Okay, so she didn’t need help she was just looking for ….? Hmm. Watching her as she babbled slightly (she reminded her of Marsha on a sugar-high) she made a motion for her to slow down. ”How about this… I would like to help you find your Dad… but only if you would like me to help...” There… no pressure. That worked with adults and men - but would it work wih a child under eleven? Who knew - she would soon find out. ”My name is Benedetta, but you can call me Benny.”

”No,” she said with a smile. ”I don’t have a date at Puddifoot’s.” She tilted her head slightly to the side as if trying to figure out where that question had come from. ”Why did you think I had a date?”

”You know, I have a niece about your age, she just started Hogwarts. How long do you still have to wait until you can go to school there?” Niiice simple question to show the girl that even with a slight Italian-lilt to her english, she was lovely and that she wouldn’t hurt her. Kids related to kids… At least from what she remembered of being a child, she had… but then what did she know really? She had fourteen siblings and Merlin only knows how many cousins.

Genny considered the girl's (who turned out to be called Benny) offer. "I think that's fine." She just wanted to establish that she was old enough withOUT having to look for her father, that was an important point. "We can look for him together." It was more fun this way. The brunette nodded her head and introduced herself back, "You can call me Genny." Last names were not allowed to be shared with strangers, her dad wasted no second reminding her.

'Why?' Genny gave her an incredulous look. "You don't know?" Oh this was not good. "That's what girls your age do. I don't quite know why yet, but I'm sure there's a good reason, everybody's doing it." Suddenly, Genny was feeling sorry for the girl. "Come, we can look for my father and a date for you." She held her hand and urged her to walk down the street.

"One and a half year." She confirmed, her eyes searching the faces for dad or a good looking person for Benny. "Does she like it there? My dad used to be the headmaster." She beamed proudly. "Now David's mother is running it." But her dad did it better.
