Meant To Be

1.02

Moving in with her two best friends was harder than it seems. Deep inside her, she wanted to decline again the offer but she know that it will be for the best.

"Are you sure I am not getting in the way of your private things, Gin?" Hermione asked for the fifth time since she moved.

Ginny looked at her like she was crazy." Of course not! Besides, Harry is busy with Auror duties."

"Oh. Okay."

It was Saturday today and there was no work for Hermione. Ginny works as a chaser and they don't have a coming game so she is free.

"Okay Hermione. We have got to hang out today!" Her friend shouted with excitement.

"Really? We have to?" She asked.

"Of course. I'm bored and all you ever do is read your book."

Hermione hesitated for a moment.

"Okay fine, I'm in."

"I'm sorry Mrs. Zabini. No one wants to apply for the job."

She hung up the phone.

"Ugh. If Hermione couldn't have a replacement then I could not go to our trip, love. I can't just leave her alone especially in her situation now."

"Love, I'm sure you can find one."

"Who?"

"Let's see..."

Just then, the door swung open.

"Hey Blaise!" the visitor greeted.

"Hey mate! How are you?"

"Ugh. Excuse me for a second." Katherine said to the two boys then left the room to continue her search.

"I had a problem finding job again Blaise." The visitor sighed.

"You're looking for a job right?" Blaise asked.

"Yeah. I'm running out of money since there are only a few vacant jobs now and they all want really good people to work for them. Others just don't want to hire me because of my past." He whispered the last part while staring towards his left arm.

"Shut up mate. I think I found you a job."

"Really? What job?"

"Would you like to be the temporary assistant of the one and only Hermione Granger?"

"Finally! Of course!" He shouted.

"Hey. What's all the excitement in here?" Katherine asked when she entered the room.

"You now have someone to take your place temporarily and we could go on to our trip!" Blaise said excitedly.

After the hang out of Hermione and Ginny, they came home with bags filled of dresses, Makeups, accessories, and for Hermione, new books.

"That was fun." Hermione said.

"Yeah, thank you Hermione."

"Why are you being thankful to me? You're the one who planned all this!"

"But without you, I could never have fun like this." Ginny said and Hermione laughed.

"Seriously! I'm not joking. You have been my friend from as far as I can remember and I really miss hanging out with you."

" I also miss hanging out with you. I'm sorry if I distanced myself from you guys." Hermione answered.

"Hermione, what is that sound?" Ginny asked while helping Hermione tidy her new things.

"Oh, It's my ringtone. This is called a cellphone. I used this to send messages and call people. Much faster than owls." Hermione explained.

"Oh. Then why is it ringing?"

"That's because my assistant Katherine just texted me. Excuse me for a second but I really need to call her."

She dialed her number and automatically she answered.

"Hey Hermione"

"Hey. What's up?" Hermione added.

"I found you a temporary assistant."

"Oh. Really. How long was this trip again?"

"2 months only." Her assistant answered quickly.

"Well, who is my new assistant?"

"Draco Malfoy."
