Castiel can see Rich and Amy Milton at the opposite end of the store, frantically talking to an employee. And from his vantage point, he can also see Anna.

He did not come here for the purpose of seeing her. Of course. This is a time of year when people in parts of the world congregate in a wide variety of venues for a wide variety of reasons. The mall is very crowded. There are hundreds of people here to watch.

Anna is no more special than any other. She is just another human being.

She does not warrant special consideration.

She is not his responsibility.

She......is going completely in the wrong direction.

Had he the proper form, a very loud sigh would be emitted right about now.
