"Madre mía," he said under his breath with a chuckle, stepping lightly to straighten a row of wand boxes as he spoke. "Has it really been an hour already? I trust the wait was… well spent?"
Without hesitation, he dipped beneath the counter, his hands emerging with the wand box and the bag of her other purchases, all neatly gathered together. He set them on the counter then knelt slightly, adjusting the box so that it sat at the perfect angle.
When he opened it, the wand revealed itself: delicate floral engravings curling along the handle, white-petaled blooms etched with precision in a pearlescent paint, each center gleaming with tiny citrine stones. Victor's fingers lingered on the edge of the box for a brief moment, brushing away an imagined speck of dust, before he tilted it gently toward her, echoing the careful gesture he had made during her fitting.
"As requested," he said softly, the corners of his mouth lifting into a small, encouraging smile. He inclined his head slightly, a subtle invitation for her to reach out. "Go ahead, pick it up. Feel for the warmth. I can perform only basic checks for magical conductivity myself… so let's ensure it still recognizes you."
He stepped back a fraction, hands folding loosely behind his back, posture relaxed but attentive. “It has been indeed,” Saina remarked brightly, her face seemingly glowing with the anticipation of seeing her completed wand. “I think I may have had too much sugar?” Sai giggled. “Butterbeer and ice cream… but I don’t have either regularly so I guess this one time is okay.” Her daddy hadn’t disagreed, and she knew better than to take advantage of his indulgence.
Now for the grand moment…!
Unable to tear her gaze away from Victor’s every move, she held her breath. And nearly fainted when she saw the absolutely gorgeous result before her. Needless to say Saina was completely at a loss for words at that moment.
Thankfully, the words being said to her, and that warm smile of the shopkeeper’s, were encouragement enough for her to extend her dominant hand to gently lift the wand out of its box. ‘Gently’ because the girl was slightly nervous about breaking? injuring? the thing. Hoping with all her heart that she was still recognised, Saina curled her fingers around the top. Immediately, a surge of warmness surged through her arm and all through her body. And was it just her or did she feel a gentle zephyr, almost like the Universe was offering its blessing upon the pair. It was all enough to jolt her from speechlessness. Squeee! “It does recognise me!” Was it possible that the wand felt like it fit even more snuggly in her hand this time around? “The engraving is nothing but pure perfection. It is exactly as I imagined. Thank you!” Sai beamed her gratitude at Victor. The wand was nestled back into its box with her thinking how pitiful it was that there was a long waiting period {at least in her mind} until she was able to use it again at Hogwarts. “Please convey my gratitude to your staff that worked on the engraving. They are quite talented.” |
