IO to Padma ONLY

[mc_mike]

I don't mean to bother you while you're at work, but I've something important we need to talk about, so when you've a chance, let me know, yeah? Before you go off worrying, no one's hurt or whatever other disasters you've running through your head. It's brilliant, actually. I hope you'll think so as well.

I'm- considering leaving. Good Merlin, I don't know where to go for a new job. I don't suppose- I mean to say- perhaps this weekend, I can look into the possibility of moving with you? Is that too- extreme?

You'd leave Parvati like that? S'pose I always figured you for not wanting to be far from your sister.

I don't want to be far from her, I- Merlin. I reckon I was just being rash. We're not married yet and I'll get in touch with the Indian Ministry, then. Perhaps they can help.

I didn't mean I didn't want you to look into anything there.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_patil_padma/]

No- that will complicate matters, I suppose. I mean, if I don't get a job there, what will you do with housing for two?

Won't hurt anyone to look into things, though.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_patil_padma/]

I suppose not.

...Mike? How long do you reckon we should postpone the wedding?

[http://users.livejournal.com/mike_corner_/]

I don't know, Padma.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_patil_padma/]

...all right. I reckon I can talk the matter over with your parents; we'll figure something out.

Have I mentioned lately how proud I am of you?

[http://users.livejournal.com/mike_corner_/]

My mum'd like that.

May've mentioned it once before. Wish I felt half as proud as you say you are.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_patil_padma/]

Why shouldn't you feel proud? Regardless of what you ultimately decide to do, your acceptance alone speaks volumes. It means that masters in the field of charms recognise your talent and potential. Why, I'm almost jealous, Mike.

It's a mite difficult to feel proud when the only ruddy thing you can think of is what you'd be leaving behind.

Mikey... come to bed with me. You don't have to feel homesick tonight; we have a plan. Everything will work out for the best, I promise.
