"H-H-H-hello," Kurumi said bowing her head.
"Hi," Rafe said. He took in a deep breath of the sweet warm air.
"How are you?" He didn't really know what to say. He wasn't opposed to making new friends, but he still felt a little out of place. A year away from Hogwarts can really change a person.

"Really?" he asked in a bit of a shock. How far COULD they go?! Not wanting to wait around to see if the boy spoke the truth, he jumped about two feet back, just to be safe. "Thanks," he said to the boy. He didn't want to get smashed into a billion tiny Badger pieces before school even started!
"No problem! Just be safe," he called back and watched as he was accompanied. He didn't inquire any further. Who knows? Maybe he'd run into that kid later.
