Son...don't be too hard on your mum. This past night was very hard on her nerves. We didn't know whether the twins or Ron were all right, and then Ron disappeared. And then when we found them you disappeared. I think it was just one anxious shock too many.
What you maybe don't entirely understand is that to her you will always be a child. Even if you're a hundred years old and the Minister of Magic. She's a mum, she's just made that way.
I know you're responsible, son. And that's part of the reason we were concerned. Because ordinarily you're conscientious enough to let us know where you are and how long you might be. When we didn't hear from you, surely you can understand why your mother feared the worst.
There was awhile there last night when we didn't know if he would. He got hit in the neck with a splinter of flying debris and bled something awful. I don't know if there were any other injuries.
She doesn't need to fly off the handle like that at me.
It's uncalled for, and it's absolutely mortifying. I just live in fear of the thought that she might say something humiliating like that in front of my boss. At least he treats me like an adult.
