For the first time since he had arrived in the Great Hall, he looked over the Hufflepuff table, looking for Caitlin. He didn't see her, and he saddened, hoping she was alright. She was probably having a harder time than he was.
He turned back to Melinda. "Caitlin gave me the news on the train after...you know. We don't know how he's doing right now or where he is..."
But it'll get better. If not worse...
Melinda didn't know what to say to cheer Travis up. "He'll come back...someday...he will..." She said, "You Gryffindors are quite loyal and brave...to your own word..." She said and tried to smile.
As Travis looked at the Hufflepuff table, she also wondered where was Caitlin. "Don't worry, she will be here soon, talking to you, me, even..." She said and held tight to his hand.
She nodded as she heard Travis talk about those news. "Bad news fly quickly...if something by now, this minute would happen to Irial, I am sure you two would know it...don't you think so?" She said and looked in his eyes. He seemed quite worried, really not in his five senses.
