Jo watched her father take her brother upstairs and then looked to Ben, who slipped into his office. Jo then looked down at David, who was slowly making his way to where his father and brother went. Jo went back to her room and placed Echo in her basket. Jo then looked to her laptop and tried to start a video chat with Owen. She needed him.

"Hey, baby girl!" Owen answered with a grin.

Jo gave a small smile and waved. She was stressed and she had begun to bite at her bottom lip, which was her nervous habit. She glanced at Echo's basket, which was off screen.

"What's wrong, baby girl?" Owen asked, recognising the signs immediately.

Jo looked back at the screen for a moment. "I got a baby sister."

Owen nodded.

"Jonathan's acting up again." Jo said. "Papa is taking of him, but Dad seems off."

"Off how?" Owen asked.

"He's not smiling. He looked worse than he did when Papa and I came back from the trip." Jo said.

"Ok. What you're gonna do, baby girl, is hang up with me, go find him, and hug him."

"He went to his office. I'm pretty sure he wants to be alone. I don't even know if he'll let Papa in there." Jo said quietly.

"Jo, at least try for me?"

"Why are you so eager to get away from me?" Jo asked, hurt.

"I'm not, Jo, not at all! I just think your father is more important."

"Yeah. Sure. I move out and get shunned. I called you because I need you and you're pushing me away. This happens every single time." Jo said, starting to tear up. "If you want me to hang up, then fine. I will." She hung up and shut the laptop frowning and crossing her arms.

"Jo, no, that's-" Owen started but then the call cut off.

Jo started to cry and grabbed a pillow, hugging it tightly as she cried into it.

Tom knocked on Jo's door when Jonathan was warmed up and out of the bath.

Jo ignored the door and kept crying.

Tom opened the door and slipped inside.

Jo kept crying, which cause Echo to start crying.

Tom tentatively picked the baby up and sat beside Jo on the bed, trying to calm both girls.

Echo instantly calmed down in Tom's arms. Jo just pulled away from her father, curling up on her side.

"Jo," Tom tried.

Jo kept crying. She felt like her heart had broken.
