Chapter title translation: Late Night Stroll
Dear Professor Dumbledore,
I am writing to formally ask for a chance to meet with you to discuss an urgent matter. I would appreciate it if you could meet with me. I unfortunately am unable to go into great detail about these matters as they are incredibly sensitive and can only be spoken in private. I trust that you have an idea of what my request will be to you as you are very well-connected in the magical community. I have also heard from Mr. Mergmetton that you two were once great friends and he consulted with you on private matters as well in the past. I can personally assure you that with the academic qualifications and the fact that you chose me to be a prefect this year, I will not waste your time. Please take this letter under your consideration.
With warm regards,
Camille Brochand
Camille was unable to sleep that night after the welcome feast. She spent her time going over the letter she had sent to Professor Dumbledore. She knew her tone relayed her urgency while also remaining polite. She made sure that she iterated that he chose her as a prefect demonstrating that he views her as a responsible person. Cami couldn't understand why he had told her to try harder.
The whole night she went through other ideas to get his attention so she could be deemed worthy enough to take up some of his time outside of academic hours. But alas, she had come up with nothing, if her academic record wasn't enough to garner his interest what else did she have to offer? She couldn't excel in anything other than her studies, she had been banned from ever trying out for quidditch as it was deemed "too manly for a young lady." She was too young to take her apparition test and the only extracurricular activity she had was being a part of the frog choir, practices started two weeks into the school year which would be one week too late.
Cami was practically climbing up the wall by the time she decided to cast the tempest charm which floated red letters into the air deeming it to be 6:00 am. Breakfast started at 7:30 and all the students would receive their timetables for the year. Cami was always an early riser which gave her approximately an hour and a half to get ready and head up to the Great Hall. Due to being in Slytherin, her dorms were located down in the dungeons which also housed the Hufflepuff common room and dorms.
