Would it be easier to meet somewhere else? I am sure I could get Harry to stay with Dad for a few hours. Truthfully, the house is empty. Percy and Charlie went back to work already. Bill is with his wife, and George is back at the shop. Dad just sleeps all the time. So most of my day is spent staring awkwardly at Harry, or sitting in a dark room worrying about my dad.
I can understand your reasons for not coming. But please understand, I had to endure my brother Percy inform me what a rotten boyfriend you are because you were not there. I can only imagine the vile things that Ron will say when he makes it back. Sometimes, I hate that I am the very fragile glue holding my family together.
But, I am blathering on, I am sorry. I just need someone not here to tell all this stuff to. Someone I don't have to watch fall apart in front of me.
