She smiled, but there was hesitation in it. "Good," she said quietly. Hestia knew that to be true, even though it took a moment to be sure. She was better than yesterday, hopefully not as good as tomorrow. That was the plan at least. Hestia turned to the window, her smile improving. "I have to warn you, they're dreadfully cute."
Hestia laughed a bit, "I was looking for a cat too." She smiled over at Hermione again, "So is it just you and Crookshanks? It's been just Daniel's old hound and I since I sent Samantha off to Hogwarts in September." She couldn't wait for the girl to come home on holiday.
