He was eating the last few bites off his plate. He felt like he was on one of those muggle game shows, Lucy sure did have a lot of questions. "She pretty much avoids Romania as much as possible, the closest we've been is Bulgaria. And she would never let me travel alone, so I don't know, maybe after 7 years at Hogwarts I'll go." Rafe drank his last bit of pumpkin juice. He was absolutely stuffed. "So what about yourself? You seem to know a lot about me know, tell me something about you."
Lucy's need for information seemed to be filling itself.
"Oh, so you only live with your mother? I'm sorry I didn't know," she said to him, feeling quite awful because she knew she would hate it if she didn't have both her parents living with her.
Then, moving closer to Rafe, she whispered, "Do you miss him? Or was he the kind of dad that didn't really care about kids? Well, you probably never got to meet him, as you were a baby when your mom left, but do you ever wish you had met him?" Lucy hoped he understood what she was trying to ask him. She was being nosey again, but she was just so curious about Rafe--his life seemed so exciting but sad all the same--yet he didn't really show it at all. Deep down, she really admired him.
"Me?! What do you want to know about me for?? My life is boring, trust me, you'll fall asleep," she said with a laugh.
She looked up to see whether Kat was eating or not, and kind of loaded Kat's plate with food.
"Kat, you should really eat up," Lucy said while peeling a banana.
