Faith always found herself in odd places when she read. It had been a Hogsmeade day that day, and while most people had gone home, Faith had found herself under the protective eye of the owner of Honeydukes, a lovely man, who had a lovely wife, and they had a lovely home above the shop. Because so few people came in here anymore, Faith had set up shop, actively watching the cash register, while at the same time reading. It had been super quiet for an hour or so, when Faith had decided the position she was reading in was super uncomfortable, so Faith found herself laying the floor behind the counter, legs propped up against the wall, holding her book above her head, snacking on a licorice wand as she read her book.
It was getting late, but Faith really didn't care, she was really into her book, learning about a potion that made your hair change colors depending on your mood for three days after you took the potion. It was very interesting of a story on how the potion had come to be, and she was just getting to some of the main ingredients, when she heard the door open, someone sounded out of breath. Stretching, Faith went to stand up, when suddenly she saw a face, with a child, and the child was floating.
Faith watched in silence as the woman floated the child down the stairs and into the basement, before running off again. Faith waited until the door closed before she stood up and set her book down. She stared at the door, waiting for the woman to come back, before sighing and heading downstairs to where the little girl was. "Hey.." She said crouching down in front of her. "What's your name?" The little girl was sucking her thumb, looking frightened. "Abbey.." She whispered, looking up at Faith, and smiling. "Aww, come here Abbey.. let's see if we can find out where your mum ran off to okay?" Faith said with a smile, picking up the little girl.
Walking up the stairs, Faith held the girl protectively, she was scared, and Faith wasn't quite sure why. "What happened honey.. can you tell me?" Faith asked, getting to the top of the stairs and heading towards the front of the shop. "Doggie got Mama.." She said softly, looking shy and absolutely adorable. "Well I'm sure she'll be okay.. let's see if she's outside okay?" Faith said and opened the front door, stepping out onto the street with Abbey still in her arms.
