Astoria made some lame excuse to get away from her mother, who was having a panic attack about the chaos going on in the Wizarding world today, even though we weren't anywhere near the problem areas. Really, the woman just liked to have something to complain about, and to fret over, and really, Astoria was glad it wasn't her for once, as she seemed to be her mother's favorite problem to fret about. She apparated close to the city and headed to the shop on foot. Of course, it would be one more thing for her mother to freak out about if she found out Astoria had been around muggles that day as well.
She found the shop easily enough, and though it was a bit busy, she pushed her way in and made it to the counter, getting a few unpleasant looks from people who thought she was cutting to the front. "Excuse me," she asked one of the women behind the counter. "I'm looking for Bianca Dunstan, I'm supposed to be meeting her here."
