"Fourth grade,' she putting her napkin on the table and opening her purse.
She then stood, "excuse me," she said stopping beside Reese and handing her
some money for the bill.  "I'll be outside," she said softly.

Julia watched her leave and started to move her chair to go after her.  Not
to fight but to clear the air and find out why she felt it necessary to
leave the way she did, adding to herself but not planning on mentioning it
to the other - considering she was the one that after Kat received
instruction to eat the green beans she undermined it by trading off a dish.

Reese looked at her and then the others, for once taking matters in her own
hands and standing, expression apologetic.  "Please don't.  I think I need
to speak to her.  And we'll return shortly."

With that she walked outside and spotted Sam, walking up to her and waiting
for her friend to speak first but her expression clearly saying it was time
to talk, now.
