Daphne's POV

"What! This is not possible the healer said she had 2 weeks" says Freya snatching away the letter.

"If she was lucky" adds Blaise

"Lately your father's letters don't seem to convey good news" says Astoria

"Hold on. Who are we talking about again" asks Draco

"Yeah can anyone tell us what the hell is going on, who's gone" says Theo who clearly has no clue

"Ok why don't you calm down now, I'll tell you" I say to the two clueless boys

"Ok first question why do Hermione and Blaise look like their dog just died" says an angry Draco being sarcastic.

"Its Mrs. Zabini she's sick that's the reason Blaise and Freya are back"

"Not sick Daphne she's dead" say Freya, Astoria goes to comfort the twins.

"Right, dead. The healer said she had only a week to live, two weeks if she was lucky" I continue explaining

"Clearly she was not lucky" says Blaise

"Wait so you four knew this and you never told us, why?" asks Theo

"He's right are we not trustworthy" says Draco then Astoria speaks up

"It's not that uncle Robert told them to keep it quiet. We just found out yesterday when they wrote to us"

"When's the funeral" asks Draco empathically

"We don't know it just says we need to get back to the manor" says Freya

"Well then what are we doing here" says Theo

We all floo back to the Zabini Manor.

The Zabini Manor, London

Draco POV

We enter the manor and we see Fiona's body being taken outside, Hermione immediately burst into tears. I don't know why but it pains me to see her like this. I see the healer coming downstairs me and Blaise go to talk to him

"How did this happen you said a weak at least" questions Blaise

"These estimations are made on how long you think the patients immunity level are stable, her immunity level dropped and her heart gave up. My condolences for you loss master Zabini" and with that he went outside

"Son" we hear the voice of Robert Zabini behind us and it looks like he'd been crying for a while before this "The funeral is tomorrow at 9:00 it's a private funeral so plan accordingly" he says and goes to join the healers.


Theo's POV

It was a private funeral I look around and see Hermione and Blaise crying and Daphne comforting the twins and Draco and Astoria burning candles and putting flowers on Mrs. Zabini's grave and Mr.Zabini himself standing there in a corner staring at his wives grave.

After the service we all remember all the good memories all of us had with Fiona she was like a second mother to all of us.

Suddenly Draco says "Well at least she'll be at peace now she was suffering for a long time" 

And Blaise tell us that "She wanted everything to go as planned she wanted us to celebrate Christmas and have the ball. Did she really think it was going to be that easy"

"No she didn't, not even a little bit" says Mr.Zabini and we all noticed a packed suitcase behind his back

"Going somewhere?" asks Hermione

"Yes dear, Our properties In Spain were in your mother's name and I need to sort that matter out at once, I'm also planning on visiting Madrid I wish convey the news of Fiona's sad demise to my in-laws myself.

"When will you be back" she asks again "I should be back by new year's eve" answers Mr. Zabini

"I'll write when I can now do you remember what I said?" he says

"Yes we do, stay safe" says Blaise

"Adios papa, come back soon" adds Hermione.

"Goodbye my dears" and with that he left.
