[A dream like this stirs up memories that Naomi has long since tried to keep dead and buried. But after her surprise reunion with little Kay and her evening out at the local jazz club with a certain religious figure, all of those false life emotions are crowding in her mind and it is suddenly very difficult to pick through which are real and which are only imitation.
Thankfully, Naomi can distract herself from that mess by introducing herself to the woman who is obviously Draco`s mother.]
Mrs. Malfoy, [she greets with a warm smile despite the early hour.] it`s a pleasure to finally meet you after hearing so much from your son.
[Narcissa's eyes don't move away from Draco, her fingers tracing his cheek lightly and held his hand close to her. She's delighted to hear that Draco has spoken of her before she arrived. She's not surprised at all, of course. But hearing it is always a pleasure, though Draco's state doesn't make her feel any better.]
I wish I could say it is a pleasure as well. [Her fingers lace with Draco's and leans her head on his hand. She's much too distressed.]
[Her voice is soft and almost dead-like. That's how she feels, really.]
Not soon enough, I'm afraid. [She speaks in a whisper as she stares at her sleeping son, her eyes begin to shine once more. But she forces herself to take a breath and remain calm.]

Is this common among others?

But I can assure you that he'll wake up soon without any troubles.

Are you certain? [It's so hard to even bring herself to speak.] How long do they particularly last?
