Viola picked up the quill, ready to respond to Sonali’s latest reply, before putting it down again. It was obvious that she would do little to change Sonali’s mind. Or to even get her to apologize for her comments.
Some pureblood prince to sweep you off your feet
What did Sonali know, Viola wanted to snap. Closing her eyes, Viola could recreate her mother’s letter, precise letter by each precise letter, the names burned onto her brain. There were no princes waiting for her, pureblood or no. They were only men, boys really. Did Viola want to be swept off her feet? Didn’t every girl?
It's cool you believe that, and all. But I'm a MODERN WOMAN.
There was something in Sonali’s condensation that still made her bristle. Why did the opinion that one should wait until marriage for sexual intercourse, or at least until you were in a committed relationship, be worth any less than wanting to have it as soon as possible? Didn’t Sonali know that a woman’s reputation was the most valuable thing she had? That once it was sullied that it was very hard, if not downright impossible, to clean?
There was a pounding already forming at the base of Viola’s skull, a sure sign that she was thinking too hard on the whole subject. Really, she should have been the bigger person, leaving the whole issue after asking Sonali to not mock her beliefs. At least it was behind wards.
Viola closed her journal, picking up her charms textbook. There were OWLs to study for.
