Kids with anxiety do have a tendency to get into a routine with behaviours and this is what this sounds like to me. So crying on the days her friends are not there is her routine. The best thing you can do is try to break that routine by getting her into a different one on the days her friends are not there. Could be something like a special craft or activity that starts as soon as she gets there or anything else you think might work. I have two siblings with anxiety and these routines happen a lot so when I notice it happening I do the special activity and try and get then pumped about it at the door, then I ignore their whining and then get them engaged, within a few days the routine is reset.
