Dear Molly,
Sorry I've been so distant lately. After we went to Bath, I got a little depressed and didn't really respond to anyone. I felt trapped and was overwhelmed with the gravity of my situation and with a sense of hopelessness.
Narcissa came over for a visit and we ended up working out a lot of things. While I doubt she and i will ever get back the closeness of sisterhood we once had, it's at least a start. We had lunch together the other day and did some shopping. Teddy came with us and she has fallen victim to my grandson's charms. When he's a teenager, he's going to be trouble. I don't think I need that again. Perhaps, once he turns thirteen, I'll send him to live with Harry. That's a joke, Mol.
I have some news. I went to the solicitor before meeting with Narcissa and found out something that was rather surprising. Ted bought a house in Eastcombe, Gloucester, and was going to surprise me with it for my fiftieth birthday. Molly, it's adorable and I've enclosed a picture.
I've had an offer for the house here and I think I'm going to take it. I can't live here anymore. I'm looking forward to the fresh start and there's even a magical section of Eastcombe. And besides, Gloucestershire is closer to you!
How's the cafe coming along? I am so excited for you. When are you opening up? Perhaps once I get settled I can help you out. I am thinking of getting a job in the evenings or something. I've also been thinking of advertising for a nanny by sending Minerva an advert to post for those in Harry's year. What do you think?
We must get together soon and chat. Perhaps with some sherry? You are such a fun drunk!
Have a wonderful day, Molly, and again i want to apologize for being so distant. I'm going to fix that.
Love,
Andie
Dear Harry,
How are things with you? Are the tutoring sessions going well?
Teddy is starting to crawl and I can't keep anything on the floor anymore. it's ridiculous, really. He's changed so much since you've seen him. Here's the latest pictures of him....
He misses his Uncle Harry. You should stop by some time.
I also wanted to let you know that I will be moving to Gloucestershire sometime in the next few weeks. Ted bought some property there a while back and I am very excited about it, actually. There are too many memories here and I can't handle being so far away from my friends and family. I should also tell you that Narcissa and I have mended things a bit and she has met Teddy. I'm not going to let her babysit or anything, but I feel that he deserves to know her. She's changed a lot, Harry. Please let me know if you have any concerns about this development.
Well, I had better sign off. Good luck on your exams and come over for dinner some time with Ron. I'd love to have some company.
