But the knot of tension in her chest didn’t ease. Sharing a room with Katie would mean there was no escaping the conversations she’d been trying to avoid. The questions. The concern.

Ginny swallowed hard, her fingers tightening around the handle of her broom. She wasn’t sure how she felt about it—relieved, maybe, that she wouldn’t have to deal with someone like Demelza or Julia. But the knot of tension in her chest didn’t ease. Sharing a room with Katie would mean there was no escaping the conversations she’d been trying to avoid. The questions. The concern.

The unspoken tension from the day before still lingered between them, but Katie broke the silence first. “Looks like we’re rooming together,” Katie said, her tone light but her eyes searching Ginny’s face. Ginny forced a smile, though her heart was racing. “Yeah. Just like old times, right?”
