Narrative:

Captain called back and asked to see me in cockpit. I went up there and he informed me that something was wrong with a fuel gauge or something to do with the fuel. He told me to put everything away and inform the other flight attendants to put everything away -- we were going to land in mco. We would not be evacing, it was just something that was wrong, and we needed to land and have it fixed. We landed and had it fixed and proceeded to yyz.
