Entry #9: October 15th

Dear Tom,

I think I'm losing my memory.  There are rooster feathers all over my robes and I don't know how they got there!

~That's very odd Ginny.

I know it is Tom.

~Are you sure you don't know?  Are you trying to play a trick on me?

Honestly I'm not Tom.  I have no clue how they got on my robes!

~Did you go to the owlery?  Maybe they are owl feathers.

No, I just got up so it had to have been from last night sometime!

~What did you do last night?

Well, I wrote to you and, ummmm, I can't really think of what else.  I can't remember Tom!

~So maybe you did go to the owlery.

But Tom, I'm sure that they are rooster feathers!

~This is very odd indeed.

Help me Tom!

~Okay, you haven't told anyone about this have you?

No.

~Not anyone?

No. Why?

~Well Ginny, if you don't remember what you did, and if something happened last night, you'd have no alibi.

But surely nothing could have happened to me involving roosters!

~Maybe not, but you have to lookout for yourself Ginny.  In case someone's trying to get you into trouble!

Who would do that though?  My brothers would trick me, but they wouldn't get me into trouble!

~What about Blythe, you are still fighting with her.

I don't believe she could have done it.

~Well, it's best not to trust anyone and watch your back.

You're right Tom.  You are the only person I can trust.

~It's good to hear that Ginny!

Thanks for everything Tom.

~See you again soon Ginny!

Bye Tom!
