Higgs frowned at the suggestion that St Mungo's wouldn't be able to help if Ashleigh were to go to see a healer there. He wasn't too convinced that was true, not when she was having issues with eating. "Perhaps you should see someone?" Higgs suggested. "A consistent lack of appetite can't be very good," he said, despite it being a rather obvious thing to state. Higgs was sure that Ashleigh was aware of how not eating wasn't a good thing, but there were no other suggestions he could think of making. Whatever had been in the chocolates seemed to still be affecting people, perhaps whoever was researching what had gone on (because someone had to be), could help with at least an advice or something. Certainly more so than Higgs would be knowledgeable to do.
Whilst Higgs did want to carry on the discussion, he was aware that it wasn't exactly a pleasant one, so when Ashleigh asked about his holiday plans with Alicia, Higgs smiled softly. "I am looking forward to it," he nodded. The plan to ask Alicia to join him on a holiday had been something Higgs had been planning for a while. It was convenient that she had by now quit her job, but his planning had started well before then, so even if she hadn't, he had already booked the time off for them. "It'll be nice, I think," he said because that was really it. He had promised Alicia a holiday years ago and then their marriage had fallen apart, but the wish to go away, to have a nice time with each other, that was still a good idea. Besides, Higgs somewhat felt that they really needed that right now. "I'll make sure we find you something you can at least pretend to enjoy," Higgs told Ashleigh teasingly.
