Just beyond the door to the lovely candy shop in Diagon Alley lays shelves among shelves of different types of wizarding candy imaginable. Everything is labeled, so it shouldn't be too hard to find what you're looking for. There comes a time when someone picks up way too much candy than they can carry. No worries! A stack of baskets have been placed near the last shelf on the right, and anybody is welcome to use them if they need something to put their candy in.
Some items have been placed on the very high shelf. If you happen to need something from the top shelf and can't reach it, don't hesitate to notify the shopkeeper. He's more than happy to help you. It's better to get help than to try to reach the candy and make a mess! If you do happen to make a mess, make sure you fix it. Though the shopkeeper would have seen it already, he'd like to see that you didn't leave precious candy on the floor. He might be behind the counter, but his excellent sight allows him to see every single thing going on. Mhhm.

Shifting her attention from the unnecessary number of sweets to his features, her eyes softened slightly. "You know it would be more cost efficient to have your house elf make you that amount rather than purchase it and have to deal with all sticky packaging." Not that cost was something she ever concerned herself with.

"It's the perfect sweet treat and isn't heavy like chocolate is," he said, glancing up at her again, "Plus, I don't know many people who like it so it's less likely to be stolen by a hungry dormmate."

His eyes narrowed slightly as he looked her up and down. "Are you...... trying to be my business manager?" The words cost efficient weren't ones you heard everyday unless it was business related. "I don't have a house elf so unless you have some sort of secret recipe that I should know about," Hint hint. "I don't think I can go around making it." The number one reason being that he was lazy and much rather preferred someone else making food for him. Except, now she'd gotten him thinking about whether the house elves knew how to make this sweet treat and if they did, he was wasting his time and money in this place.

Well, honestly Ava wasn't really in a good mood lately. There were just a lot of things that bothered her and triggered the mood, but she refused to tell Adi. It's not that she didn't trust the former Hufflepuff, but she'd rather to keep her personal problems by herself. "I'm fine, it's just uh... you know. Hormones, girl's monthly problem..." Hopefully he would understand.
The Gryffindor smiled when he mentioned that she would be taller than him. "Wow, I don't know that you're actually not that tall." Although she knew that Henric was taller than him. "I am really looking forward for that wedding! Speaking of, where is your fiance? I rarely bumped into you two together." Was Benny too busy to accompany him for shopping or he simply just didn't like shopping at all? She was not judging, though. Ava was sure that everything went okay with these two.
He's going to get her some chocolate frogs? Ava couldn't help but smiled. "That's uh... very nice of you, Adi." Who doesn't love free stuffs, though? Not to mention that she could keep the galleons for herself and perhaps spend them for something else.
Adi eyed Ava, trying to decide if she was being fully honest. But since she attributed her mood to that time of the month he let the subject drop. Sort of. "I'm always there if you want to talk, you know. And don't always blame it on your monthly, okay?'' Was this weird? Ava talking about this with him?
Har har. She was kidding, right? She could see that he wasn't THAT tall. "You'll get to be a best girl,'' Adi added with a laugh. He was serious about that though. Ava and Lux were his best girl choices for now! "He's visiting his dragon at Ilia's place. He prefers her over me.'' Cue the wink to show that he was kidding. "Just as I rarely bump into you and Phillip.''
"No problem, Ava! So. You all set for your sixth year? And how's Teddy and Zhenny?" In the meanwhile, he continued checking out the shelves. Was there anything else he wanted?
Ah yes the standard sample of a Hogwartian's confectionary collection. "Good idea, I'm running low of chocolate fudge." he said as he grabbed a handful and dropped them into his basket "I'm fine, just chilling most of the summer, except for some excursions and parties." Henry should know about one of them since they saw each other in it.
"Yah yah shamples--" the leonine lad nudged his head for the badger boy to follow him. "Some kind of new bon bons." See, a whole tiered tray of them "I dunno if they're trying to give Bertie Botts a run for his money but theres a lot of flavors here." he says as he pops another bon bon in his mouth.
"So you went with Char to the party?" He smirked. He didn’t know about the Henry and his fellow Gryffie until the party, so it was quite a surprise seeing them together there. "And how's the rest of your summer turning out so far eh?"
As Tenacius grabbed some of the chocolate fudge, Henry did the same, tossing some into his basket. He liked the peanut butter fudge the best of the offered flavors though, so he made sure to get plenty of that as well. "Sounds like a great summer so far," he grinned. The holiday was about relaxing and doing what you wanted, right? He couldn't say his was exactly relaxing, but that wasn't a bad thing. "Mine's going really well, too." And he'd be happy to tell him all about it too.
But first some samples. Henry followed Tenacius over to where Sugarplum's was hosting some of their newest candies to try. Bertie Bott's wasn't his favorite, but he didn't often pass up free food. He selected a bright pink one and popped it in his mouth. "Not bad.. cotton candy." He grabbed a handful more to eat while he shopped.
He still needed to find something else new to try, maybe besides the samples, and he was about to ask Ace for any opinions when his Gryffinpal spoke first. "Char? Yeah, of course," he grinned. It took him a moment to realize which party he was talking about, but he remembered Ace being at the masquerade ball. "That was a lot of fun, wasn't it?" But something about the way Tenacius asked him made Henry pause. "You know she's my girlfriend, right?" Really, he thought the whole school knew they had been dating, but he might feel bad if one of his friends was left out of that information. But he'd be happy to tell anyone that, if they didn't know.
"Summer's been great! Super busy with Quidditch, but of course making time for friends and parties and all that. Plus, I got a part-time job." So yeah, super busy, but a fun kind of busy. "Oh! And something else awesome... guess what??" Henry grinned widely, but couldn't contain himself long enough to make him guess. "I got made prefect for Hufflepuff."

