AH, SUMMER. VERONICA LOVED AND hated it. Loved it considering it meant a fast incline in sales and business — perfect for any wand maker and store owner in this day and age but hated because…Well. Everyone was home. Including her troubling son. She loved Gideon to bites like any other mother, but this summer was different from the rest. The papers called it Hag’s Fever and luckily everyone but Veronica’s parents were healthy. Or so she knew of anyway.
Sat on the steps in front of her home, a cigarette held between her middle and index finger, Veronica sparked the bud of the cigarette with her magic, inhaling quickly and shakily exhaling. She wouldn’t know what to do if her parents worsened, but no news around the Fever had announced if any magical being had died from it, so that was a relief. What the Ollivander wasn’t looking forward to most was her child complaining about her promises falling short due to the quarantine. Yes, she wanted to celebrate Gideon’s passing into Fifth Year abroad — despite the amount of detentions the boy had received close to the end of the year — but alas, the British Isles was on lock down.
Instead she continued to wallow in her thoughts, sucking in the bitter puffs of the cigarette and breathing out as she thought. Did this mean the Ollivander summertime ball was potentially cancelled? Despite it mostly being family and friends. Merlin, there was so much to do, people to see and talk to it felt ridiculous.
