"Please," she gestured with her wand towards the arm chair opposite of her. Gretta created a soft-spot for Lucille after she had learned a little about her pass. She wasn't sure whether she truly liked her or pitied her for dating such an idiot as Mr.Rider. "Darling you look distraught or rather bothered," she added fingering her robes for her wand and conjuring two green teas which landed softly on the table stand splitting the two arm chairs.
Taking a sip of her tea, she gestured towards the chair and also the tea hoping she would relax her nerves and slowly spill about her problems. "What's the matter dear," she asked kindly stowing her wand away and waiting patiently for a response.
That sounded awkward. Lucy and Gretta were only one year appart and there she was, Gretta calling her dead. It made her feel young and too much like in a first job. Not even Samantha called her dear, and she was allowed to.
If Luce had any clue that Gretta Amerie knew about her past, she would have walked out that office in that same second. She had changed, she trusted people, but she didn't tend to trust people who knew too much about her, unless she had told them about it herself.
But luckily, she didn't realize any of that.
"Thank you." she replied polite as she sat down on the chair. "I received a letter from Hogwarts. During this school year, two students were murdered inside the school's property. Inside the caslte itself, actually." Luce had had time to think of a way to expos ethe problem in a logical, clear and not biased point of view.
"It might not be our place, but it's something we must pay attention to. Plus, I presume you recall the werewolves incidents last year." if not, she remember
that conference meeting when Luce had presented Jake with her very strong opinions about that matter.
Poor guy.
But I was right.
