RP - I don't know that there are haunted houses Date: December 21st, 2000 Characters: Annaliese and Alette Location: Hogsmeade, DeBura home Public/Private: Private Warning: Family Drama Summary: Alette has received a reply from her father regarding the letter she sent to him. It’s not good news and Alette wants some explanation. Status: incomplete
The hand that held the letter began to tremble as she read over the words again and again and again. They just didn’t make sense! He wrote that he and her aunt had wounded her mother. What did that even mean?! She couldn’t even wrap her mind around what they could have done that would cause a divorce. She didn’t want to think about it really. She gripped the paper tightly; forgiveness was really something she couldn’t contemplate at the moment. There was so much running through her mind.
Her grandfather had discovered this secret. Her mother had known about this a month ago? If she hadn’t written to her father would she have ever found out before it actually happened? It all made sense now though in regards to her mother’s behavior and the sudden move and the fact that she had been pushing aside the topic of going home for Christmas.
Getting up, she quickly left her room and went down the steps to find her mother. “MOTHER!” she cried out, unsure of where she would be but she wanted to talk to her, she didn’t care what time it was or how loud she was being. When she got no immediate reply she stalked through the house then went up to her mother’s room. She didn’t knock and simply opened the door and barged in. “Mother, I-I…” She let out a breath as she looked down at the paper, “I just got this letter back from father and…I just don’t know what to make of it. Not at all. What is going on? What did grandpa discover and why is it leading to divorce. I just….I-I-I can’t believe it is what he is suggesting. I can’t.”
