«I can't wait to write in this book, so you're getting this message now. I'm on the plane and we're about to take off.

I miss you already.

I love you»

«Be glad you're not in England anymore.

I'm pretty sure the entire country heard my father's tantrum when I walked into the Manor.

Half an hour.

He spent the best part of half an hour shouting at me and accusing me of what had possessed me to break off my engagement with Astoria.

What a disgrace it had brought upon our and the Greengrass family.

How lucky I was that they wanted to marry me to such a pretty girl and not to some ugly old widow.

My mother, as always, just stood by, she never does anything and certainly nothing to contradict my father.

I hate them, I hate them both.

But the crowning glory was when my father tried to raise his hand against me. And that's when I left.

I now live above the Leaky Cauldron and live off what money I have left.

Tom the bartender has offered me to help him up and he could let me stay here for free and although I hate the thought I will have to take him up on the offer.

But just thinking about how embarrassed my father would be if he knew a Malfoy was working as a bartender puts me in a better mood.

I'll still try to find another job.

I'll write to you as often as I can.

I love you

«From the Daily Prophet?!

I have to find out that you testified against your father from the fucking Daily Prophet?!

Are you out of your fucking mind, doing this without talking to her or me?!

You could have ended up in Azkaban!

Have you thought for one minute what could have happened?!

What would have happened to me?!

Of course not, you're a selfish asshole after all!

You can shove your apology, I don't want it!»


Draco 12 November

«I wasn't going to apologise either.

And yes, of course I thought about what might happen. Why do you think I didn't do it much sooner?

But that was my decision alone, just as it was yours to accept your certificate with your real name.

My life my decision, simple as that!

Take it or leave it, it's up to you.»

«You are unbelievable!

Unbelievably ignorant!

I would have wanted, I would have been there, testify for you, bribe the judge, I don't know anything!

You can't just expect me to stand by and do nothing. I would have supported you on the spot.

And I swear I would have dragged you out of Azkaban myself, because don't think I would have left you there.

I take back the selfish asshole, but you're still a huge idiot.»


Draco 26 November

«Sorry I haven't written in the last week.

Mother was admitted to Mungos because she hasn't been able to cope since father went to Azkaban. Due to her condition, she can no longer be expected to live without care.

I had a lot of appointments because some things had to be sorted out.

I am now the sole administrator of the Malfoy estate with everything that goes with it.

That means the Manor is mine now. I don't know what I want to do with it yet, but demolishing it sounds best so far.

I still have a lot to sort out here, so I probably won't manage to write that often.

I love and miss you»

«Please don't tear down the Manor. From what you have told me it is a really nice house.

I know what I'm going to do now and you're the first person I've told.

In this village there is an orphanage that is looking for helpers. I don't have an exact task there, but I help where I can. I want to teach the children to read and write and I want to make music with them. I think working with children could be the right thing for me.

And it was important for me to be there for Grandpa. I've been away for too long and I want to support him more.

I wish I could have told you all this in person, I'll see if I can get back to England before I go. I miss you and would love to have you here.

PS. I'll send your Christmas present next week so it arrives on time.»
