Kurumi nodded as she bit on her lower lip in attempt to keep the tears in. She didn't want to cry over this anymore. "
I know," she smiled in response. "
I'm just...I'm not ready to talk about it yet."
She looked at Hugo with shimmering violet eyes hoping that he understood it wasn't a matter of trust that was preventing her from speaking freely to him. It was so much more.
"
Not really," she squeaked happy that he had changed the subject. "
Oh, but my father did owl me to say that he got a job working for the Daily Prophet. So I can spend more of the summer here instead of back home in Japan."
Now THAT put a smile on her face.
"
What about you?"
