Looking up uneasily, and sniffling a little, Jake avoided eye contact. It had been hard to write that, and even harder to read it, and not just because his writing was dreadful.
"And, I'm sorry about my reading," he added, shrugging a shoulder. "I'm good at reading, just not out loud. I'm, like, giving the letter to you as well, if I was hard to follow," Jake explained, apologetically, with a voice that hinted waterworks... not that he'd let that happen.
Now for the verdict...
Dun, dun... DUNNNNNNNNNNNN! NIGHTLY DETENTIONS!? For snapping at the teaching staff? Who HEXED him in the first place? EXCUUUUUUUUUSE ME?
Caroline struggled. STRUGGLED. for control. It took her a full minute. "You did very well. And it was a very lovely, heartfelt... enlightening... letter." I'm going to kill that man. I'm going to kill him with my bare hands. Oaths or no Oaths.
She needed chocolate. NOW.
Cari opened her bottom drawer and pulled out a candy tin. "Did you know my brother, Jake? Tobi Avalon? He was at Hogwarts last term. He makes sweets and sends them to me." She opened the tin and revealed several glossy cubes of chocolate-lime fudge, her very favourite. "Would you care for a piece of fudge?"
