Marcy and Cynthia perform a Happy Dance that is not unlike chickens sidestepping hot pavement.
Marcy stops suddenly.
Marcy: Wait. I’m mad at you. And, I am not supposed to speak to you for the next five hours.
Cynthia (disappointed): Awww…really?
Marcy: Sorry. Cat Rules 101. One hour for every day you were gone.

Marcy: In fact, I can’t even LOOK at you.
Marcy stalks off a few feet, turns her back, puffs up like a turkey, and whips her tail back and forth.
Cynthia (hopefully): But don’t you want to see my pictures?
Marcy gives Cynthia a snide sideways look and continues to whip her tail back and forth.
Cynthia: So you’re in this for the duration, I guess. Five hours of the silent treatment. Sigh… I guess I’ll unpack.

Ha! That is so true. Always the silent treatment with cats when you leave them. They do not forgive easily! I hope she is "speaking" now. Or what I mean is, acknowledging you at last.
I am glad you got home safely. I am sorry for the reason that took you away from Marcy. I hope your heart heals itself with the passing of each day.

Thank you, Jenni! Marcy is indeed speaking to me now. She is mostly demanding treats.
