Pansy tried her best as Millicent pulled herself together, but she could see it was a struggle to do so. 'Sweetheart....' she said with the utmost sympathy.
'Darling, I know it was the most awful, most traumatic thing you've ever had to go through, and it's going to be hard. Maybe you need to talk to someone, Millicent. There are people the healers can recommend, people who can help you deal with something like this,' she suggested. 'You have to do something, Millicent. You have a beautiful daughter who needs you and loves you more than anything,' she told her.
She bit her lip, trying to think, but she was out of her element here. 'You do seem tired, love,' she sympathized. 'Why don't you let me keep Ella at my house for a few days....let you get some rest?' she offered.
