The Letters – Part One

“Dear Severus,



As promised, my first letter. I haven’t even started unpacking.



My room is small and basic and looks out over a small Paris back street that I don’t know the name of yet. It’s in an old and dusty building, and from my window I can see a coffee shop and an Ice Cream and crepes parlour.



My landlady is called Marie and doesn’t speak English. She looks almost Spanish, and she has a moustache.



I have my first class in the morning.



It’s Potions.



Love Hermione”

“Dear Ginny,



I think I have made the biggest mistake of my life.



My room is dark and cramped, there are pigeons on the roof of the building opposite and they make such a noise I can’t concentrate properly. I had my first Potions class, and the teacher is hopeless. I had to intervene at one point, to stop her from blowing everyone up!



My landlady, Marie, is nice but very nosey, and keeps asking me personal questions. I just smile and tell her I can’t understand her. Today she asked me about my boyfriend.



I miss him, Ginny. Have you seen him? How is he?



Love Hermione”




********



“Dear Hermione,



Just give up the course and come home. We all miss you.



Harry invited Severus for lunch, but he turned down the invitation. He has agreed to come and visit Albus next week, so I will let you know how he is.



I’m sure he feels the same way about you. You should have told him.



Write soon,



Love Ginny”

“Dear Severus,



I have been here almost four weeks and you haven’t replied to any of my letters.



Please don’t be angry with me.



Have you visited Albus at all? I bet he is getting big now.



Please write. I miss you.



Love Hermione”






*********



“Dear Hermione,



I apologise for not replying to your letters. I wasn’t under the impression you expected me to write.



I have been particularly busy fulfilling recent orders, but your filing system is still working perfectly and I can assure you I am up to date with the invoices.



I have visited Albus just this week, after incessant invitations from Harry. And yes, the child is growing, as he should.



I hope your course is everything you hoped it would be.



Regards,



Severus"
