"...Hey, you asking bancroft to Sadie Hawkins?"

"I'm worried he won't be able to go" She admits "he's got patrol a lot at teaneck lately." A tilt of her head "I didn't think you were going to go."

"I wouldn't, but Nadeen is, and I don't..." A frown. "I just... I feel like it'd be better if I go. Just in case."

"I'm taking Symon."

"Symon's good back up if things go wrong. keeps hsi eyes peeled he does. Good choice if you're feeling on guard" she approves

"Yeah. And he's safe. No weird ideas."

"There's that" A nod "I think if Bancroft can't make it, I best make sure his feelings won't be hurt if I ask another boy. Lads are people too, they can get feeling stepped on even if you don't mean it."

"Well, I'd ask him first before worrying if he says no."

"Right. Jumping ahead of things. Thanks again. We should probably go out and get ready to greet Symon and or Dirk if they come back with mum"

"Sure. You go, I'll wash these out and catch up." Kerri's training!

"Oh that's not fair of me. I'll help. Two will make the load lighter" And they do
