RP: A Nott Family Brunch Who: The Nott family What: Jules has big news to share. When: 21 November 2027 Where: The Nott family home Warnings: Emotions, tbd Completion Status: In progress
Malta had been amazing, of course. Jules had greatly enjoyed reconnecting with Holly in a way her best friend's crazy work schedule and her own emotional hang-ups hadn't allowed them recently. But she'd also spent that time reconnecting with herself, with why she'd wanted to find her birth mother in the first place. And so, after returning home, she'd taken the very scary step to reach out to the woman and find out if she would want to meet her too.
With the meeting scheduled for Wednesday, Jules knew it was time to fill her family in on what was going on with her. She'd reached out to everyone, asking her siblings to make sure they would all make it to Sunday brunch this week, specifying no plus ones, please. She might have felt bad about Thad's birthday being yesterday, but Thad knew how important this was to her. And she was still hoping he might come around and want to meet their biological mother, too.
Jules waited until everyone was seated with their plates full to bring it up, though she'd enjoyed hearing updates from her parents and siblings. "So, Mr. Montgomery was able to find Thad's and my birth mother," she said at first. "I've reached out, and I'll be meeting her on Wednesday." Her stomach was in knots as she waited to see how they would respond, and without her permission, her eyes found her mum's eyes. It seemed everyone was waiting for the matriarch to react.
Pansy's hazel eyes filled with mositure, but she refused to let the tears fall. She would save them for later, when it was just her and Theo. Her lips turned up slightly at the corners as she focused on Juliet. "That's wonderful, love. I can't wait to hear all about how it goes," she told her older daughter genuinely.
