After settling Cole Kensington in, Faye Yardley went into the training room.
By the time she came out, it was already evening.
After washing up and changing, Faye Yardley came downstairs to find only Willow Yardley busy at the dining table. Blackwood meowed and bounded over, and she caught him with outstretched hands.
"Aren't Eamon and Cole Kensington eating?"
"They both said they'd handle it themselves. I put some food in each of their refrigerators for them."
Faye Yardley didn't press the issue. She wasn't one to force others to eat with her. This was good, too; everyone could do as they pleased.
"Sister, it'll be August 1st in a few more hours. The general mood is a little strange. Some people are excited and looking forward to it, others are heartbroken and crying, and some are torn about whether to bring anyone over, since many are still just struggling to survive themselves."
