We've been nervous about it for a while, though. I mean, the Ministry can look at anyone's Private Messages, anytime it likes. It's just political fear that keeps them out of yours. And you know they've always looked more at the messages to you than the ones you write, or the ones you write back and forth to me and Draco and your other friends.
I've been going to Grimmauld nearly every day and I talked about what happened with Mr Lupin. He said that even if they had a hundred people reading private messages, all the time, they couldn't check everything. The most likely thing was that Ron's just got sampled randomly, and they happened to find something. I mean, we know they can do that. That's why the twins made the lock in the first place.
I think we're still safe, those messages, I mean, for now.
Anyway, I'm all right. I'm just glad no one thinks of looking for me when you're not at Buckingham. And that Ellie always offers me supper because I figure the less people see me the less they will think to look, if that makes sense.
