An awkward silence fell on Simba. It seemed she really didn't want to discuss her mother, though with the way he mentioned her, he wasn't surprised. "She arrived here not too long ago." He lay down and placed his head on his paws. "I don't know what her problem is, but she really doesn't like me." That was the understatement of the century.

Anyway, time to change the subject, yes? "I guess you're Kovu's sister then?"
