Hermione nodded her head and granted him a small smile. Startled by the expression, Antonin took a few seconds to return it. After their short kiss the night before, a surprisingly pleasant evening passed. Little was spoken and there wasn't an effort to kiss her again, but it was a good start to lull her husband into the false sense of security she desired. Deciding to keep up the friendly façade from the day before in hopes that he soon would feel comfortable confiding in her again, she stood a few steps away from him watching him prepare their evening meal. A little friendly conversation could only help matters.
