Abby was amazed how normal a family life Katie seemed to have considering where they were. All this time she had been worried for nothing.
When they made it to their house she found that it was a simple dwelling with a kitchen, living room, four bedrooms, and a bathroom. A real bathroom! She thanked her lucky stars for indoor plumbing at last.
"You have a real bathroom!" she practically exclaimed.
Katie laughed and wrapped an arm around her waist because she was too short to reach her shoulders easily. "I got pretty lucky. Nobles have bathrooms and I insisted on having one when we built our house. I take it you haven't seen a real toilet since leaving home?"
"Not one," Abby said ruefully.
"You poor thing! How did you adjust? And how did you find me? Start from the beginning; I want to hear everything."
