You didn't do too badly either." he said, recalling the day fondly. It had been fun. It was also the day he met Rachel. His expression soured slightly at that thought before clearing again.
"Chicago huh? If I'd known I would have called or something. Well probably not since I don't actually know any of your contact details but yeah..." She wanted the title of the film? That was a little weird for him. Maybe because most people don't ask an actor the title of the film since the interviewers normally know. It was nice though, that she was asking. "The Unholy. It's not the most original title but when your dealing with a muggle market they normally aren't. When it comes to film titles at least." Reid informed her, giving a slight shrug. "However the script was better than the title so people that watch it should be happy." Hopefully.
"Technically I invited Rachel, who invited Livvy because she wanted someone else to spend time with while I had to work. It was hard to get the director to agree to let them come with us and even then it was only because I used my own money when it came to flights and hotel rooms." He said with a small sad smile. "Unfortunately things probably would have been better had he refused to let them come. While the movie turned out great this summer was not so much." Shaking his head slightly he brightened again, there was no need to make Via feel sad. "So tell me, how was Chicago? It's been ages since I've been there."
"I'm glad." Reid informed her, in reference to her last statement. It was good to make her laugh. With Via he didn't have to walk on eggshells and it was a relief.
He still remember that time, how bad...
"yeah... Don't mention it. It's kinda embarrassing," she told him.
"I was never born to walk on ramp stages. Even standing in front of a crowd makes me faint." She was never good at it.
"That was the last day i talked to you," she said as she recalled.
Via just smiled when he said he could have called her,
"I don't know their number either. And i wasn't really familiar with the place. You see... i've been in Halesworth all my life and i just had the chance to be in another place except Hogwarts last summer," she chuckled. That was another embarrassing thing but then she was glad she couldn't find any other place to go except their home at Halesworth.
"The Unholy... So that seemed like creepy huh?" she asked.
"Was it a mystery movie? Who were your co-actors?" She loved mystery and detective movies and shows, it's not as if she wanted to be an Auror...but yeah she did wanted to be.
"I see... so that was so generous of you to pay for everything," Via said as she took her seat at the stairs. The moving thing was making her kinda dizzy already. She then sensed something wrong had happened when Reid continued on what he was saying...
"Why? Oh probably you wouldn't want me to ask. But i'm sorry.. i'm too nosy and i couldn't help it," she grinned.
"What happened?" she said curiously. She remembered Rachel at the seventh floor,
"Does it have something to do about Rachel being a sad when i saw her? I knew something was wrong when i talked to her but then she didn't wanna share it," she added. She's too talkative again.
He had cut the topic when he asked her how was it in Chicago, It's beautiful.
"We had so much fun. My real father drove us all the way to down town and we went shopping. The boutiques were fab... it's such a busy place. There were so many people. I had to grip Natalia's hand so i wouldn't get lost. That was my first time there so what if i find myself alone? I couldn't use any magic at all," she told him.
"We had a whole day shopping and then we ended up eating at one of the eateries in Hyde park. The place was nice and convenient... the most busy i say? but don't ask me where it is located coz i don't know how we reached that place. It took us days to finish the simple tour... Lake Michigan was very beautiful. And so are everyone else who lived there." she had to stop. She had been talking and talking but she still have lots of stuffs to tell but she have to cut it short.
"I woke up one day and found people buzzing at our house coz they wanted to take a look of me... now... I had to hide coz i don't wanna show up. They were mum and Dad's friends. They've been there since i was lost and that's for 15 years."
There she have said it all... in one go.
"Am i talking too much?" she asked him.
"Just tell me."
