Um... Hello?
Elle poked her head through the door hesitantly. It had been such a long time since she had been here, the girl wasn't entirely sure what to expect.
"Um... hello?" She asked, a slight hitch in her voice. "Is anyone here?" Rollo meowed his support, butting against her ankles reassuringly.
"I know it's been a while," the girl said, "But I'm back!"
Ryan was busy in the kitchen when he heard a very familiar small voice call out as she entered his apartment.
"Elle! Welcome Back! And you two Rollo! What great timing! I was just about to start baking, want to help?" Ryan greets them, then asks. He missed them both. "Where have to two been? It just hasn't been the same without you two."
A big grin spread across Elle’s face. She follows Ryan excitedly to the kitchen, an extra spring in her step as she anticipated the activity.
“Oh? I’ve been at school,” Elle said. “Rowan said that it was important for me to ‘develop social connections with my peers while at school.’ But now I’m back!”
Once in the kitchen, Rollo sat in front of the closed fridge and meowed impatiently. It was all well and good that Ryan and Elle had been reunited, but this was cutting into valuable time that could be spent pouring him cream.
Ryan chuckles as he hears the hungry laments of Rollo. "Your in luck, oh Lord of Cats, as I had just pick up a generous amount of fresh cream just this morning." Ryan says to Rollo as he walks over, retrieves a bowl and a carton of cream. Ryan fills the bowl and sets it down for Rollo. He then turns back to Elle. "Ah! Well, Rowan definitely has the right of it. You do need friends that are more your age. Also helps to learn and understand more of this world we live in as well." Ryan says to Elle. He would then get back to slicing up a variable myriad of fruits, while a bowl nearby had dough rising in it.
