Dawn's voice was a welcome one, though Khoe wished that they had been able to meet under different circumstances. The warmth of embarrassment rolled over her once and twice-over, though she knew that this was nothing to be ashamed of. This is going to be a den, she laughed, trying to make light of the situation. I wasn't feeling too well this morning. I'm sorry to bother you. Khoe stopped digging for a moment and circled back around to kick dirt over the evidence. 

Care to help me? With the digging, I mean. Khoe used her head to motion back toward the shallow hole and, once again, circled her way around to continue what she had been doing.
