"Cela" Kayla croaked softly and she quickly cleared her throat. "That's good to hear" she turned to the fudge and started to put some into bags. "Then what were you doing then?"
"Oooh Kayla I know you are happy to see me but don't cry! Tears are for when you are sad." Celandine said helpfully, noting the expression on Kayla's face and interpreting it innocently.
"Oh." Cela hadn't thought up an excuse, "Just looking. Looking can't hurt right? And then I saw you and I saw Anna and I
had to say hello!" Cela smiled brightly and turned slightly to smile at Anna too.
"Oh my goodness! Kayla guess what! I got an owl! I think Cleo likes my owl." Cela added with a grin. "Cleo has missed you."
