As soon as they landed on a wooden floor, Hermione immediately stood up.
"Wow! I am not going to do that again" Hermione spoke up, trying catch her breath. She eventually sprinted towards the older woman and helped her.
"This isn't a couple blocks away from the coffee shop" Draco muttered, while lying down.
"Thank you, Juliette. I think I must have taken the wrong port key but this is fine. This used to be my house until I moved, hoping to stop aging by joining civilization in the city" the woman stated while brushing off the dusts on her clothes. Draco was still on the floor when a cat brushed his body on Draco's face and poured.
"Get away you pesky little pest" Draco stated while pushing it away from him and he stood up. Draco brushed the dusts on his khaki pants and observed his whereabouts. It was a small yet spacious house. It was furnished with only 2 couches, a table and there were many portraits hanged. There were about 4 bookcases and a staircase.
"Where are we?" Draco asked looking at Hermione. Hermione was petting the red colored cat.
"Reminds me of my cat" Hermione said cheekily while playing with the cat. Draco rolled his eyes and observed the portraits of the house.
"We are at my house" the woman replied and walked towards the kitchen.
"I will just have to prepare our tea so please keep yourselves comfy and at home." the woman stated in the kitchen. Hermione then lifted the fat cat and carried it with her while she walked towards the large window.
"Umm madam" Hermione said
"Call me Mrs. Nockbot"
"Mrs. Nockbot. Who's the owner of the other house beside yours?"
"Well, that used to be owned by the Northwest but I don't know where they are now. They left long ago. Also Draco you do not remember?"
"Not remember what?" Draco asked, confused
"Your country house is just a few miles away from here and you do not remember Juliette Northwest? You both used to be very close" Mrs. Nockbot frowned while she explained.
"Ahh that is why it is very familiar here but I do not remember any girl named Juliet Northwest. I think you are mistaken" Draco replied
"Oh no. I remembered her well. Actually she looks just like her" Mrs. Nockbot pointed to Hermione
"Me?" Hermione asked, shocked.
"Well not that much. She had blonde hair and green eyes" Mrs. Nockbot replied and then went towards the kitchen. "i will just be making some treats. This won't take long" Mrs. Nockbot added.
"Well if that did happen, I'm sorry but I do not recall any girl named Juliette Northwest. I have met a lot of kids back then and I suppose I do not remember them all" Draco replied and sat on the couch.
"Well that's unfortunate since I think the both of you were very close" the woman replied. And it was quiet. Hermione was just staring at the house beside Mrs. Nockbot and can't get over the feeling of uneasiness. A feeling she does not understand.
"I will be back" Hermione informed and went out. Draco immediately stood up from where he sat and sprinted towards Hermione.
"What are you up to, Granger?" Draco asked. Hermione merely used her wand, muttered an unlocking spell and opened the door. It was dark, dusty and dirty.
"Gosh what kind of place is this" Draco commented, covering his nose.
"It's been empty for years, Malfoy. Obviously it would be a big dump" Hermione replied and roamed around. No furniture. There were darker rectangular marks on the wall obviously from the portraits that used to hang in there. Empty
