A tiny smile was given for a brief moment and than was gone. This time Dahlia's hand was back up in the air before she had even given herself time to process the response, let alone think of her own. "Personally I would like to think that was Dumbledore's reason for not telling Harry. Or at least one of the reasons. What if he had told Harry before he had been ready?"

Every action has a reaction, whether it be positive or negative. One little change could cause a huge rippling effect in any situation.
