"Congratulations. I hope everything works itself out soon." he gazed at the woman for a moment, compassion flickering in his eyes for just a second, but then he turned away and picked up one of the heads so he could take his turn and give her space to think. Bowling it down the lane, he watched it hit five pins and straightened up to pick up another head for his next turn. Bowling that one too, he missed the pins because his mind was on what he would possibly say to Jack. He stepped back to let Elizabeth take her turn. Elizabeth gave him a light smile, "Thanks, Charles." She saw the compassion that had flickered into his eyes and it touched her. Eliza was amazed that Charles would let it show he had compassion at all. Elizabeth watched him bowl. Even when Charles was distracted, he was still better at bowling than Elizabeth is. Eliza took a head and rolled it. She only hit one pin. She took another and rolled it. Elizabeth hit three pins that time. Eliza stepped back to let Charles take his turn as she started to think again.