The girl had never been particularly athletically inclined and it wasn't a certainty her asthma would allow for such...er....thrilling activities as dodging bludgers while trying to stay airbourne.
The girl turned to the shelves again, trying to figure whether there was anything else she wanted in this aisle when Slate's suggestion happened.
JHKVDSFHDSGIUFSGLCJGISD!!!
"Yes!" So much enthusiasm springing between the two today. "That'd be PERFECT!!!! Then we could do it more often! And we'd be productive! And Mew would get used to just flying around us and having us while he's out and about!!" Slate was a genuis. He was wonderful at this good parenting strategies thing.
"I bet that'll even help him to not fly away when we take him onto the grounds later." 'Cause he'll be more used to them and all.
Slate nodded. He wasn't exactly sure how coordinated he was in the air, but it would at least be worth checking out and trying. He wasn't against trying things. Especially since it seemed like a big deal to people here.
Slate beamed proudly at Jessa's reaction. He couldn't help it. There was just something about her being so pleased with his suggestion that made it hard for him to hide any sort of cool reaction. He nodded. "Yes! Plus, family outings. He should see us together." Otherwise the poor bat might feel like he was living with two strangers.
"Exactly! He'll know where mum and dad and he should be with us."
Not in the sense that when Mew was comfortable enough to fly around he shouldn't, but so he knew where to come home to.

Pause.
"Remind me, who are you?"
How perfect the particular confection was was rather subjective as far as Zinnia was concerned - and she much preferred fresh fruit over the candied variety any day - so she refrained from commenting further in lieu of polite nod of the head.
"No?" she replied, blinking her big doe eyes at him and inadvertently flaunting her long lashes in the process. "I'm merely offering some much needed advice." Which had apparently fallen on empty ears considering he did not even own a house elf. This was...quite perplexing to her how few she had met since moving to London seemed to not own the basic necessities of high society living. Even more confusing were those who had the means to owning them but elected not to. "I do not," she said with a small shake of the head. She had never touched a frying pan.
"There is nothing to remind you of as this is our first encounter," she informed him casually, slipping into her Romanian accent slightly, selecting another packet of the same gum off the shelf and then turning her brown eyes back to his. "Zinnia Shacklebolt," she introduced while extending one of her slender arms towards him.

Hads was going to need another basket...would the shop care if she put an extension charm on the basket she was carrying? Maybe she should get help for her sweets addiction...
Naw.
Hadley rounded the corner and wait a minute, that hair looked familiar. Definitely a little badger. Hads smirked and tiptoed closer to the young Wright. When she was right behind the girl, she threw her hands over Isa's eyes and in a disguised voice said, "Guess who?"
Okay, that was probably enough candy. Although she enjoyed sweets, Isa did try to maintain a healthy balanced diet. There were some nutritional aspects that she had to pay extra attention to to ensure that she was getting enough of the right nutrients because she was a vegetarian. Many vegetarian food options were available at home and at Hogwarts, but Isa made an effort to choose healthy food when she could. She didn't need to get too many sweets.
Isa jumped when all of a sudden there were hands covering her face. What was happening? "Hads?" Isa couldn't think of anyone else who would greet her in this way. The soon to be a third year Hufflepuff turned around to see her Ravenclaw big sister. "Hads!" Isa had guessed correctly. "You scared me." Isa smiled at Hads and chuckled softly. "What have yu been up to this summer?"

