PRIVATE TO LUCRETIA
Lucretia,

I wish to apologise for my unruly behaviour in the last few days. I wish I could say I didn't know what came over me, but the truth is I've been extremely careless and offensive in my increasing days as a soon-to-be mother. I hope you can understand at least a modicum of what I'm going through, having lost everything in one fell swoop and how to learn to live without all that I once had. I also hope that you believe me sincere with this apology, because I truly did not mean to make such a scene. I hope this letter finds you well.

Fondly,
Cedrella Weasley
