuckled, and her hand landed on Felix's knee and started moving upward slowly, outside of the view of the camera. Felix glanced down and then at Sophia... he could not believe what she is doing. He swallowed hard when he felt her nails press against his inner thigh. JoAnna saw that Felix stiffened up his body, and wanted to ask about it, but at that moment Sarah returned in the view and distracted her.
"Where is brother in law?", JoAnna asked.
"He is coming..." Sarah glanced to the side.
"Oh, I think he was coming, but we interrupted you...", JoAnna teased.
Sarah was red from embarrassment. "You! ... Put some filter on that mouth!"
JoAnna was laughing. "I could not miss on this opportunity... it was like you asked me to burn you..."
Sophia shook her head helplessly and turned to Felix whose eyes were glued to her. Sophia tried to explain her sisters. "You see, in our family, Hill sisters divided shamelessness. JoAnna says shameless things... while Sarah is doing them."
Sophia looked like an older sister who is above all the commotion that her younger sisters are causing. Only Felix was aware of her wondering hand.
Both JoAnna and Sarah were ready to attack Sophia when they heard Felix ask, "How about you?"
"Huh?", Sophia kept her expression straight.
"You said it's divided between sisters... which part of shamelessness is yours?" His voice was raspy, and he didn't remove his gaze from Sophia. Felix felt her hot palm moving slowly higher which was now touching his throbbing crotch.
Sophia looked at Felix with an innocent expression, while Sarah and JoAnna tried to figure out what is going on.
Aiden pulled a chair next to Sarah and got into the view of the camera. "What did I miss?"
Sophia noticed that Aiden joined and cleared her throat. "We can begin it seems...." Her lips curved slightly upwards while she glanced at Felix.
