Her eyes fell on his nametag as he spoke, and she smiled, a very wide smile, "Upstead? Huh. I used to know someone named Upstead..." but they sort of lost touch and her face fell when she realized that she hadn't done anything at all to keep in touch with Jake, she actually wondered if her brother knew something about the boy but she didn't even ask Treyen that.

Well, she was now a very bad friend, wasn't she?

Kaika shook her head as if to make those thoughts disappear and gave the shopkeeper a small smile, "Daniel," she said, "I'm trying to find, and it would be amazing if you do have it, a First Edition of..." now that she was saying it, it sounded pretty impossible, and she felt even ridiculous for keeping up her search, "...'The Beaters' Bible'? You know, written by Scrimgeour, Brutus Scrimgeour?" she still had a bit of hope, and if she couldn't find it here, then odds were this was going to be the hardest book to find.

"It's okay... I..." Daniel trailed off slightly and glanced to the door nervously before pulling himself up properly again. "I had a little trouble with a wizard in here the other day. St. Mungos healed me up as best they could... but..."

Best to shut up.

"I know of a younger Upstead," Daniel nodded with a friendly smile once more. He didn't go on with the subject though, even though he had indeed been contacted by a 16 year old in recent months. But finding his brother had nothing to do with business.

Which was what this was.

When the girl mentioned a certain book, Daniel looked around for his wand, but realised it was still upstairs on his bedside table. Crap. "Well, I've just come back from an auction just for first edition books, and if it's not here, then it might be in our special section." Here he was saying 'our' like he owned this business with someone else. HA. "I pride myself on the books I have collected, especially the number of first editions. We'll see if it's in here first," Daniel said, pointing at the biiiiiiiiiig collection of books before him. "I don't like to summon books here... some are too delicate for books to be flying around."
