"Have you ever been around muggles? It's a very different experience." she asked.
"Ah, I see." JP noticed that she hesitated to bring that up so he just went along with the subject change. Once they got to become better friends he was sure she would share. After all, there was a time a place for everything as his father always said.
"Well, you see. My cousin is kind of a muggle. My Aunt and Uncle are foul people. They had three children but the last one turned out to not have magic. They weren't to happy about that so before he got to old they gave him up for adoption to a muggle family. My parents didn't like that. And since he is around my age they thought i would be cool to let me meet him. So during summer holidays i go an visit him and his family. They are really nice people. Don't mind our kind at all. Of course it did take a bit of convincing for my cousin to believe that we were related. but after a bit of talking he believed me. He teaches me a lot about the muggle world. It's really strange."
JP took a breathe. It had always been hard to shorten the story of his cousin but once he started telling it he couldn't stop till he was done.
"Sorry, i know that was a lot" JP blushed a little.
