Chapter 4- New friends, New Job.. New Enemies
It was around midnight before Roseanna had returned to her room, despite the unpleasant meeting she had with Malfoy (readers- she doesn't know the name as yet) it had turned out to be an excellent day, venturing in all the shops and trying different garments on (which there were many!). She had finally bought a stunning black dress, which emphasized her graceful figure and without delay changed into it. She decided to explore the bars and nightclubs that Hogsmeade had to offer, the youthful girl spent the whole night dancing and chatting to some newly – made friends one of them was an old classmate one of which was extremely intelligent, witty and beautiful, it was none other than Hermione Granger. They promised to meet each other the day after, to catch up on old times and keep up to date on the juicy gossip. Roseanna bounded on to her bed and cheerfully sighed, 'I'll be happy here, I'm making friends already and hopefully soon I will find a good job!" she thought positively before falling into a deep slumber.
The next morning, Roseanna was awoken by a scratching noise "Grrr!" she protested out loud 'Can I not have 1 decent night sleep here?" She looked over to the window and came across a beautiful and statuesque black owl, unlatching the shutter the owl stepped in. Rose stroked the owl's feathers lovingly, while it nipped her appreciatively. 'What do we have here my fine beauty?", The girl obtained the letter from the owls beak, she opened it excitedly as it was posted by the Magical Earnings and Workings office from the Ministry of Magic. She rapidly commenced reading the contents of the letter
Dear Miss Graywood,
First and foremost, we the Ministry welcome you to Hogsmeade and hope that you have a pleasant stay. Secondly, on behalf of the Ministry of Magic congratulations is at hand because have found a most suitable and challenging employment for you! You are to be working as a personal assistant (PA) to none other than the Honourable and brilliant Lucius Malfoy. He personally recommended you as a result of your high accomplishment in your former studies and somewhat unique experience and talent. He wishes to consult with you this evening at 7.00pm at the Malfoy Manor.
Again congratulations and best of luck. Yours faithfully
Violet Nimbet
Head Secretary
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH!!! Roseanna dropped the letter and jumped numerously up and down on the creaky bed, she was making such a racket that Tom had to come up and order her to keep the noise down.
'I'm sorry Tom' said Rose apologetically 'its just --- well look --- see for yourself' she claimed gleefully, she had practically thrown the letters within the landlords face!
Tom stared down in horror ' Oh no!' he thought ' Lucius Malfoy, peh! Honest and brilliant my eye!' His expression was stony and ashen, the chilling thought of that delicate, beautiful girl falling within the clutches of that demon, that monster.
'What's wrong?' asked Roseanna naively, interrupting the thoughts of the troubled landlord.
'Oh – er nothing lass! Just be careful! Because there are wizards that rip and break yer bones, until yer nought but a quiverin shell!"
'Yeah ok' the girl shrugged away, Toms warning' I CAN look after myself you know! She added firmly 'Anyway, I'm very sorry about the commotion, but I will have to go now and meet a friend, Good day Tom!"
Meanwhile... back in Malfoy Manor
Lucius was waiting for his owl 'noir' to return, the handsome bird finally came back after a two-hour trip looking completely exhausted. 'Did she get the letter my pet?' he stroked his black feathers soothingly 'Hoot', the owl nipped Lucius' finger favourably, the owl looked at him expectantly for a treat. Malfoy chuckled and sighed, 'Here you are noir' he hurled a dead mouse to the purebred animal
The girl was clay for him to mould to his devices (or so he thought), he would make her pay for addressing him so discourteously, and he would humiliate, use and mentally taunt her until she had admitted defeat.
