"Not that she's illiterate or something," she said quickly, trying to cover herself up, "She just... doesn't. Can't. I guess. Well, not really to me, anyway. Usually she can write letters to me, but just not now. Because I'm at Hogwarts, she can't. Well, she can, but-" Liz stopped there. She was making her mom sound like a complete jerk, which she wasn't. And she had made everything a lot more complicated than it needed to be. Her mom just couldn't write to her right now.
Liz expected Pam to urge her on, so she decided to close the subject, "It's really complicated. I can explain it all some other time. To the lake?" She hoped that her new friend didn't see the glassy tears that were threatening to spill.
ooc: bring on the drama! haha
As soon as Pam had asked her the question, she regretted it. She didn't mean to upset her new friend, she just was curious. Stupid curiosity!!!!
She didn't quite know what to do. But she just gave Liz a hug. "Don't worry about it. When you're ready, just tell me, K? So, to the lake?" She smiled sweetly to Liz. She felt really bad for asking it, but tried not to let it show. As she tried to get her hyper mood back by pulling Liz over to the lake.
ooc: bring it! lol
