Rating: G-PG for now
It wasn't as though Katie had gone very long without seeing Angelina, but it had been more than she'd liked, and she was more than a little excited about spending the afternoon with her. In reality it was less than a week, but sometimes even going that long without seeing your best friend is too long. Of course, they'd owled back and forth while Katie had been at her parents' house but it wasn't the same. The fact that Angelina's last owl had been rather vague while at the same time hinting at exciting news didn't help much, as it made Katie all the more anxious to see her friend. The possibilities were endless as to what it could be, but since Angelina had said it was good news, at least she didn't have to worry about something awful being told to her over ice cream.
Katie had had enough of bad news to last her the rest of her life, and if she never had to another tragic or upsetting thing it would be wonderful. She knew it was unlikely, as bad things happened every day, but she could hope that at least whatever did happen was of little importance and on the scale of a stubbed toe rather than a murdered family member. The darker turn her thoughts had taken made Katie frown a little as she sat waiting for Angelina at Florean's. Staring at the table she tried, hard as she could, to change her train of thought. The only thing that really helped was the sight of a mother walking by where she sat outside dragging a screaming girl of about five. It appeared that the girl was rather upset that her mother wasn't allowing her to have ice cream before lunch. The sight brought a smile to Katie's face, both because she thought it was adorable and she herself was having ice cream before her lunch.
