Eloise decides to hunt for a job.
Eloise awoke with a jolt. She sprung out of bed and took a shower; straightened her hair and didnt like it. She hopped back in the shower and started all over again. Three showers and a full makeup bag later, she glanced in the mirror and was satisfied with her appearance. It only took four hours, she reminded herself. She grinned and moved her hair around until it framed her face elegantely. She sported a chic outfit; perfect for job hunting.
She grabbed a donut and headed for the door. She locked it firmly behind her and pressed on into the street.
Diagon Alley wasnt like she remembered it as a young student. It didnt hold the same excitement. She grabbed a cup of coffee from the cafe across the street, and finished it quickly.
She went to various stores and filled out applications for jobs; none of which seemed promising. Oh well, she told herself. Maybe it was the coffee breath or the donut crumbs on my shirt, she laughed.
She came across an interesting book store, and decided to stop inside. Of course, it's what her mother would have done, and being her mothers' child, she carried the same love for books. She perused the aisles for an interesting read when she thought she spotted a familiar face. A face she hadnt seen for quite some time.
