Giving his mother a irritated peck on the cheek, he whispers something in her ear, that has her snapping her calculating eyes back to me. Years ago, that would have had me flinching, but after spending so much time with her via her unannounced visits to our flat, that woman no longer fazes me at all. And honestly our insulting banter has become something I usually look forward to. I try to view it as progress. Harry thinks I’m mad, but he’s biased since Mummy Malfoy fucking adores him. She actually fucking dotes on the boy who lived. He got her out of a heavy prison sentence, well that and the whole Lucius turning double agent and Malfoy killing Bellatrix. All those facts for sure helped with her getting such a light probation sentence. But it still slightly annoys me.
