Terence's - Morning, 27 July 1997
Charlie waited for Ginny to wake up, making sure that it was really all right with her, before leaving the Burrow. He debated a moment and then apparated outside. The sun was still low in the sky, casting long shadows on the ground. Droplest of mosture graced the leaves, and the air was chill in the early hours. Charlie didn't have to wait long. Asa cracked the door open to see who it was, and granted him access after a moment.
The walk through the dark hallways was done in silence. Charlie never knew what to say to the house elf, lacking the ease that Terence had. When he finally arrived to Terence's room, he took a deep breath and walked in. The curtains were open, and light bathed the room. A tray with a half eaten breakfast sat among papers. Terence seemed to have his own way to cope with things, paperwork certainly was less violent and self destructive than Charlie's own methods.
He stood at the far end, his hands on his back pocket. "The insanity never ends. Still interested?"
