“Let’s try,” Merle said. “Hello, Eliza. Thank you for trusting us.” She looked around the circle. “I can feel that she is happier already.”

“I think it’s because of the dog,” Gina said. “The two orbs are close together and the dog seems to be following her - like a real dog would do.”

“That’s right. The dog is really happy and around her legs,” Declan said.

Merle nodded.

“Well spotted, Gina. That might be the way to do it.” She took a breath. “Eliza, can you see your daughter’s dog? Make a noise if you can,” Merle asked again and this time there was a bang. “Thank you. Does that make you feel better?” Another bang.

“Well that is progress, anyway,” Rula said.

“The dog found its way here, so maybe it can show her the way back,” Bart suggested.

“If the dog came because it came with us, maybe we should go back to Jemima’s and see if it follows us back there,” Sam said.

“Eliza,” Merle said, “do you miss your little Beth?” There was a dull thud.

“That felt really sad,” Branna said.

“Eliza,will you follow the dog to see Beth?” There was a pause and then a small and uncertain noise. “I promise you there is nothing to be afraid of.” Another bang and a bit more confident. “I am going to finish now and go to Beth. Do you understand me, Eliza?” Another sound. “Good. Bart, can you call for the dog and we’ll close down? If it doesn’t work this way, maybe Beth will follow us back to her mom. We can just try.”

Bart nodded and called out. “Good dog. Come on. Good boy. Let’s go and find Beth.”

“Thanks,” Merle said and went through her closing down routine. The group shook their arms and legs and talked to each other as they headed back to the gates. Bart thanked the caretaker and gave him an envelope.

“Have a good Christmas,” he said. “Come on. Good dog,” he added into thin air. They drove away to Jemima’s house and Magda called her on the way to say that they were coming and hoped it was okay.

At the house, Jemima met them at the door with a beaming smile.

“It is so much better now there are no noises. Come in. Come in. Oh, Rula, the real estate agent is getting on with this. Thank you.” The woman was bubbling over with happiness. It was such a big difference from the fear of just a few days ago.

“I am so glad it is all working out for you,” Magda told her. “We are hoping the little dog has brought Beth’s mom with him.”

“If this all works out, we owe a big debt to your magic café.”

Magda laughed.

“I would like to think it was magic, but I think that good friends are priceless.”

“Can we set up another circle?” Merle asked and they made the same grouping that they had done before. “Can anyone see an orb to say the dog is with us?”

“Nothing at the moment,” Gina said.

“Maybe it will come if we talk to Beth,” Magda suggested, and Merle went through her routine.