Looking at her he smiled, "No but I'm sure we can think of something." He moved with her and watched as she paid for her candy. "Did you not get anything for yourself?"
Lily smiled warmly as RJ as he spoke and she shook her head, "No, I can't be mean to you. " She said with a warm smile in his direction.

She smiled up at him.. "We still have horseback riding to do.. as well as swimming.. and walking around my manor. " The blue eyed girl managed to point out as she paid for her candy and then picked up the bag of beans..
That really was a ton but she had a plan.. she'd need help from her cousin but she was sure she could do it..

This wasn't her first time she blamed hormones and monthly thingy (although most of them were truly the cause of her mood swings). Hopefully Adi didn't feel weird that she mentioned about this, heh. "Seriously, I'm okay. But thanks anyway." The Gryffindor responded and gave him a small smile.
Ava was not kidding about his height though, probably because she used to see all senior guys were that TALL and made her feel like a minion or something else. But she chose not to comment about his height and listened about the wedding. "You're going to pick me as your best girl?" She beamed. Ava had never been involved with a wedding before and this was such a HUGE HONOR for her. "Merlin, this is huge! I am so honored for this part!" She leaned into him and gave a huge tight hug. "So, when is the wedding? You can't keep it as a secret since now I AM your best girl, Aditya. I have to prepare the dress, the makeup, EVERYTHING!" It wasn't funny that she was appointed to be in the wedding but not knowing about the details. Wasn't that the best man/girl's job description?
Goodness, She didn't see that the question about him and Benny were rarely to be seen together could be a boomerang for her. Honestly, Ava even didn't know what about her and Phillip even though they decided to give their relationship a try once more. "Phillip is having a guys time with his wolfpack." She simply answered that. If she told Adi the truth, there's a possibility that he will be all big-brother-y and worst case scenario: caused Phillip in trouble. "I am not that type of girl who doesn't allow my boyfriend to hang out with his pack. Besides, I am busy with my part-time now."
Was it bad she said that she was SO ready for next term? Probably not. "Yeah, I am. I just can't wait to graduate now." Even though Ava still had zero idea about what should she do after Hogwarts. Her worst case scenario was waiting tables for the rest of her life if her OWL scores was... awful. But thankfully now Ava could breath a little. "Zhenny is fine, she's very busy with her healer internship. And Teddy.... Well, he's also good but still being Teddy, you know? He rarely leaves home and prefers his entire summer by reading." Another thing that she kept from Adi was the fact that she didn't go back home for summer and lived with her sister instead due to her problems with her mother. Her twin brother on the other hand, was being a good mama boy that he went home for summer. Needless to say that she rarely (or probably never) saw Teddy since the term ended.

He assumed other schools were like that as well. It was weird to see so many transfers and things with what his uncle told him about magical schools. "Oh I see." It was obvious this boy was no use to him. He couldn't be good to get to do his dirty work, plus he was getting bored with the conversation.
Yeah, he was over this conversation and was bored with this weirdo. He had been already placed in the not good enough for a Blaze list in Eddie's mind. "What house do you want in? I could see you as a Hufflepuff." Annoying and weird, yep that worked for him.
"Yeah they are good for that." He looked around put the basket down, because he had no intention of buying anything and turned to the boy. "This place is lame, see you around." He turned and pocketed a chocolate frog before heading out the door.
The kid might be listening but Koen could tell he either didn't believe what he was hearing or didn't agree with it. Either way he didn't care. It was his life and where he went previously and why no ones business. He shrugged his shoulders not really caring one way or the other.
Koen resisted the urge to laugh and roll his eyes at the boy. He was no Hufflepuff that was sure. This kid was to big for himself and seriously needed someone to knock him down to size a bit, his whole attitude and the way he talked just screamed that he thought himself better then everyone else. It was making the blonde sick to his stomach. "Same as my most of my family. Slytherin." If not Slytherin then Gryffindor like his mom.
Oh, good the kid was leaving. "Right." The less they saw each other the better. He already didn't like the kid and he was sure the kid didn't like him either.

