Nyssa nodded but was still a bit confused. "I can see that I guess. How different can you two be though?"

Jake shrugged. "He likes spending all his time away and working in the Ministry. I like spending time with people and being outside."

"You are just at different points in your life," Nyssa said. "He just needs to remember that, as do you. I'm sure being an only child doesn't help though. Colin got in all the arguments that happened when my parents were trying to figure that out."

Nyssa took Jake's silence as a sign he didn't want to talk about this. "Sorry," she muttered sheepishly looking back at her knees.

"Don't worry about it," Jake said. "I don't like talking about him and I probably never will. What are you thinking about doing with your dad?"

"I suppose I'll have to tell him sooner than I thought," Nyssa said. "I wish I could at least do it over the phone... it takes so long to get letters from home."

Jake nodded. "Maybe you can go to Hogsmeade this weekend and get one of their faster owls," he suggested.

"It is all becoming more apparent," Jake said. "How does muggle post work?"
