It's an effort not to raise her hand to her mouth, not to let the stinging at the edge of her eyes become more than a shine that might have been caused by the sun.
It's stupid. She knows Emma didn't mean it like that, but she ends up raising a hand to wipe away the first tear to escape since waking up. Trying to focus on the food and movie and later. Later, not at her work. "That'll be great, Emma. Thanks. I should go. The kids."
