HI AGAIN

Dear Miss Sleptova,

I hope you don’t mind me writing but I wanted to see what the owlery was like and it seemed rather silly to go all the way up there without having a letter to send!

How are you doing? Now that your home is rebuilt I expect you are more comfortable than you were round Grandad’s, though you must be missing school by now! I got sorted yesterday into Slytherin which all my roommates keep saying is the best house, though I was a bit surprised!

Love,
Sunny

Dear Miss Darrow,

None of the owls tried to hurt you, I hope? Some of the owlery’s owls can be horribly aggressive like that. I had a bruise on my left arm for two weeks because I merely wanted to send a letter to my aunt once!

Slytherin is the best house but I suppose I am biased because I was one myself. But you will love it, I assure you. We might have a bad reputation, but we’re really great towards each other. There are some less than pleasant Slytherins, but we are generally very loyal and supportive to each other!

I’m doing well, thank you! You’re such a darling for asking me that!

I hope you enjoyed your first classes. I know Father’s can be rather unorthodox at times, but I’m sure you’ll do great. I’ve enclosed a magazine for you, like the one we checked out in the summer!

Yours,

Eva Sleptova
