Fifth drabble for the Defining Moments challenge on xoxLewrahxox's forum: Andromeda.
Defining Moments
Everyone remembers a moment they consider very special, something that changed their life irrecovably. What was the defining moment for Bella? Narcissa? Lucius? Rodolphus? What is a "defining moment" exactly? Feel free to being your own interpretation to this. Just make sure it's only 100 words. ;) Whatever you do, have fun!
She was the middle girl; nice, bashful. She stayed low and did what she was told. She was only noticed for her resemblance with her older sister. At other times, people left her alone, gravitating around wild little Bellatrix, adored or endlessly scolded but always the centre of attention, or perfect little Narcissa, the ladylike angel.
People noticed, and talked about her in low voices, when she ended up in Hufflepuff; they warned her parents.
It didn't last.
Now, as Andromeda softly closed the door after her, she knew that people would talk. She didn't care.
She was becoming someone.