Okay maybe he was sucking up just a little bit but he felt like he still needed to make up for earlier and that was the best way he knew how. He was going to be the bestest boyfriend ever.
"We do! We need to do all of those before we go back to school," he said with a grin. Maybe not all at once but definitely before they go back. He watched her curiously as she got the bag. Really...what was she going to do with all of that?
"Would you like something?" He looked around trying to find something that she might like. "CHOCOLATE FROGS!" He headed toward the display and grabbed a bunch of them. Yup. He was going to get his girlfriend her favorite candy.

Almost fit to burst, she tucked into a jelly slug to keep her from spilling all of the fun things at him and all of the information she had about the things she was interested in.
Tilting her head as she chewed the sweet in her mouth, Tilly listened to her newest friend tell her about his aspirations and nodded along. "As a Healer? Are you good? Have you saved anyone? Did you see anything fun? Tell me tell me tell me!!!!!!" What? She was interested!
Jimmy blinked and shook his head, chuckling a bit. "Nah, I've never paid attention really. And we don't have those kind of things in France," he explained. It was true! If they made special commemorative French coins, Jimmy had no idea about them. Not that he would collect them, of course. He'd rather spend every coin he had on traveling and saving up for his London move...
And now this girl was ASKING him to talk about himself?! Jimmy might have just found his soulmate. He grinned widely and folded his arms - it made his biceps look GREAT - and shrugged. "Nothing that cool, not yet at least. I just helped out doing paperwork for the Healers BUT I did get to sit in on some pretty cool cases. Like, one man accidentally turned his lower leg into a cactus," he told her. THAT had been a goofy one. "But mostly just people with really bad cases of the flu."

Not in the sense that when Mew was comfortable enough to fly around he shouldn't, but so he knew where to come home to.
"Oh! Oh! We can take him with us to the kitchen sometimes." They visited there for snacks together, occasionally. Mew would probably like to tag along as well. There was already one family outing planned out. "Sunday evenings by the lake? Won't have to be for too long, maybe an hour...hour and a half." Even with all the excitement of spending time with Mew, she wouldn't forget that Slate had other friends and possibly a million other things to do. An hour seemed reasonable.
"We'll have to be sure to show him around every corridor we know, that way he doesn't get lost in that maze of a place whenever he tries flying from one of us to the next." It'd taken her somewhere close to a year to fully learn the twists and turns of the castle, she could only imagine poor little Mew trying to navigate through it all.
"He'll sleep through the day so we've got that covered while we're at our classes. Him being nocturnal though...we'll need to sneak out some times..."

Hearing her he nodded with a big grin. "Definitely! I can show you my new hamster! We named him Jasper." He smiled as he paid for all of his candy and handed her one of the chocolate frogs with a grin. "Want to go somewhere else?"

Another thing that she kept from Adi was the fact that she didn't go back home for summer and lived with her sister instead due to her problems with her mother. Her twin brother on the other hand, was being a good mama boy that he went home for summer. Needless to say that she rarely (or probably never) saw Teddy since the term ended.
More eyeing. Adi would hate it if something was bothering the little sister and he couldn't help. "Not a problem!'' He grinned. No, he wasn't weirded out by this conversation. He was surely to have it one day with his future girl child/ children because he was confident that he was going to have one or two of those.
"YES!'' Adi half shouted in excitement. It wasn't his fault that his response was so LOUD. He just had to make a brouhaha. Whose wedding would not get them that way? "You are going to be one of them!'' he added, lowering his voice back to normal but grinning at the same time. Gosh, she was being demanding. "No chocolate frogs since you're being so demanding.'' Hehe. KIDDING! "I'm only pulling your legs. It's supposed to be on the last day of this year.'' That way he and Benny could start the new year as a married couple.
"Aha. He needs time away from you, does he?'' Adi teased and not in the slightest suspecting there was trouble in paradise. "I know you're not. You're a cool girlfriend, I'm sure. Though I sure am sorry for Phillip. He has to put up with you.'' Cue the grinning. "How's the job going? Earned a fortune as yet?''
As he listened to Ava, Adi quickly grabbed another load of the Frogs. Yep, there was enough for the both of them. "They both sound as though they're doing what they like, you know? Even Teddy sounds like he's enjoying himself. I bet you've given up trying to get him out of the house.'' He supposed he had better go pay for these now unless he was forgetting something...

