Clare overwhelmed by the room full of people, “Oh.”
She looked at the girl, not knowing what else to say, luckily Nathan intervened, hugging her, “Hey sleeping beauty has finally woke up.”
She hugged him back, speaking softly, “You’re ok, did you see Calub?”

She bumped Tash, “OW, where're your manners.”
She ignored her, and walked around the table towards him, “Is it really you? You're all grown up.”
