Capítulo 100: Chapter 100: Apologies And Flattery

I left Willow in her room a short time later, hoping she'd get some rest and wondering if I was going to be able to do the same soon. I took a long moment at the top of the stairs, the quiet of the house telling me everyone who was into shouting and tossing accusations had either stopped or gone to bed, too. The soft ticking of the grandfather clock offered a bit of a soothing backdrop as I finally sighed out my weariness and headed down the stairs.

I found Dad and Crew talking quietly in the sitting room, Mom with them. Petunia left me to leap up on the sofa next to my mother and snort a deep exhale of her own before settling her chin on Mom's lap and closing her eyes. Poor pug, she was as tired as I felt.
