Change is on the Horizon
Completely unsatisfied, Severus returned home a few hours later. He was oddly silent at dinner, something that worried Hermione.
Contributing it to Severus' unwillingness to return to work the next day, she tried to brush her concerns off. But when he barely said anything to her as they went about their nightly routine, she began worrying again. What was bothering him so much?

"Work?"
"Yes, school…"
"I'm not going to work."
"What? Why not?"
"I asked for a month off. Did I forget to tell you?"

So sorry I missed a few days updating. A big scary English paper will do that to you. Thanks for being patient!
