96. Socks Dedalus nudged Hestia as they stood looking around the kitchen of Number 4 Privet Drive. He spotted a laundry basket sitting near the back door that looked as though it had been abandoned. The guard was making their way to the landing but he was stuck in place. “What‘ re you looking at Dedalus?” Hestia asked in a hushed tone. “Have you ever seen so many socks before, Hestia?” he asked in an awed voice. “Socks?” Hestia asked.
Dedalus nodded, his purple hat falling off.
Hestia shook her head and walked away. He is amazed by his shadow, she thought. |
