The circumstances under which they met may have been awful, but it's nice to have a potential friend and to get out and do something. It's too easy to spend her spare time moping, and if she gives in to that, she's not sure she'll ever quite pull herself out. She wouldn't know how to start.
With Jamie, probably, she thinks. He's always been her anchor, but now she needs that more than ever.
Still, the possibility of having a new friend comes as a relief, as does an afternoon spent pleasantly while the children play. "Jamie, this is Demelza. Do you wanna say hi?"
"Hi," he says, and looks at the children with her. "Who's that?"
