Ever since Victoire had woken up that morning, groggy from whatever potion she'd been sedated with, she'd felt wrung out. Considering all the crying and stress of the night before, it was no surprise, but she was exhausted mentally, physically, and emotionally, and all she wanted to do was close her eyes and hug the bear Albus had sent.
It was humiliating, knowing she'd broken down like that in plain sight of the entire town. She was supposed to be the strong one - the one that set a good example for everyone else, and this certainly wasn't it. She'd refused most visitors during the day after extending her apologies, but she couldn't stand to face anyone, and she didn't have the energy to plaster a smile on her face and fake it. The only people she allowed into the room were her parents, Teddy, and his mother, but even then, she barely spoke and tried to rest at much as possible.
However, after everything her mother had told her had only confirmed the nightmares she'd been trying to escape for the past week, she knew this uneasy calm was just another symptom. And if she didn't at least try to get to the bottom of what had happened, she would never find her peace in this village. So, half-dreading it, she wrote a note to Teddy's father and tucked her journal under her pillow, hoping he'd really meant what he'd said the night before.
