"Oh Shane, I am oh so sorry!" She said in a tiny voice. "I am looking for Roy, poor Olivia is up to her eyeballs trying to take care of her own boy and Roy's brother, Ray." Her cheeks were as pink as her hair, for she hadn't actually ever flown into a man before, nor said that much to a man at one time before. Now as she looked him down from head to toe, she saw he was wearing rather ragged clothing, but it suited him, made him look almost gentle,in a funny way. Charlotte had always somewhat admired Shane in a way- helping people get things they actually need. Unlike her, who only taught girls to dance. How helpful was that?

Soleil almost smacked herself in the head. "No, don't bother, I won't make paste. It won't hold even if it is a tad bit moist." She sighed, then sat down again. Normally she was quite smart, but today, well, was a long day. "If you need me to, I will just hold it up while you tack it. Otherwise I'll just go to bed. I am very tired."

"So sorry, Ray!" exclaimed Olivia as she rung out her shawls and many layers of skirt. "Dear Charlotte should be back soon with your older brother."
Ray looked so lonely, and cold. Olivia had the sudden urge to pick him up and hold him tight in her arms. But before she could let herself do some foolish heart-warming guesture, she said, "Are you still cold?"
