Francine had cups, plastic ones in a stack on the shelf by her bed. She was just going for them when Dinah asked the question, and she stopped for a moment with her back turned and gave a half-choked little laugh. "If Recovering From the Last Couple Days was a class, I'd be re-taking it next semester."

She brought the cups over to the bed and took a seat, indicating a spot for Dinah to do the same.
