Jasmine's head was spinning. There were so many people that she wanted to see and so little time. Here came one of them now. "Hi Zhenya", Jasmine said with a cheerfulness she was struggling to maintain. Zhenya was the sweetest Slytherin she had ever met. If ever there was reason to question the sorting hat.......

Jasmine returned Zhenya's hug then looked directly at her. "I don't like goodbyes so how about we say, until we meet again? I'm so sorry that we didn't have more time to get to know each other better. I enjoyed working with you so much." It was really too bad that they'd only recently had a chance to work together. Jasmine was sure that they could have been great friends.

Trying to change the subject fom goodbye to something more positive, Jasmine asked a question. "So what will you be up to this summer? Big plans in the works?"
