Ernie watched Justin's reaction and can only begin to imagine Hann's. "I know," he said, "but maybe if it's not linked to the dream it wouldn't be so bad. I can probably hide it for a day or two and hopefully by then she'd forget about the dream, at least."
Ernie shook his head. "I would've noticed it the night before--I know it wasn't there last night," he said, the anxiety quite clear in his voice. "I'd much prefer if that were the case though."
"I'm going to stop by St. Mungo's sometime before I head back this afternoon. Hopefully I can get out of work early enough that she wouldn't notice the difference." Ernie just about never left work early, especially on a day like today.
