“Okay, so this pumpkin spice latte… I don’t hate it, but I don’t necessarily love it either. Why do people love it so much? Is there some sort of secret ingredient in which certain people absolutely enjoy it? I don’t get it…”
“I think it’s a matter of getting in the Halloween spirit,” Laurie guessed. She was in agreement with Stephanie there. It was neither hated nor loved by her. “You know how peppermint tastes like Christmas? I suppose pumpkin spice tastes like fall.”

At her genuine words, Eric inevitably let out a chuckle. “Thank you, ma’am.” He spoke with a big and slightly incredulous smile. He most certainly was not a great singer, but it was nice to know at least one person didn’t think he was terrible.
“You are very welcome,” Laurie smiled genuinely. As much as she’d like to build everyone’s confidence, she wouldn’t feed someone compliments that were built on lies. She meant what she said, or she wouldn’t say it.

The surprised praise made his chest warm, and a rush of shyness struck him strongly, in a way hes not use to feeling. Tae still felt a part of himself mad at the ordeal, hoping that this wouldn’t crop up again for Ms. Davis or be any sort of underlying problem they missed because they clean it up. She seemed genuinely glad it was mostly gone though, so he sighed, coiling up the hose and setting it where it belonged.
“I was– well,” he straightened up, shoving both hands into his pockets as his thoughts raced a bit. Could he ask her something out of the blue? She was a mother, and more importantly she was someone he trusted not to judge him. “Do you think there is a good age to leave home?” he sorta blurted and paused, biting his lip around a faint smile, “gosh, that sounded really lame, and you are not a therapist right? But, yeah– sorry, just, it’s been on my mind. It’s why I was heading this way to begin with– thinking about that before I ran into you. It’s kinda coming back to the front again.”
Laurie tilted her head as she waited patiently for Tae to say what he wanted to. She was a little surprised at the question that seemed to come out of nowhere, but she shook her head in response to his apology. He was right, she wasn’t a therapist. But she was a mom, and she cared deeply about the youth of Carthay. She would never mind lending an unbiased ear to any kid that might need one. Call her an honorary mother.
“It didn’t sound lame,” she promised him. “I think the good age to leave home would be when you feel ready.” She knew it was the right decision for herself when she realized that she was excited rather than sad. She’d never been very close to her parents, though, and she’d been a fairly independent teenager, so leaving hadn’t been a big deal. Having her own son move out, that had been a much harder pill to swallow. It helped that she knew it was good for him, and she was so proud. “It’s always going to be a little scary,” she added gently. “But you aren’t starting a new life. You’re only starting a new chapter.”

As Laurie listed out some of the things that she actually loved about her, Cass couldn’t help but place a hand against her heart as she truly was touched by what she was hearing. This wasn’t anything completely new, not at the slightest, but to say that she didn’t feel a bit teary-eyed would be a complete understatement. “And I love how strong you are, how patient and understanding you are and especially how well you deal with me and my spazzy antics.” Cass replied, warmly smiling at Laurie. Game night with Hiro was the best, and the cage owner was looking forward for the next one they have. Hopefully soon. Real soon. “Oh, it was me!” She giggled. “It was a close call on multiple occasions, but I was able to whip it out and beat him in the end! Hiro may be my nephew, but there was noway I was going to go easy on him!” Cass bragged, obviously in a jokingly manner. In truth, Baymax won most rounds somehow, but she couldn’t mention the robot just yet. “That’s nice. What did you two watch?” She asked, only to sigh and nod. “Tell me about it. Sometimes I still see Hiro as a little boy, even though he never actually was a normal little boy.”
Going on and taking a vacation was one of the very last things on Cass’s mind. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to take one, oh heavens no! If she could, she would, but there was just so much that was going on in her life and just the thought of going off on her own without Hiro? It just didn’t sit right to her. Even if she were to take Hiro along with her, the cafe owner wouldn’t even know where to go to first as it has been a very long time since she left for vacation. She didn’t even have Hiro and Tadashi living with her the last time she had one. Oh. Tadashi. The expression within her face deepened. How can she go on one now when knowing that Tadashi wasn’t around anymore? “I don’t know…” The cafe owner trailed off with a tone of uncertainty. The suggestion of going somewhere with Hiro before school began for him again was rather tempting, but— “Hiro has never left Carthay before, so I don’t know how well he would take it if I randomly suggest for us to go somewhere.” Cass stated. “And even if I do decide to take a vacation, where would we go anyways? Certainly not somewhere very fair like another country.”
“Don’t make me cry,” Laurie warned, now placing a hand over her heart. She appreciated Cass’ friendship so much, and she knew the feeling was mutual... but it was touching to hear those words coming directly from her mouth. “You deal with mine, I’ll deal with yours,” she chuckled. Laurie struggled to deal with her own spazziness sometimes. Like when she was cooking, and the knife ended up going into the oven with the pan, and she used two cups of flour too many. If her mind was elsewhere, she was a lost cause. “Well, you can’t! If you let them win, you’re not teaching them anything. Everyone needs to learn how to be better and how to lose with grace.” When her children were younger, she might’ve let them have a win or two, but they were just so cute when they got excited. It beat out her competitiveness. “She’s The Man! Hard to believe that movie is over ten years old. I hadn’t seen it in awhile, but I didn’t think Molly would turn it down, so it was an easy choice.” She smiled talking about her daughter, that night --- it was such a simple thing, eating ice cream and watching a movie together, but it was a memory she would cherish forever. No little moments had been taken for granted since she’d become a mother. “I don’t think that mindset ever goes away. They could be fifty years old and you’d still want to protect them.”
Noticing the look on Cass’ face, Laurie wondered if there was more to it than the excuses she brought up, but if she wanted to tell her, she would. So she didn’t ask. “A staycation?” She offered, shrugging one of her shoulders. “I’m not sure. Sometimes the planning can be more stressful than the trip is relaxing.” That was something she had to admit, she was better off herself unwinding in the comfort of her own home with a good book... or heading off on a beach day trip. “It was only a suggestion,” she said after a moment. “I just worry about you, I worry that you’re not taking enough time for yourself. Especially if you’re feeling a little drained. I know you have a lot of responsibilities, but don’t forget that your own well-being is one of those responsibilities. You can’t take care of other people if you aren’t taking care of yourself as well.”
