Tayla breathed in deeply, trying to keep calm. A few Slytherins were starting to watch and that didn't make her feel any better.
"You must have dropped it when I bumped into you...in the train, remember?" Tayla began shakily, struggling to keep her voice still. She wasn't going to let this girl get away with thinking she stole it.
