Title: Regrets
Author: thesmallhobbit
Rating: G

Lady Trelawney Hope tried without success to comfort her grieving sisters.  Both had lost sons.

Through her tears the eldest sobbed “To think that one letter could lead to so much death.  You should be grateful, Hilda, that you have no child to mourn.”

Lady Hope woke with a start, thankful that Eduardo Lucas had been killed by his wife.

What a haunting "what if"-scenario. Me, I was very thankful it was but a dream. I can well see Lady Hilda and her husband being plagued by such nightmares even after the whole affair had come to a "discreet" and good ending.

I know it's only a story, but every time I read it I feel that "what if" sense.
