Maddie found herself immersed in the vibrant ambiance of the medicinal plants zone. Excitement coursed through her as she surveyed the various hands-on activities available. The prospect of learning about the magical properties of different plants for her beloved animals filled her with curiosity and eagerness.

In her pursuit of a shrivelfig, Maddie reached out and accidentally squeezed it too tightly, she had not been expecting its ripeness! The flesh to give way with so little pressure. The resulting squirt of juice landed directly on the person next to her. Realizing her blunder, she gasped, her hand instinctively covering her mouth in shock.

"Oh, my goodness! I am so sorry!" Maddie exclaimed, her voice laced with genuine concern. "I didn't mean to squirt you. That was a complete accident. Please forgive me!" She quickly took in the person's features, finally recognizing the familiar face from the ball. The realization hit her, and her eyes widened in surprise.

"Mister Gladstone! It's you! I didn't realize," Maddie said, her cheeks colouring with renewed embarassment. Maddie's looked around for a nearby source of water or a cloth to help clean him up. She mentally scolded herself for the mistake and seeming to impose the aquaintance on him - which was built on so little - a mere dance at the Coming out Ball.

"Let me find something to clean you up" Maddie offered, her voice filled with earnestness. "I promise I'll make it up to you, and pay for any repairs." With a slight blush coloring her cheeks, Maddie cast about for somewhere to clean him up.
