"Mariah, just stop worrying and have a drink with me. It'll calm you down and bit" said Helda
"Where did you get a..." Mariah saw the pouch of money on the bar counter. "Helda you fool woman!"
Mariah jumped to her feet and didn't bother to quiet her voice.
"What are you thinking?! Do you realise we can't be wasting our money on drinks?! Do you realise that is all the money we have?! You're going to lead us to a life of begging!" she yelled
"Mariah, quiet down. We'll find some more money soon-" said Helda through her teeth, looking around her at the people staring at them.
"What on earth makes you think that?! You can't get by all your life with a wink and a kiss! I've put up with your flirting and your spending long enough Helda!"
"I liked you better before Mariah," said Helda cooly though her cheeks were red with anger "You can just get along without me"
Helda grabbed the small pouch and almost ran out the door. Mariah made to stop her but ran into a darkly clad elf and was knocked backward into a chair which tipped her onto the floor.
