" Thank you, it will be alright, just a shock to many of us." She did appreciate the arm squeeze though and knew he meant well.

Watching Cami and Broc play together couldn't have been the best medicine that Khara needed. She smiled and laughed as the two seemed to get along nicely. "I think we will have to get these together to play more often." They were so much fun to watch, but soon she was looking back at Javi.

"Is work stressful right now or is something else going on?" She didn't know him to just take a personal day, but he did have a child so that could be the difference in knowing with Khara. She only took them when she was stressed, but she had to remember that when a child was involved things changed, priorities changed and now her eyes were back at Cami and something in her pulled a bit.

"It's a beautiful day to get out and be here."

Javi tried to remember what exactly had been wrong with the niffler - he remembered Khara telling him about it, and knew he had been sick, and there had been...niffler babies or something? Or maybe a mate? He couldn't remember. Khara had so many nifflers to take care of! It was hard to keep them straight! Javi was amazed he remembered even THOSE tiny details, he was lucky most of the time if he remembered to change the cat's liter box before Pepper protested and began to pee on his clothes. "How are the other nifflers doing?" he asked, to be polite mainly. Would they be all upset too? Or not even care? Animals were NOT his forte like Khara.

"Oh, well, it's not work actually, it's..." Alright. Well, this was happening apparently. "Cami's birth mum. Karina. My ex, who gave her up without even telling me she existed," he grumbled. "She finally owled me back, after three years of me asking if she wanted to meet her. Now she does, apparently," he said. The words felt like they were sucking the soul out of him, and it just made him angry to think about her. Again. Not that she had ever really left his mind at all these past few days since he'd first gotten the letter.

He turned to watch Cami again. She had found a good spot to sit and pet Broc's head, even though she kind of...smacked his head, rather than petting it. She was still gentle of course, but it still made him chuckle. She did the same thing to Pepper.
