Yule came as quickly as the blink of an eye. The respite was one I sorely needed and Daphne knew just how to ease my stress in ways no one else was able to. Not that I would ever let anyone attempt some of the methods Daphne uses; those were rather private and I would rather keep it that way. My parents were able to spend some alone time, an interesting occurrence considering the Greengrass manor was filled with people. Sadly, those scant few days seemed like ages ago with the current situation in my country.
