"Mom, what are you doing here?" Spencer asks and runs over to her mother. Maura, Spencer's mom, pulls her daughter in for a long hug.
"It's nice to see you as well honey." Maura laughs. I swear I see tears in Spencer's eyes but she buries her face in her mom's shoulder. She's making sniffling sounds so I'm almost certain she's crying. Spencer never cries. Sarah pulls me away and we both head to the kitchen to leave Spencer and her mom to their privacy.
"I'm sorry if you were worried about us Sarah." I said as soon as I sat down on a stool.
"Spencer just wanted to treat me in advance for my birthday. Did you call her mom?" I ask.
"No dear. She stopped by, and believe it or not we were both very worried. You guys were gone for so long, and we had no idea where you were." Sarah tells me.
