— Annie-Belle —
    While the words may parallel, Annie-Belle, it is the intentions that matter. I say that because I really want the best for you - and I don't think Reuben Crouch is that, not with his reputation. And because in a society like this, who you are with determines the opportunities available to you. And I don't wish for you to be held back. I know you can become so much.
    I say it only because I worry and care about you, okay?
    I spoke with father. I've tried to calm him down, but father can be unpredictable so I can't promise it worked, but I did try.
