Mable happily returned Father Brennan's wave and made her way back inside the hotel only after he turned and left. Quietly, she made her way through the hallway to the room designated to her and her brother. The door had remained unlocked, and she was able to easily slip inside.
Against the wall adjacent to the door, the cloth napkin and pebbles remain where they had been tossed before. Toeing off her boots, Mable made her way to clean them up before she'd take a proper bath and warm up, but paused. She tilted her head this way and that before smiling.
Ah. There was the cat, sleeping soundly that Father Brennan had seen.
The girl picked up the napkin carefully so as not to disturb her pebbles and placed it delicately on the table. She would name the cat Bren, she decided.
