BIRDIE LOVED SHOPPING even as a child when most kids would beg for their mom to take them home, Birdie always wanted to stay in the store as long as she could — but of course, Lily Potter couldn't stay out for more than an hour most if she had taken the polyjuice potion. Birdie of course didn't get it as a kid and would often throw tantrums which now she feels bad about when she looks back at it, but she was just a child, after all.

Too late for that.

There was some scribbling after that, and a few drops on ink that had fallen on the parchment, and then the handwriting changed to James's messy one.
