family values
So! Things have changed alot over the past week and mostly for good. The feeling of being free, or more free than before is incredible, I ADORE my brother! Well, perhaps adore is too strong a word, I'm glad that he's back - properly back, a Zabini again. This sudden wave of filial adoration isn't because he's saved me from being the sole hope of the Zabini family's continuation, despite what people might think, he's my big brother and somewhere deep down I feel affection for him.
So I'm off the marital hook for a while, Mother can concentrate her efforts of finding Richard a suitable wife etc etc and leave me alone for a bit. Although seeing as I will be 19 this summer and obviously advancing in years, I doubt my reprieve will last very long. She might have Richard to occupy her attention but knowing my mother I don't think I'll escape her clutches for very long.
No Howlers from home, but then again Howlers aren't really my Mother's style, plus she might not be aware of recent events. It won't be long til someone tells her or she finds out, and I'm actually interested in what her reaction would be - I honestly don't know how she'll react. Can't be worse than anything I've had before, although I'm sure I'll get the usual "Why did you do this to Malcolm" Spiel with a side order of "He's such a nice boy, he adores you, he'll make a fantastic husband, his family have very extensive grounds" and so on... If she likes him THAT much she should leave Father and run off with Mal herself! Or adopt him, which would be the less disgusting version.
I don't care what anyone has to say about my choice of boyfriend - so don't bother looking down your noses at me at breakfast, making snide remarks in the hallways and whispering as I go past. I can sneer and act snooty better than the rest of you, and I'm pretty good at hexes too, so just back off!
So things are going pretty well for once in my life.
Blaise Zabini is Happy!
