Chapter 492 - Abbott Cokeworth Household (2/2)
Andrew glanced over Rowan in envy and said, ”It's not really fair that you can use your wand over the summer.”
”Pass the exams equivalent to the N.E.W. T's and you can too,” Rowan smirked back.
”No, thank you,” Andrew said with a violent shudder of terror.
Rubbing his hands all sinister like, Andrew says, ”So what should we do first? The movies? Or should I introduce you to some muggle novelty?”
Rowan arches her eyebrow and drily murmurs, ”Andrew, I was raised in this muggle town for the first eleven years of my life. I'm fairly certain that I know more about this town than you do and are much more familiar with muggle studies than you are at present.”
”I forgot,” Andrew sheepishly said with a shrug. ”But no, really, is this the town where you grew up in?”
”Mm, Lily lives here,” Rowan replied as they made their way out of the bedroom and down the light-colored hallway.
”Evans lives here?” Andrew exclaimed as they made their way to the emerald painted door.
Gesturing at the door color with one finger, Rowan stares pointedly at Andrew. Andrew shrugs and says, ”We're purebloods mostly. We've got a lot of Hufflepuffs and Slytherins in our family. Mostly Hufflepuff than Slytherin really, but uncle always personally thought he'd be Slytherin if he'd been able to have been sorted.”
Rowan nods in approval as she moves out of the way as the blond six-year-old runs down the hallway fleeing the flaxen haired four-year-old brother. The two-year-old little blond girl in a cute pink dress sits on the floor playing with blocks and cars. Her doll lays on the ground sadly abandoned a few feet away from her.
”Mr. and Mrs. Abbott, if it's alright with you, I'd like to visit my friend Lily Evans,” Rowan said to the sitting couple. ”I hope that won't be a problem?”
”The Evans family?” Mrs. Abbott blinked in surprise.
”Yes.”
”Oh, well, I don't see why that would be a problem,” Mrs. Abbott said as she glanced at her husband in confirmation. ”But please be back no later than dinner time at six. We'd like to go all out to eat tonight.”
”Will do,” Rowan replied as Andrew happily escaped the house with her.
