Beezus unlatched the button on her robe as she stepped inside the Great Hall. Why, it suddenly felt warm. TOO warm.

Looking around, she couldn't help but grin as farewells were being sent to and fro. The Headmaster's speech wasn't given yet and of course, the students took the opportunity to say goodbye to their friends especially the seventh years who'd be graduating. There surely wasn't one who failed right?

Speaking of seventh years, she really needed to wish Vashti some luck. And well, she could add Ellie to that. Yet it can wait. Most certainly, it can. After all, there was still time after the Feast. A bit but still, there was time.

The young eaglette took a deep breath and shuffled to her House Table. Just for a while, she wanted to forget about the letter her cousin sent and the fact that MAYBE she won't be coming back afterwards. She snorted at the thought, why was she even thinking about it?! She was trying to forget it for the time being!

She finally arrived on the Table, only to find out that there weren't any food yet. "Great," she mumbled under her breath as she sat down on a vacant space not too far-not too close to other students conversing.
