"Oh, there is no need to apologize," Abby replied, offering another smile. "It's been over ten years since then." And while she couldn't say that it didn't hurt, Abby didn't dwell on it nowadays quite so much as she used to. At this point, she knew that it wasn't very likely that she would find her-- Abby just hoped that Eleanor was living a decent life. Pulling herself from her thoughts, she looked back to Molly with another gentle smile. "Really, love, it's fine."
Abby made a mental note not to ask Molly any more personal questions. "We're happy to have you here, though. I know the pub can always use the help."
