    Trina,
    Evidently you are much too busy to write to your poor sister, but thankfully mother has kept me very much abreast of recent developments. Have you become enchanted with a boy, Trina? He must be something indeed to attract your interest, for I can count on a single hand the number of people who have risen up to your exacting standards.

    I am exceedingly intrigued, but as your sister it would be remiss of me not to remind you that you are still quite young and you have your entire life to meet men that you can actually marry. That, and there is the small matter of your chastity cuff - I'm sure I do not need to tell you to be sensible.

    Your sister,
    Carrie

    Carrie,

    Oh, sister. We, Mr. Zalek Dronul and myself, have had so many conversations since I wrote mother (who, by the way, wasn't much help). It's almost scary how much he seems to know about how I feel before I do. Do I just not pay attention to emotions I don't recognize while he just.. knows what he's feeling? Is there a way to ignore it so I can focus on my upcoming OWLs?

    Nothing will happen between the two of us, I hope, but with the rising emotions... I can't say for certain. Would it be wrong to give into passion?

    I'm sorry I haven't written you much in the past month. I miss you, sister, and I can't wait for this year to be over so we can spend more time together. I'm almost an adult, you know, so we can do even more than before. I can't believe I'm going to be six-teen tomorrow! Can we start apparition lessons over the summer? I don't want to wait until seventh year to learn the skill!

    Love,
    Trina

    Trina,
    Yes. I had always thought you much too clever to ask anything quite so silly, but I cannot think of anything as wrong as giving into your so called feelings for a schoolboy. Unless, of course, you are jesting, and even then I don't think it is very funny.

    Our family has known scandal enough without you joining the ranks of the Hogwarts Hussies, though if you mean to ruin yourself then I would prefer that you waited until I was married. Honestly Trina, have you lost your senses completely?

    And as for apparition lessons, you would do better with a professional instructor, unless you were looking to splinch your head from your neck.

    Possibly, sister, I may have lost all sense of what I should or shouldn't do... at least when it comes to him. Oh, Carrie, I don't think I'd snoop that low as to sleep around with anyone. Honestly! Even if something did happen... and I'm sure it won't... it wouldn't be that bad.

    Enough about me. When do you plan on getting married? Are you seeing someone you plan on marrying? Should I be expecting a wedding invitation before June?

    Love,
    Trina

    Katrina,
    I find it hard to believe that you do not grasp the gravity of what you are proposing, but I will endeavor to spell it out. If you give in, as you so eloquently put it, you will set off your chastity belt and you will be ejected from Hogwarts in shame. No respectable man will ever marry you and your grandmother will, in all probability, kill you, and Papa certainly will not protect you. You will be ruined, and I promise you that Mr. Dronul is not worth that.

    Oh Trina, you are smarter than this. I had expected a crush eventually but not this insanity. There will be plenty of time for love when you are out.

    Don't worry about it. Your always worrying. I'm not going to get kicked out of Hogwarts. If I leave, it will be my choice and not because of a Chastity Cuff going off because of a poor choice. I plan on completing Hogwarts, not getting kicked out.
