Miss Forwar,

I must admit I did the same. Never have I talked (or in this case, written) to someone without knowing their face. I was in the middle of a conversation about the upcoming Quidditch World Cup with one of my friends when I was suddenly distracted by the realization that you were likely sitting somewhere nearby. I think I may have agreed to attend the first game with them, but I won't know for sure until they bring it up.

The women in my family are considered unconventional, even by my uncles and aunts and grandparents. Most of my aunts are socialites or housewives, and my mother might of been too if my father had objected to her ambitions. What would you like to do with your life?

Sincerely,
Nelson Bide

P.S. I was not in trouble. I nearly dozed off twice, but I was smart enough to sit behind a student a few inches taller than myself.
