Narcissa was already having a wonderful day. Beyond wonderful really, in fact, she was quite ready to burst from excitement, which was terribly unusual for Narcissa but things were just that good. Narcissa had just received the best news she had gotten in a very long time. After she missed her monthly cycle, Narcissa decided to go to Saint Mungo's. She didn't full believe she was pregnant but she had hoped so and as it would turn out, she was. Narcissa could scarcely believe it, she had wanted this for so long and now it was happening, it was really happening!
She had seriously considered showing up at Lucius' work to tell him the news, but that just seemed too improper. It would have to wait until he was home later. However, as she sat at the cafe waiting for Zaida to arrive, she knew she wouldn't be able to keep the news from her friend. Narcissa thought it strange herself that she should tell Zaida before Lucius, but well, Lucius was at work and she'd already made this engagement with Zaida. Narcissa simply could not fathom how she'd be able to talk with Zaida the entire time and not tell her when the fact that she was going to have a baby was all she was thinking about right now.
Narcissa smiled warmly at Zaida, and not that she was every cruel to Zaida, but it was noticeably a warmer smile than she typically gave anyone. "Quite alright, and I completely understand," Narcissa said with a little roll of her eyes. "Those creatures are very useful, I will admit, but they can be so very slow," she said and then smiled again. "Well, I have some good news," she said.
