"Cousin." She said sharply, demanding the girls attention before asking the question that she needed an answer to.
"Are you trying to humiliate the rest of the family?" Because Ravenclaw was fine, Gryffindor was fine, and Slytherin was best, but
Hufflepuff? Completely unacceptable, and they all knew that.
Awarlesta was spooked when she heard
"Cousin." sharp in her ear. She looked up to see her cousin, Presley, looking at her with the same look she imagined her grandmother would have.
"Oh...hi, Presley..." She struggled for the words to say. What do you say to that?! Usually, it was Manolo who would strike back at the family reunions.
"Well then, I guess I'll be going down in Black family history." She said with a smirk and turned back towards the table. Before it dawned on her.
Oh, Merlin! I just talked back to Presley...I'm doomed.
