When the 3 of them arrives outside Menlo's cafe, Ella stops for a moment. "Look, I'm sorry that I snapped at you just back there. Honestly there was no need for me to behave like act." Ella said. 

"What are you talking about? It's fine. You didn't snap at me. I should be the one apologising. My head's a little malfunctioning at the moment." Daisy said. "No. I did snap. I do recall. And with plain hindsight, I should not have reacted the way that I did." Ella said. 

"It's just with me being alone most of the time, that gets to me and has effects on my social skills so it does, if you know what I mean." Ella exclaimed.

"Ah, I see. I understand." Daisy replied. "So what I'm saying is... that wasn't really me back there. That was my.... persona. So I'm sorry if I was a bit much." Ella said.

"Absolute nonsense. So far I'm really enjoying your company as a friend. Honestly, even though we had only met, I appreciate and aspire your presence honestly. Your energy, your tone of voice, your commitment to your work back there, are your greatest assets. Honestly, you're a enjoyable character, I must say." Daisy says.

"Aw, thanks. I appreciate that. That's made my day." Ella said and squeezes Daisy in for the most tightest of hugs if there ever was one. "Erm.... Erm.... Can't.... Can't... breathe...." Daisy struggled to speak. Ella momentarily laughed to herself and shortly pulls away. "Right. Let's go in. What do you fancy?" she asked. "Hmmm, probably just a latte, you know. And a hot chocolate for the little fella." Daisy thought. "Ohhh, sounds absolutely lovely! You know something, I might grab myself a hot chocolate too!" Ella exclaimed in a ecstatic tone of voice as she looks down at Toby.

 "Hot chocolate, Hot chocolate!" Toby exclaimed with cheer. 

As they walk in, there was a couple of people lining up in the queue waiting to order what they want. Daisy smiled at Ella as they followed and waited behind. 

"Erm.... auntie Daisy?" Toby asked. "Yes honey, what is it?" Daisy asked. "I think I might need to use the toilet." Toby replied. "Hold on a minute here, where is the toilet?" Daisy thought. "Ey. Ey! Excuse me!" Ella said to a cafe woman. "Yes? how can I help you?" she asked. "Do you know where the toilets are? My friend's nephew is looking to go." Ella explained. "Oh. Just head up those stairs and the male's bathrooms should be on the right." the woman explained. 

"Here. Go you take him up. I'll pay for all our drinks." Ella said. "No, I'm paying--" "Go." Ella said. "He needs to go. You don't want to bear the blame he has an accident because you were standing in the line for so long, would you?" Ella asked. "Eh... I suppose not. But I owe you one." Daisy said and proceeds to taking Toby upstairs.

Ella stood there and chillingly stares at Daisy as she walks Toby up the stairs to go to the toilet. "Oh, I've got you now..." she mutters under her breath and steps forward and tells the orders to the servant.
