"Hmm?" Hermione just watched her mother until she caved, "if "I told you so’ is the only thing you can say it’s better to keep silent isn’t it?" she blinked and grinned at her daughter, who blushed. "I told your father Friday night that this day would come. To be fair, I was expecting it perhaps a year from now, but your father and I both trust your judgement." she took Hermione's hand again, "If you’re happy, then we’re happy for you darling." Hermione got up, rounded the table and hugged her mother tightly about the shoulders.
