House HuntingĀ š”
Delphine had no idea how much money she truly made as a therapist - not when most of her cheque went to paying bills her father didn't, or buying alcohol for him. Even still, it never really sunk in until her and Kingsley were looking at houses together, and seeing what they could afford. This next house had the colour drain from her face. One look at it, and she almost pulled away before even entering. There was no way they could afford a place as nice as this. It was practically a mansion to her, after all. And if the outside didn't do it enough justice, it was even bigger inside. She could barely hear what the real estate agent was going on about, because she was trying to get over the high ceilings and beautiful archway that lead out of the living room.
Her eyes gawked at just about everything she saw, and the sheer size of the place was enough to stun her into silence. She made comments on the dishwasher, fridge, stove and separated oven - marveled at them, really, with a huge grin on her face like she was a first year Hogwarts student seeing Hogsmeade for the first time. And then they got to the master bedroom and bathroom. She knew Kingsley had seen where she previously lived, in order to arrest her father once upon a time, so he'd of known how small it was. What would she do with all this space just in the bedroom? The agent left them to give them time to think, and that's when Delphine turned to Kingsley, bewildered.
"I-I could have a bath. Like.. a real bath. With jets. And the shower is- it's huge. Like.. comfortably showering with you huge and then some. And the space! I could fit an entire apartment in this bedroom alone!" She laughed as she spun to look at everything around her again. She put her hands over her head to stretch, looking at the ceiling. "It's so high.." Her nose scrunched as she looked back to Kingsley, deciding to throw herself at him and wrap her arms around his neck, kissing him.
"I could have a dog! You saw the yard, right? I could have three dogs if I wanted. An actual pet! There's so much light coming into the place, it's practically a palace! Can we get a dog? No, but really. Can we? A dog and then a dog friend for the first dog?"
