It was also why she was walking towards the Whomping Willow, with a rolled-towel wedged underneath her arm, sandals on her feet, and over-sized sunnies sat on her head. Why she hadn't ever chosen this tree for her look-out point was absolutely peculiar! It was perfect. It's long arms provided plenty of shade and it's rather large trunk would be a useful backing.

Did she have any idea that this tree was the Whomping Willow? Absolutely not.

It hadn't begun thrashing about yet.
Over the last week, Jó had spent every free moment out in the grounds. Between lessons and meals, he'd been enjoying the end of the summer weather before the autumn brought in chillier winds. When the winter rolled around, Jó was happy again, but that bit in between... No, thank you.

Today, though, he didn't have his broom with him. He was just wandering around, hoping he'd find something fascinating or find one of his friends. And it seemed that luck was on Józef's side because up ahead was none other than Nina.

Niiiiina. SIGH. She was even pretty from behind.

But maybe luck was actually on her side that day - a frown crossed Józef's face as he saw her heading DIRECTLY FOR THE WHOMPING WILLOW.

Was she CRAZY?! "NINA," he shouted across the grounds, setting off at a run towards her. When he reached her, he grabbed her arm and tugged her backwards, hopefully not surprising her too much. He HAD shouted in advance.
