Jane blinked, trying to take in all that the girl was telling her. It sounded pretty out of this world simply having a whole bunch of people randomly show up in Kansas. But it had happened to her, hadn't it? So it made sense that it was something that others might experience as well. And while it did sound rather ominous to hear that coming out of someone so young, Jane was glad to not have anything sugar coated at her right then.
She tried to remember that she didn't want to frighten the child or the kitten she was still holding and continued to try and keep from looking as terrified as she felt. Could she ever return home? Surely she wasn't going to stay here forever. What about her family?
Sure she had told Lizzie that moving to LA and being on her own and done her a world of good but she could always go back to see her sisters and parents. They were only a phone call away. But here she couldn't seem to make even their numbers work.
"My name's Jane. It's nice to meet you, Grace. Have you been here long?"
