Jessica's Will
by Kent R Brown
Synopsis
It is the end of summer and Jessica is going in for tests.
Michelle, in her 20s, has come to assist in putting her high-spirited grandmother's affairs in order.
"Just shut the suitcase," she tells Michelle as they pack for the trip to the hospital, "and close the latch.
That's what I suspect they'll do…open me up, see that everything is a damn mess, and simply close the latch."
But Jessica's will has little to do with who gets the antique china.
In unravelling a complex tapestry of lifelong dreams and deceptions, Jessica and Michelle bequeath to each other intimate, and sometimes painful, gifts of love.
Intertwined throughout the scenes is a young girl who, both real and imagined, enters their world and revitalizes their mutual love of life.
