The only thing that kept the little girl from huffing her discontent was the fact they were getting ice-cream now , then her mummy promised they would head home.

Emmerson took the bags out to the seating area while her mother stayed in line. It sure was crowded today, it was a wonder there were any seats left.

It took some looking, but she managed to find a table facing the equally busy streets. Without a second's hesitation, Emm hurried over, cutting off a woman and her child as they were about to sit. When told they'd been about to take the seat, Emmerson did little more than turn in the other direction and run a hand through her tangled hair, as if no one had spoken at all.

When the younger child tried screaming, the 11 year old made a point of fixing him with a rotten look and telling him things her mummy said were okay to say if people got on your nerves. The woman didn't like it, but she took her child and went to sit elsewhere.

Hpmh. Some people.
The sun was hitting peak sweaty-saturation in the sky, and Phoebe was already tired of peeling her sundress off of the small of her back. She was disgusting, and she needed the tallest glass of lemonade in the world. Or maybe six scoops of ice cream in a waffle cone, even if that sounded sticky.

She settled on ONE scoop with sprinkles, in a cup to preserve her hands, and emerged back into the sun with her prize. Her eyes took ages to adjust to the brightness, and when she could see again, she found herself watch Emm bully an adult and child into giving up their table. That's the spirit, kiddo.

"Hi." Phoebe settled herself across from Emm and toasted the younger girl with her cup of ice cream. "You've been shopping!"
