Becca's face proposedly came into view the moment Anna opened the door, but rather than acting surprised to see Becca standing before her threshold at a busy time like this, Anna just smiled as usual at Becca's unforeseen presence.

"Becca."

"Forgive me if I'm intruding all of a sudden" she quietly began with an apologetic tone, "I understand that you must be busy and need to get ready but I was wondering….I was wondering if Gemma is with you by any chance?"

Her sudden question made Anna's brow furrow and her forehead creased in puzzlement. She wasn't blind to the worry that Becca was failingly trying to hide, but her mind didn't really dwell on it until now.

"No, she isn't with me." Anna finally responded, leading Becca's face to gradually pale since Gemma turned out to not be with Anna in the end, despite her wishful thinking.
