He shrugged. "Children are not allowed here, so feel free to hex any that come in. And you are better off without him." That hadn't been what she'd meant, but Veronica wasn't sure if she was ready to admit that to him or not. She'd meant that when Philippe left her, or kicked her out his house really, she'd been left homeless and penniless. She hadn't had a choice to accept the position at Madam Malkin's, and when that had fallen through, she definitely had no other choice but to accept the position with with Trelawney.
He'd become her security, but that was yet another fact she'd keep to herself.
She nodded once, even though they were talking about two completely different things. "If I...need your assistance for any reason," she said, her tone indicating slight hesitation, "how would I reach you? Are you always here?" A small part of her--a very, very small part--still sought out the safety his presence brought to her life.
She couldn't help the smile that decorated her face when he mentioned that she should hex the children. "Then I can't wait for them to arrive," she said, "especially the lot from the robes shop."
