"It's alright," Jennifer grabbed Karen by the arm and stopped Karen from wiping her dress, "Is there something bothering you?" Jennifer asked. She was not bothered about some water spilling over her.

"I am fine, just a bit tired," Karen said as she smiled at Jennifer and stood up. She looked at the other ladies, "I will just be back," Karen said and excused herself from there.
