Walking away from the Potters, Mandy managed to catch the end of the conversation-- James Potter was missing-- Poor Harry. She felt her heart sink, and she smiled and stopped to talk to a few alumni as she recognized, and some of the other students while she waited. She couldn't drink in punch through the lump in her throat. How did she soothe him after this?
She stood off to the side for a few moments, trying to think of what to say or what to do. She was pretty sure everyone else was busy with their dates or their friends, they wouldn't notice her.
