Emily didn't insist on forcing her money on Mariel, it would simply be a matter of returning the favour the next time, after all it was implied that there would be a next time in the woman's response. Something Emily found she didn't object to. "Sure, thanks," she replied swiftly before pocketing the cash again and waiting patiently as Mariel saw to their order.
Cynthia... Emily felt sorry for her already. She knew she wasn't the best company, silences were what she did best, and so the stiff silence between them now was to be expected. Though she was sitting and seemingly enjoying the relaxed atmosphere of the cafe, she had her eyes and ears elsewhere. Jorge's presence was not forgotten, along with his red-headed company. She felt the looks she was getting, but wasn't fazed by them... yet. Then of course there was Bennett, she noted his movements but disregarded them quickly.
Left to her thoughts, a mental checklist of the never ending things to-do in the day, the week and beyond, Emily considered what the weekend might hold for her. She was adamant on getting some work done at home on Saturday at the least, if even only for a half day, but then Sunday would be free for welcome distractions.
