When she got there, there was an older woman drinking tea.  Megan brushed her confrontation with Julia aside and smiled in greeting "Hello.  I'm sorry to interrupt.  I just came in to retrieve my purse."
 
She pointed to the purse before going over to it and picking it up.
 
It was obvious the staff knew the woman was here and there was something about her that tickled the edges of Megan's memory that made her ask "I don't mean to be rude but do I know you? You seem very familiar to me."
 
Barbara looked at the young woman for a moment but she couldn't place her "I wouldn't really know but if I introduce myself you might know.  I'm Barbara Rayne, Derek Rayne's mother."
