Miss Cora smiled brightly.  "That sets it then.  Sit yourselves down and I will bring it to the table there."  She became all busy quickly getting the cups and some biscuits on a plate.  Mrs. Pearson brought over the cream, sugar, and spoons, as Miss Cora sat the cups out. 

"How old are you Miss Delilah?"  Miss Cora asked as she went back to pour some hot water into a teapot. "I am a busybody, just to let you know."  She chortled happily as she brought the teapot over to sit it down.

"That she is."  Mrs. Pearson laughed.  "Just tell her to mind her own business when she pushes too much, we all do."  She joked, well sort of joked, as she sat down.
