It's kind of unsettling how happiness and joy can abruptly turn into feelings of misery and despair at any time. It's incredible how one person can completely transform your life, and how, when they go, they can completely reverse that transformatio...
Another month passes by, as it was finally December. Not much has happened in these holidays. I've been at home all this time, while my parents were still working for the Ministry. Adrian and I saw each other last week again, as we decided to go to the park near his house. I have really enjoyed his presence so far. He has been really nice and caring to me all this time, yet I never knew if it meant anything.
I was writing back to some letters from my friends, when my mother came in my room. "Darling, we're going to the Malfoy's tonight, they're having a Christmas party" She says.
I groan, "Mother, can I not go?" I say.
"Mila, I thought you liked being with Draco" she says.
"What?" I cry out, "I have never liked being around Malfoy!" I yell.
She widens her eyes, "Oh, sorry.. but you have to come.."
I whine, "But mother.."
"Mila, you have no choice" She says as she exits my room and closes the door.
I sigh as I stand out of my seat and walk towards my closet. I went through all my clothes, as I tried to find something to wear for tonight.

Later that night, I began to get ready for the Christmas party. I decided to wear a white wrap dress, with some nude heels.

I quickly placed my jewellery on, before I walked out of my room. I saw some house elf's carrying come laundry as I walked passed them. "Good evening Miss Blackwood, you look very nice" One house elf says to me.
I smile, "Thank you" I mumble as I continue to walk down the hallway. I walked down the stairs, when I saw my mother looking into the mirror. She was wearing a red silk dress, which reached down to her knees. My father walked up to her, as he was in his usual suit. They both turn their heads to look at me, "Oh you look beautiful darling!" My mother says. My father dosent say anything to me, instead, he just stares at me.
I continue to walk down the stairs, "Are you ready?" My father asks. I nod before they turn around and walk out of the house. I follow them, as I close the door after me.

My father rings the doorbell of Malfoy Manor, as we stand out on the front porch. Get me out of here, get me out of here, I thought. The door opens up after a few seconds, when Lucius stands in the doorway. "Lucius!" My father says.
My father gives Lucius a small handshake, as they mumble some things to each other. My father and Lucius were apparently trouble makers in Hogwarts, as my mother and Narcissa were best friends.
My father enters through the door, as my mother follows him. God help me, I thought.
As I enter, I realised Narcissa and my mother were hugging, till Narcissa met eyes with me. She smiles, "Everytime you come here, it seems like you get even more beautiful" She says as she walks towards me. I smile as she hugs me, "How are you darling?" She asks.
