Manny had been - he thought - holding it together rather well. But when, that morning, he'd made a particularly talented first year intern cry over an IV charm, he realized he had not been holding it together at all. He apologized to the young witch, and then texted his brother to see about grabbing lunch together. He needed to leave the Ward, the Hospital, at least for a moment. He was always the one who took care of everyone else, he always had been, and he was not good at asking for the same for himself.
He stopped by the Leaky Cauldron and picked up lunch for two, and then flooed himself from there to the Ministry of Magic. He wound his way through the halls, keeping his eyes and his head down, worried he might see the face of the woman who had caused him to need to be here in the first place. He wasn't good at this. He felt terrible deep inside to put this sort of emotional burden on his little brother, but he really didn't know what else to do anymore. He couldn't pretend he was fine any longer. He needed to try something new.
