Emma grimaced down at the table. Well, she was quite proud of herself that she didn't shriek in indignation as her mother would have done at such a classy action. "Remind me to never give you packets of raw sugar. Ever."
Sniffing, she took another bite from her cake and swallowed before replying. "Mother doesn't like sweet things in the house. My father and I enjoy sweet things sometimes but she doesn't let us have any. I suppose that's why Hogwarts is such a relief to come to." She bit her lip at the reminder of her father, silently cursing herself for bringing him up again. Stuffing the last piece into her mouth, she raised her mug also and clinked it with his. "Cheers!"
