She had thought about going to the station but well she knew it would probably have ended in a row, and they used to be real close.

"Yes I really left the country." Laura repeated. "I spend the summer at a house in America until the last few weeks of the school holidays when I spent it in Diagon Alley." Laura hoped her sister wasn't too cross with her. "And I'll Owl then, though I doubt they were worried." Laura wondered where her sister had been, she thought her sister had stayed at home.

Lana was not at all pleased with what her sister was telling her and she was actually rather put out at the way her sister was telling her these things. All summer, she had be made to feel like the terrible daughter because of her own actions, but in reality; she was actually the good one. "So you think just completely cutting yourself from everyone is going to make things better?" she asked in a shocked tone. It sounded like that was just going to be the way her sister was intending on dealing with things. "No contact for months? That's what you call a break?"

"They spent all summer worried about you!" Her sister really had no idea what they had done to their parents over the summer. "Everytime they owled or called me, they asked about you. I should have known some thing wasn't right," she scoffed at herself. "I spend the summer in the city and biking around the countryside. I wasn't home but for maybe a week this whole summer," she finally admitted. There were of course more details, but those were really of no importance at the moment.
