She wasn't too young or too stupid to understand that a lost bag and a broken necklace usually meant something bad. "What happened?" Her little voice asked as she went over warily, frightened by Roy's shouting.
Mels, being a little kitten out alone, totally proved Roy's point about kids not always understanding adults' reasons for trying to keep them safe. She tottered over to the bag, sniffing at it. Her nose crinkled at the unfamiliar smell of the Typhoon. "Bad smell." She murmured, rubbing her nose with a paw as if that would dissipate the smell. "What's fucking?" It was a word he'd used, and Mels didn't know it. She looked up at Roy as she said it, big yellow eyes not knowing at all what kind of a word it was.
