Falling in love with someone trapped in a diary from decades ago was no easy feat. The diary served as their only means of communication, with Tom and her exchanging words back and forth through the pages. Sometimes, if he were lucky, Tom could use the diary to transport her back in time to when he was still a student at Hogwarts, allowing them to be together in a way. As he watched her studying the pages with a furrowed brow, Tom couldn't help but feel a pang of longing for her presence.

Suddenly, the diary seemed to come alive, the words appearing on the page as if by magic. "Is something bothering you, my dear?" it wrote. Tom could sense her unease through the words on the page, wishing he could be there in person to comfort her. But for now, the diary would have to suffice as their only connection.
