Just smile and nod."And that's exactly what she did: She smiled at Lacey and bowed her head as though she had never heard anything so beautiful. Then she turned in a graceful attempt to bow out of having to converse any further with the crazy one. Ruby and Koln were gone, and she could only imagine what kind of conversation they were having now. Somehow, she envisioned that a scene from a soap opera was going on out there, and she felt bitter green envy frothing up in the pit of her stomach again for just the briefest of moments before she began to worry that Mindy could read her like an open book. Shrugging the feeling aside and letting her face relax into casual lines, she turned to her friend and made every attempt to ignore Lacey, "So, did you and Ruby have a good time out there? You and her probably have a lot to talk about, with being... um... red-headed country girls and all..." She finished the statement a bit lamely after realizing that she really was just trying to pass the time and really had nothing interesting to say.</blockquote>
