A clear schedule was a rarity that Amelia Bones had sworn to herself that she was going to take advantage of whenever she got the chance to. It wasn’t just being the Head of her department that was forever keeping her busy, but her entire mentality towards work in general often saw her putting the endless pile of paperwork ahead of taking time for herself.
She had practically been ushered out of her office and out of the Ministry when she had mentioned that she’d have the time to visit the Hogsmeade Winter market, and she had to admit that when she had actually arrived in the old cobbled streets filled with various stalls and vendors. that it was actually rather nice to take an afternoon to herself. She had been busy minding her own business, glancing around at the various items for sale, when she suddenly felt someone bump in to her, glancing around to find that it was Dolores.
“You’re the one that bumped in to me, Dolores… Perhaps if weren’t in such a rush, you’d have seen me standing here.” Amelia replied with a smile. “Afternoon to your self, I take it?”
Dolores Laughed at the woman’s comment “You stepped in my-” she then realized who it was that she bumped into. “Amelia Bones. I did not think you lived outside of your office.” she seemed quite surprised to see her colleague out and about. “Yes, I took the day to wander about the winter market, this is the only time i get to buy my favorite tea sets from this particular vendor.” she admitted.
“And you, Amelia, what are you shopping for? a new dress...I hope?” those last words muttered looking over Amelia’s outfit, clearly judging her choice of attire as per usual. “I will be heading to the dress shop after this if you wish to join me, we can have a girls day out!- or will you have to get back to the office? I am sure your department is quite busy, yes?” she assumed, her stare moving away from Amelia and back to the tea cups “My department is doing well, All in order, just how i like it. So, I took the day off today.” she boasted.
