Gwen just smirked at his remark about not losing time, but didn’t reply anything. She was still thinking about how she should start to even bring up the subject. It was harder than she even expected. Just as she was once again lost in thought, trying to decide what she should say, the fifth year heard Jory ask her something. Errrr. Was there something wrong? Yes, the sentimental stuff was making her sick, but she couldn’t reply that, could she? Before Gwen could say a word to answer his first question, the Hufflepuff added something...

Distracted?

‘Do I?’, Gwendolyn answered with another question. In the next moment, the fifth year wanted to draw her attention to the Arithmancy book, but stopped herself. Jory was talking about the train ride. Maybe he would be so kind to make things easier and just ask about Ari?, the Ravenclaw thought, waiting for that to happen. But noooo. No such luck. But wait... he was reading... ‘Anything interesting? I’ve been meaning to start reading on the train as well to make time pass faster, but I ran into Ari’

Come ooon.

Be so kind and get the hint!

After waiting for Jory to say something, the Ravenclaw drew her attention to the book she had previously placed on the table. ‘Arithmancy it is’, she nodded, while taking a piece of parchment and scribbling something on it. ‘First we should start with the core numbers. These are the Life Path, Expression/Destiny, Heart's Desire and Personality Number’ Now she passed the piece of parchment to Jory for him to write his full name and date of birth. ‘If you want me to skip a part-’ Because that was understandable. ‘-just tell me’ Seriously... she had nothing against having to talk less.
