He did not understand at all did he? That was sad that he didn't get it so she put her hand up to silence him, "I loved your place. It is much better than my house. You wanna know why? Because you see your house was a home, my house is just that a house. I grew up in a huge house with all of the amenities but my parents were never around. You had your parents around and your sister. You have no idea how lucky you were growing up."

Then she crossed her arms uncomfortably and laughed a little. That was deeply personal and she did not want to even talk about it, "Anyway yeah Violet's house is huge." When he asked what her house was like she shifted uncontrollably where she now stood. Should she be the one to tell him? No it was not time. Then again he did asked and he loved Violet regardless of where she lived, "Well you see Violet lives in a special house. Back about forty years ago in 2035 France was having a little, um, money issue. So they put Versailles on the market place. And her, um, grandparents bought it. So Violet lives there..."
Christopher shook his head. "My house has never been a home to me. Hogwarts is my only home. Too much blood and tears were shed and too many hurtful events took place there. It's really just the memories of my dad that made even want to return for a second. They were comforting. I preferred the back yard much better. The water, the only physical thing there I ever liked. My mum hated us even before Hogwarts. We were always too weird for her. She made sure that house wasn't an attachment. Leaving there was really no problem in the slightest."

The fourteen year old's jaw dropped. "You're.... You're serious?" But he needn't have asked it. The stern yet awkward facial expression on his sister's face told him she wasn't. "Violet owns the entire city of Versailles?" That couldn't be possible. No, it was an entire city! France had indeed put it up on the market, but there was no way someone could buy it just for one small family to live there.
