05. BIOGRAPHY
Born upon a cold december morning, Andromeda came to the world as a second daughter to Cygnus and Druella Black.A perfect child for House Black, or at least she would have been, had her birth not signified yet another disappointment due to her gender. Cygnus, however, was quickly won over by his daughter’s toothless smile and bright eyes; and Druella too, well, at least at first. No matter, her bond with her father stayed, and it translated perfectly into the child Andromeda grew up to be. Spoiled as any daughter of House Black and tremendously entitled due to years of her father’s coddling; proper and educated as any girl of her lineage should be, though never as poised as her mother would have preferred.
Growing up surrounded by who she did, it was no wonder what kind of ideals young Andromeda held. She was taught she was better, more deserving, purer than others. It was with this mindset that she arrived at Hogwarts. Eleven years old and with the proudest smile on her face she was sorted into slytherin. Not long passed, though, before Andromeda started to see how things really were. Children from other houses didn’t really want to be with her, and it was almost as if the older students prevented the few stray first years that got near to her from being her friends. And for a while, she tried her best at doing as she was told.
She stuck to her sister and her housemates. All while silently watching the rest. She saw them and suddenly she didn’t think they were as low as her family said. Sure, they might not be as good as her, but that didn’t make them entirely bad. So she pushed her prejudices as far back in her mind as she could and decided she no longer wished to be so alone.It didn’t sit entirely well with her family, rather than praise she started getting scolding letters from her father, and her mother was ever more distant. Still, she managed to keep her chin up and her reputation clear, she was just perhaps a misguided girl, but a pure, and noble, and refined one; she just needed a little push back to the right path. That was what her parents’ friends assured them anyways. The truth was that she was starting to feel more estranged from her family by the day. She loved them without measure, yes, but their ideals and teachings felt wrong in her stomach.
Time passed and even if she still felt like an outsider in both worlds, her ambition to be better was greater than any other feeling. She was a teenager when she made up her mind about what was right, and even if she could only state in her own mind, she knew her family was not.
When love finally arrived in the form of everything her parents would despise, well, that was maybe the last push she needed. The relationship stayed secret, nobody could know, lest she wished to see Ted in danger, but once it began, all stolen moments and heavy kisses, Andromeda could no longer ignore the fact that she had to choose. Hard as the choice was, she managed to postpone making it until a month after graduating Hogwarts, when she noticed a growing bump in her stomach.
Andromeda didn’t desert her family in hiding, she didn’t climb out a window in the middle of the night, nor was she stolen from the gardens. No, Andromeda left her home right through the front door, after giving her father a kiss in the cheek and telling her mother she’d be back in a few hours. With an extension charm on her handbag to take with her a good part of her clothes and many things of both emotional and economical value, she headed to Gringotts and, in her last act as a daughter of House Black, she accessed her family’s vault to take a good amount of money with her into her new life.
Well into her pregnancy, she finally married the man she loved. They bought a house with the money she had taken from her family and received a beautiful daughter into their arms (even then, all ties broken with her family, Andromeda could not help but name her daughter in Black tradition of stars and myths). She also started her formal training as a healer, a dream she had not forgotten since childhood.
Now, almost ten years since she left, the skies finally started to clear, He Who Must Not Be Named disappeared, so maybe now she could start to live without fear.
