Ms. Cadwallader was an awfully formal title - it reminded her of her mother, or even her grandmother. She stepped into the office and sat down even if Vinny apparently didn't want to. Sure, she was also nervous about speaking to the lawyer, but they hadn't done anything in the town except be sweet and polite to her teammates. Her mother had been thrilled to see how Vinny was taking to Ava, even if Victoria had insisted that it was going to be a long time before they had any children of their own.
She'd conveniently forgotten, at that point, that being a godmother to Ava meant that they could potentially become the girl's parents. Victoria suddenly felt much more nervous about the whole situation - and once she saw that Ava was in the room, that nervousness amplified.
Ava was a sweet girl, true - but Victoria wasn't sure she was ready to be a mother. That was a lot of responsibility for her to deal with after having next to none for much of her life in Saskatchewan. She supposed she was getting older, and being in England had helped her get her head on a little straighter, but...
She settled for wiggling her fingers at Ava with a smile. No need to freak out about anything until she was sure of things, after all.
"...of course we're glad to see that she's all right, but -- what is this all about?"
