“Can’t we just pretend there will be?”
Pandora chuckled and rolled her eyes as he picked her up. “Now show me the room.”
‘You sure you want to see it?” he asked her, stopping outside the spare room.
“Yeah.” Ron kept a hold of her as he opened the door. Just as he said, the room was empty; not only was there no carpet but the wall hangings were also
