Dear Miss Lucille Flint,It has not been long since they have left, yet I already miss my siblings. Rosie isn't much on talking yet. Who knows, perhaps we will have an early bloomer in the house and she will be saying things at random. Not random to her of course, but still.
Perhaps you should write her, if you wish. I have never been disowned, but it seems that one would feel unwelcome to communicate with their family after everything has happened. I'm sure she would treasure a letter from you.
I find myself thanking you for your kindness once more. Though I do fear that by now, not speaking of my brother would only be selfish on my part. He saved King and Jolie's lives. Him and my uncle. I miss him, and I wish I could tell him that.
I don't know if you are aware of this, but King is a prefect! I am rather proud of this. I was never a prefect, though I never had an interest in being one anyway. Still, I wonder what it's like for him. As a sixth year, this is his second year acting as a role model for his fellow Hufflepuffs. Sybille is one of those Hufflepuffs. Mother is rather pleased by this. I think she still wishes I had been a Hufflepuff. I enjoyed being in Ravenclaw. The tower was nice, and the views at night could be quite dazzling.
I took on my career to make a difference. Education is important, I feel. I suspect this is why I am a Ravenclaw. Doing something that one loves and finds important is never a waste.
While your life goals so far have not been reached, I do hope that you have another opportunity to find another passion.
Truthfully, I do wish to find love. Growing up, I watched my parents be in love. Uncle Hubert and aunt Brenda as well. Even aunt Jade and her husband seem to be in love, in their own way. When we had supposedly been orphaned, it felt as though a pressure had been put on me to at least look for a wife. But marrying without love was something I couldn't bare.
