You are sitting in the grounds with Gabrielle doing your homework when an owl drops a black envelope beside you
You: After all this time
Gabrielle: What's that?
You: A letter- from my mother
Gabrielle: You never talk about her
You: Yeah well I try to avoid that subject
Gabrielle: Well what's she like?
You: Oh you know, just your normal typical death eater
Gabrielle: Your mum is a death eater?
You: And my dad is Voldemort
Gabrielle: That's how you got the last name Riddle? I thought that was just a coincidence
You: Well now you know the truth
Gabrielle: I don't know what to say
You: It's fine, you don't need to say anything
Gabrielle: Are you going to reply to her?
You: She left me. She sent me to another country and never wrote. Do you know how that feels?
Gabrielle: I-
You: She moved me away from all my friends, left me alone and lost. Now that I'm back, she suddenly wants to talk to me as if nothing happened
Gabrielle: Y/N-
You: I don't want to talk to her. Not now, not ever
Tears start to pour down your face
Gabrielle: You don't have to, it's up to you
You: I'm sorry I took this all out on you
Gabrielle: It's ok, I understand
You: It's just- She's meant to be my mum, she's meant to look after me and not send me away and isolate me from everything that I ever knew
She puts her arm around you and you put your head on her shoulder. You stare into space for a few moments, tears flowing down your face. You pull away, take a deep breath, wipe your eyes with your sleeve and smile softly.
You: Thanks
Gabrielle: Of course. That's what friends are for, right?