Sugarplums was a definite stop on Olivia's weekend adventure in Diagon Alley. She needed to replenish her chocolate frog stash so that she could bring it with her to Paris. Sure, the chocolate was divine there but it was nothing like chocolate frogs and Olivia just had a hankering for those. As she walked down the aisles, she found herself picking up more and more things that perhaps she didn't need but things that she definitely wanted. Licorice wands, sour gummies.... Hmm... She stopped in her tracks and eyed the candy on the top shelf before pouting momentarily. Yep, there was no way she could possibly reach that.

Maybe there was someone taller that could help her?

Now that it was summer, Vivian had all the time in the world to go around for some adventure. Of course, her usual stop would be Diagon Alley. She had spent months away from here that she decided that the idea was definitely not unwelcome. Sure, Hogsmeade had places and shops to suit her needs too, but perhaps it just wasn't close to Diagon Alley in loads of aspects. Vivian's naturally adventurous soul was made for places like this, where she could roam around freely and explore... but not into Knockturn Alley, of course. Her parents made sure it was craved on her head.
Speaking of which, the blonde had a few things she needed to attend to. Stuff like buying treats for her owl and kneazle, and also for her baby niffler Goldilocks, who was a lovely addition to the family for the summer. She also needed to take a look at the stuff at Quality Quidditch Supplies because the soon-to-be fifteen year old just wanted to admire some of the brooms in there. But of course, Vivian's priorities were laid and she definitely made a beeline for the sweets shop. She wanted all the candies from there, marshmallows and licorice wands and chocolate frogs. The mere thought of it already excited her.
Skipping through the displays, Vivian accidentally bumped into another girl. "Oh, Merlin!" The blonde said, a little alarmed. Oh no, her careless self was showing again. "I'm sorry...." But then Vivian took a better look at the girl she had just bumped and...
SQUEAL!
"Olivia!" BEAR HUG.

Elisa was excited and nervous all at once when it came to this summer. She loved shopping with her sister since school took up alot of their fun times together. There was alot happening more than usual since they graduated PWS and now... Elisa was in the mood for something sweet. Maybe get some more chocolate frogs or something.
"Sis, look!" Elisa pointed out tower of all the sweet candies. "Want to get some?"

Olivia nearly dropped her basket filled with delicious treats (probably more treats than she could possibly ever need but they were all worth it when someone bumped into her but she somehow managed to maintain her balance. Delicious packets of liquid sunshine didn't deserve crashing into the ground. "I'm sorry..." she began to say automatically, glancing down at her basket, and then she paused. Why on earth was she apologizing when she hadn't bumped intot he other girl? She blinked, glanced up, and she grinned. Olivia knew that girl. She would have known her anywhere. A GIANT smile graced her lips.
"VIVIAN?" cried Olivia when she suddenly felt warm, snug arms around her. She returned her friend's hug eagerly. It was so good to see her! She placed her basket onto the ground as it was getting a little heavy for her arms. "How are you? How's your summer? What are you up to?" Merlin. So many questions for the poor She-Snake. Olivia just wanted to make sure that her friend was having a fantastic start to the summer!

Vivian had loosened up on stepping on people's feet. She usually would have panicked and apologised endlessly, much like that time when she had stepped on Andrei's foot. The fact that it was a friend instead of a stranger made her calm down and she was glad the person didn't bark at her for such an accident in the first place. The blonde wiggled in place as she hugged the older girl, and then released with a beam on her face. After that Ancient Runes class together, Vivian felt she needed to hang out with her more. They made a great team then!
"That's me! That's me!" Yes, this was Vivian! The sight of a familiar person made things incredibly better. "I'm okay! I'm sorry for bumping into you." Knowing it was Olivia made her feel more guilty. "I hope I didn't hurt you. My summer's great so far! I'm thinking piano lessons and Quidditch matches with my auntie." Which were both fun, of course! Spending time with Auntie Elise was always a good time.
Vivian noticed the basket nearby. Hmm... "Were you candy shopping, too?" she asked. She'd love to have a buddy in this case!

