"Yeah. Uncle Charlie's in another town for the next few days, helping a friend out. And Mommy was taking two of my brothers out somewhere, so Bailey had to take me with him when he was going out. He said he had to catch an early fairy to this one part of the city, but there was only a boat." Ebony explained with a shrug.

'Zuba nodded, listening to the younger one's explaination. "Fairy boat?" she asked, wondering if it was a boat with wings or something. If it was, then that was awesome! If not...eh. "Was fun?" she asked, curious. She'd never been on a boat before; it seemed interesting.

"That's what I was hoping for but it was just a regular boat. Bailey said I had the wrong kind of fairy but what other kinds are there?" she blinked a few times before shrugging. "Yeah, it was okay. It was nice enough to ride even though it was slow and wasn't a fairy."

"Different?" 'Zuba suggested, not quite sure how many other kinds there were, if any. She listened quietly, like any good listener should. "Want to ride...seen before." she commented, smiling. "Lucky."

"Well there's one that leaves from out behind the mall and it's not too expensive. Maybe you could ask your Mommy to take you on a ride?"

'Zuba smiled, nodding. "I ask." she said, deciding it would be a perfect opportunity to practice the "Please" game. She then thought of something. "Want hot chocolate?" she asked, pointing across at one of the cafes situated in the food court.

"Sure. That sounds nummy." the smaller one agreed, nodding her head.

'Zuba smiled, nodding once before jumping off the jungle gym. Sure, Mother had said to stay here, but she wouldn't mind if she left to get something to drink, would she? Of course not. She smiled over at Ebby, waving her over.

Ebony bounced down from the jungle gym and followed after Zuba. The other girl was bigger and knew better, plus she was near enough to be able to see Bailey and get his attention if he came by for her again. So it was okay.

'Zuba waited to the younger girl caught up before heading off towards the counter. She had just enough allowance left for three hot chocolates, which meant she could get one later. She looked at the lady at the cash register, ordering the two drinks before stepping to the side to wait. "Looks yummy, huh?" she asked Ebby, motioning to some of the deserts in the display case.

"Yeah. They tend to be good. I could check if I've got anything on me so we could get one if you'd like." Ebby offered. She honestly didn't understand why almost everyone she seemed to meet wanted to buy her stuff. Did she have some sort of aura of 'I am cute and loveable, you should get me a treat?'. Oh well, at least it usually meant she got to have more conversation with the people she met.

"If you want one." she said, nodding once. She didn't need one, but if the younger child wanted one, who was she to stop her? She reached up, getting the hot chocolates as they were sat on the counter and handing one to the younger girl. "Here." she said simply, smiling slightly at the younger girl and handing her the drink. "Sit here or playground?"

Ebby grinned. "Thank you." she replied, taking the warm cup. "We can stay here if you like. I don't think we're allowed to take stuff like this in there. Anyway, we can see if someone comes by looking for us from here."

"Welcome." 'Zuba said with a nod. "Stay here. Watch for adults." she said, pointing to herself as she said the last part. How she intended to do that without knowing what this Bailey person looked like was another question. She smiled slightly, taking a seat at the nearest empty table, pushing a chair out for Ebby with her foot.

"Okies. My big brother is tall and red and wearing a yellow suit so if you see him, tell me. He's also got a ponytail." the girl explained with a nod. Sitting down, she now took her time to pay attention to the odd details of Zuba once more. "Your skin is really neat, did I tell you that before? I get forgetful. But it's pretty and I like it."
