She found it a little confusing at times, but she loved hanging out with her Granpap over the summers while he worked in his labs. And usually all of his workers were nice and cool, too. It was why Astrea was well versed in that stuff at eleven.
Sigh.
The girl didn't wanna' share.
Astea nodded, though. "Okay. That's fine. I have a lot of candy to buy, too, anyways!" she needed more than just two chocolate frogs, though! "Oh? Why not? It's a lot but maybe you can spread it out over like...a week or something." Pace herself and whatnot!
"That sounds like fun," Niomi replied to the story Astea told her of her grandpa,
"No one in my family is like that." Her family was a pureblood family, they didn't like to explore the great outdoors. Especially on her mother's side. Her father's side was a slightly different story.
A smile was paced on Niomi's face again,
"I was planning to spread it out. I don't come here too often. When I do, I buy lots. People tend to look at me, but they don't know why I'm buying all this candy." Sometimes Niomi wish others would mind their own business when looking at her like she's a crazy woman.
"Want to shop around for some more candy? Maybe we can go eat some later?"
Niomi didn't want to sound stupid and turn this awkward, but she had a question she wanted to ask Astea. She stuck her courage up and asked,
"Do you go to Hogwarts?"
