Day out (4)
Shelby's face contorted into a frown as she heard the voice. Despite her reluctance, she slowly turned to face her other friend, locking her gaze with theirs. However, instead of talking to the new person, she turned her attention back to Ava.
"What is she doing here, Ava?" She said, refusing to direct her words at Brianna.
Ava sighed. She knew that this would come to pass, but Shelby had always been easy to talk to, and at that moment, Ava was banking on that. Ava had wished that she would have time to talk to Shelby alone before Brianna had shown up, but it was so like Brianna not to follow the time Ava had given her.
Brianna was habitually tardy, prompting Ava to question if she sought friction by arriving early instead, and she was not far off with that assumption.
She turned to Suzie.
"Miss Suzie, please keep an eye on the children. I have to talk to your mistress a bit."
