Sadie noticed he didn't answer her question, but instead turned a couple around on her. She supposed that was fair, she was the outlier here. "No," she shook her head slowly, frowning. She hadn't been allowed to go, or so she was told. Sadie didn't remember much of her childhood or her early teenage years, unfortunately. She was told had too many instances of accidental magic that it wasn't safe for her to have one. At least that was what her uncle had said when she had last asked.
"I've been, um, ill, for most of my life, so it's not something I could do." The headaches, the dizziness, the balance problems; all of it was a lot to handle even now as an adult. As a child it must have made things very difficult. "I would have liked too, though." She assumed he had, considering he was from Hogsmeade and the school wasn't very far away. Just a glimpse and Sadie would fall in love, she just knew it. There had been dreams of a large castle every now and then, of a lake, wide and dark, all these little nooks and crannies to hide or escape to. It was just her imagination running away with her, but they were enticing.
