If there was ever solid gold proof to how badly Katie needed a break it was the fact that she was still at the hospital. She'd visited the handful of people she'd intended to and had left the ward over half an hour ago now, but the short walk to the Floo had presented her with the sign for the tearooms. She briefly considered ignoring her gut instinct, knowing she needed to get home to sort dinner, but knowing that as soon as she stepped out of the grate at home meant it'd be hours before she'd be afforded the time to process all that she'd seen and heard during the past couple of hours and she gave in and headed for the stairs.
Katie had taken her freedom for granted all those months ago. If the girl she'd been only a little more than a year ago now had known that her future self would be sitting alone in a cramped hospital cafe, eating a soggy grilled cheese toastie and staring into a cooling cup of weak tea and calling it a well-earnt break...
She shook her head. The place was packed which was somewhat comforting, though the fact that most people were accompanied by somebody else wasn't one that was lost on her. Katie didn't mind being alone. The alternative- at least a few short months ago- would have been to have come with Oliver, though that option now wasn't at all appealing. In fact, Katie hadn't even told him that she'd be visiting today. Instead she'd grabbed her things, spoken with Remus and had left instructions with the nanny.
And now, now she'd lost her appetite, and was wishing more than anything that the mug in front of her had been a glass and that the beige liquid inside it was something much stronger than tea.