Why did they have to go to Diagon Alley? She was really mad at her parents for making her come shopping with them here. ALL the kids were running around excited because they were getting to go to Hogwarts in September and she was not going to get to go. It wasn't fair at all and she didn't understand why the world hated her. Why was it her that got the bad gene to be a squib? Why couldn't it have been her sisters? She hated everything about this place right now and she wasn't hiding it.
Half looking at the candy when her sister pointed it out she shrugged. "Sure we can if you want. Will dad let us buy them?" She knew mom would only allow them one a piece saying candy wasn't all that good for them, but that was the plus of having two houses and two sets of parents. Rules were different. She turned and started looking at the fudge though, "I might get this instead of just candy." What kind would she get though?
Sam was pretty sure that Dora's Uncle Spike somehow managed to have a sweeter tooth than she did, so it seemed like this might be a good place to come get him a thank you present.
Well, part of a thank you present. She'd already got him a plant in a nice ceramic pot, see. But she wanted to get him something else too. Because he was a Herbologist, and what if he already had ten of what she'd chosen?
She headed for the chocolate aisle first, picking up a caramel bar for herself and looking along the shelf for the mixed boxes. They weren't her preference - less chocolate for your money than solid bars, and always a couple of meh fillings - but it seemed more fitting for a present.
Milk chocolate... Dark chocolate... Choices, choices.

Olivia beamed. It was really great to see her partner in crime from Ancient Runes. They ought to partner up for more things or just hang out in the future cause that class was a breeze! 15/10 would run away from crazy Trowbuckles with Vivian. "Oh no worries at all! You barely bumped into me." No bruises, nothing! Olivia was a okay. And she didn't fall over which was a bonus.
Hearing about Vivian's start to the summer sounded wonderful. Piano lessons was something that Olivia loved herself whereas Quidditch... She wasn't a big fan of it but if Vivian enjoyed it, then that was all that mattered there. Olivia tended to avoid flying wherever possible though she had improved greatly over the course of the past two years. "And when you bumped into me, I was probably standing in the centre of the aisle trying to talk myself out of getting more candy," she laughed and motioned to her basket that was about a quarter filled with chocolate frogs and licorice wands. Ah yes, she was here for candy shopping. "I am. I'm trying to debate getting something else but I can't decide on what."
And then the 'too' part of Vivian's question clicked a little later than usual for the Lioness so an even bigger smile tugged on her lips. OH. GOTCHA. "We should shop together!" It just be like Ancient Runes class minus the angry adorable Bowtruckle.

Vivian was one who always wanted assurance when things like this happened. She was glad that she hadn't seriously hurt Olivia, but the tiny ounce of guilt left in her still lingered. "Still, I'm sorry," she said for the last time to make sure and offered a tiny smile. She hadn't meant to bump her in the first place. Careless Vivian was careless. SIGHS.
The blonde giggled at Olivia's next comment. Apparently she also had a mad love for candies and sweets. See? This is why they were friends. "What's wrong with having more candy?" Because the last time Vivian checked on her mental rule book, there wasn't any restriction about getting more goodies. She sent a wide beam at Olivia, but her eyes widened when she saw the older girl's basket. "Is that a year's worth of candy?" She joked with the beam still on her face. Looking at the different displays, Vivian's eyes scanned the variety to see what else she should get. "What about some fudge? And... oh! Sugar quills!" Vivian loved those! She liked to nom on those sugary candies while she studied and did homework. There were still so many sweets around and... yes, Vivian could see now why Olivia struggled with what to buy or not."How about you? How's your summer so far?" Details! She wanted to know!
So Olivia was candy shopping! Obviously, but it made Vivian wiggle in excitement. "We should!" The blonde replied happily, but she wasn't planning to buy that much as Olivia was. Maybe just a couple so she could share with her dad and sister later on. This was a better way of bonding than nearly getting attacked by a cute bowtruckle, to be honest.

Milk chocolate... Dark chocolate... Choices, choices.
After his talk failed candy stealing attempt with Zoryn , Dorian was smiling at the thought of having made a friend. At least, he thought they were friends now.... He shrugged his shoulders as he made his way towards the counter to stand in line with his father when something caught his attention.
Turning direction so smoothly, it was as he had been walking towards the chocolate section right away. He had totally forgotten to ask if his dad wanted to buy a chocolate frog for him! Apart from this, something or rather someone else caught his attention as well. Why did that girl look like she had a hard time chosing which chocolate she wanted? Didn't everyone know that "If you can't choose, buy them both" he said , crossing his arms over each other and nodded his head.
