Dinny lay her head on Stel's shoulder and traced patterns on her stomach. Stel stroked Dinny's back and kissed her hair. "What is it, love?"
A sigh, and Dinny's hand stilled. "Meli's in love."
"What's wrong with that?" Stel smoothed down Dinny's curls.
"With Molly."
"And?"
"And Molly's in love with Pip Gardner. She has been for a long time."
Stel sighed and lifted Dinny's head so she could look at her. "Meli's found of Pip, too. And Molly has a big heart. She loves Meli."
Dinny blinked back tears. "I don't want to see my girl hurt," she said softly, and Stel kissed her.
"You won't, love. Believe in them, alright?" Dinny nodded, and Stel smiled, tearing them both over. "Good," she said, and proceeded to drive it all from Dinny's mind.
