"I'm disappointed to hear that," he said simply and then decided to leave the conversation at that. He didn't want it to end up that he and Cari ceased talking to one another also over a stupid conversation that could be easily avoided.
"So what has been happening with you? Anything much at the school? Word at the hospital was you had to quarantine a student? Was it anything serious?" "Tea would be nice." She didn't have much of an appetite lately, even for pie. It was probably the flooding. Okay, definitely the flooding. Who could eat, or sleep for that matter when water was creeping up ready to drown you?
Not Caroline. She'd been stealing sleep here and there as much as she could. Just returned from Easter Holidays, she was fairly well rested. But it wouldn't be long before the yawning would start again.
She skipped right over Lee's comment and moved on to describe the climate at Hogwarts. "We had one girl, a Muggleborn who is probably the only person in this day and age who missed her immunization for meningococcal meningitis, it took me a while to figure out what was wrong with her because the presentation was very very strange."
Cari finished her tea and tried to arrange her face in a stoic expression, "And then... ofcourse... because when, in the entire history of Hogwarts have things gone smoothly... The school is flooding. Mermaids apparently."
Would shrugging make it seem like she was less stressed about this situation? She tried it.
It came out more like a cringe.
