Mable listened earnestly to the other girl's words, but couldn't help laughing them off when she was finished. Anne was so nervous, and Mable couldn't understand why, but she was also very nice and Mable was enjoying their conversation - even if she felt like she was missing something in it.
"I'm used to splinters and soiled clothes, Miss Anne, and I have no plans for the day. Just exploring town!" Exploring town alone, at that. As she made her way through streets and alleys and along the river, Mable hadn't talked with anyone her age. Until now, that is.
"I would be looking for some work, or a tutor, but I cant keep myself focused when there's so much yet to see in town! And I don't think my brother or I need a job very urgently just yet. A very nice man has paid for us to stay at a hotel by the river, do you know Father Brennan? Well, anyway, the only thing I'm doing now is exploring the beach. I've already fallen quite in love with it, I think."
