"Excuse me?" I asked, stopping in front of a tall, blonde man.
"I'm in a bit of a hurry, if you don't mind" He said rather irritably. He then walked away.
How rude, I thought to myself. I tried again, "Excuse me." I had stopped in front of a red-headed women.
"Yes" She asked kindly.
"Would you mind pointing me in the direction of a wand shop?"
"Oh! We were heading there ourselves! James here needs to get a wand." She motioned toward the boy standing next to her.
"Excellent! Mind if we tag along?"
"No, not at all!"
"Come, Thomas." I told my son.
