Torie was nearly giddy as her sister read the card, barely containing her own excitement. "Oh! How sweet!" Torie looked over Estelle's shoulder at the card itself then back toward the flowers. "This bouquet is exquisite, you haven't any idea who they might be from?" Certainly her sister (through little fault of her own!) didn't have that many callers that would send flowers. Torie had always thought her sisters to require a particular... beau to woo them, but clearly Estelle had caught someone's eye!
"Come now, you've been holding out!" The Malfoy sisters were not all that close, in age sure, but little else, but Torie would have hoped that any news of something serious would have been passed along to her. "How very exciting and romantic! I'm so very happy for you!" If only because she knew her sisters had the pressure of having siblings out now too and none of them wanted to be overly competitive or a burden to their parents for an extended amount of time.
