Nika's face fell, but she nodded.
"Yeah, work and marriage. I understand." She didn't want to understand. Nika couldn't let him slip out of her life so easily.
"Yeah. Mr. Squides." Nika wasn't sure if she wanted to call the squid that anymore either. With Rex gone it just wouldn't have the same effect.
"Can we write to each other?" Nika raised her eyebrows in hope.

When she saw Nika's face fall a little, she piped up, "Don't worry! We'll be able to sing it next term if we learn over the summer!" Elyon giggled when Nika started getting very excited about the mermaids. "Of course they're real! I haven't ever seen one either, but I do know that some live at the bottom of the lake! I read it in Hogwarts, A History my favourite book! Oh, if I told my mum, she wouldn't like it, she hates magic. My daddy's very sick, and if he passes over the summer, Mummy's going to send us to an orphanage. I think he'll be fine though!" She sure did hope so! Hogwarts was Elyon's home and she didn't want to leave it!
"Thank you Nika!" Elyon was super flattered, she was blushing! "I'm so glad to help you! And I'm glad you keep the necklace on! If only I'd been able to make mine before all of my things went missing! But even if people did steal them, they would've returned them by now! So there!" She said triumphantly.
A small smile made it way unto Nika's face.
"You always know the right thing to say." Nika didn't know why she had said it at the moment, but it's true. Nika couldn't stay upset knowing that she had another good friend to keep her company while the rest were graduating.
"Okay! I will try to learn, I really will." Nika made a mental note in her head to learn the language. Of course she wasn't sure how it was going to be done, but she will find a way! She always does.
"I always believed in them, but everyone always told me they are not real. Same with unicorns, but professor Saylen says they are real too!" Nika bounced in her seat. Slowly she is getting back to normal.
"Oh. My dad isn't very fond of magic and I don't think my sister likes it very much either. Ever since I got my Hogwarts letter she has been sort of distant." Nika tried not to think of her sister too much because every time she did it just ended in more tears. Maybe her sister is jealous or something? Hmmm... An orphanage?!?
"Oh Elyon I'm sure that if anything does happen, I'm sure it won't, that you can stay with me! At my house." Of course her parent's might not agree, but she will find a way to convince them.
"And maybe your brother too. I've met him! He's very nice." "Well people shouldn't steal! It probably is the nargles." Nika nodded her head in agreement.
"Everyone I've met here is so nice." Except for those select Slytherins who have been not so nice.
"Maybe I can help you look for your shoes?" Quote:

No matter where I am I'll always be with you two. No matter what." Halle said smiling softly. 'No matter what. Even if something bad happens to me or even one of (hope that never happens) I'll be there.' Halle thought.
"Okay!" Nika started to cheer up. The holidays. They were always there. Maybe she could find a way to spend more time with her seventh year friends then.
"No matter what." Nika echoed Halle's words. Only three words, but three very powerful words. She looked around the table and eyed some pudding.
"Maybe some pudding can cheer me up some more" She reached over and added some to her plate.
