The morning had started off so well. Still weak from the aftereffects of the transformation, Galinda had gained back a bit of her appetite to eat breakfast with her mother and Gawain that morning. If anything was amiss, she was blissfully unaware. She spent some time in the garden, watercolors and pastels in hand as she enjoyed the dappling sunlight across the flower beds. She even spent some time with her son, partaking in some painting before Lottie's owl came.
It was like a candle had been snuffed out. The day instantly grew dimmer and a little more bleak as she forced the house elves to help her search for her journal when accio did not work. When she finally did stumble across it Galinda spent most of the afternoon reading the chatter and responding here and there, most of her appetite gone.
Other owls came too. One from her current employer, Madam Malkins, informing her that while the proprietress had no qualms about her performance as an employee, others had been making a fuss and she did not want that to put business in any danger. Galinda would be given a full recommendation, but her employment would be terminated immediately. There were other owls from people she had taken commissions from and one form her landlord. Galinda did not bother to open anything else.
