Sister, Are Apologies Sweet?

[Darling Whitledge (Hymn)]

25 June 1887

Dear Sweetie,

Our cousins are doing well, though I confess I spend most of my time with Gleam. Though I have played a few games of practice Quidditch with Glisten when Glimmer had declined to play.

Glisten is very serious about Quidditch! I wonder if he'll become a professional once he graduates? Although he's very clever, he doesn't seem to have a specific aspiration.

Glow isn't particularly stiff. He's very quiet though, and he reads a great deal. I suppose that's good, but he doesn't seem particularly interested in interacting with others, especially Glisten. Their relationship seems… quite strained, to be honest.

I think if you should start talking to Honey, it would open a doorway to conversation. I don't think Honey would be adverse to making up with you. You just need to be honest with her. She will listen.

I'm sorry that he responded in such a way. I could speak with him about it, if you would like. I don't think it unfair for you to desire similar treatment from him as he gives me. We are, after all, only a year apart and I don't think it's childish for you to want to have the same affection and attention he gives to the rest of us.

I'm sure that should you like to stay for awhile, our aunt and uncle would be happy to accommodate you. Let me know if you'd like me to speak with them.

Love,
Darling
