It started raining a long time ago . 'It has been a few hours' she thought 'yet the storm is only getting stronger '. She watched the wind raging. Everything seemed so peaceful for a while.
She couldn't avoid her problems much longer .
'I will have to face reality and go back outside soon' .
She would have to put on that fake smile she despised so much. There was nothing for her left here , her parents long gone , friends avoiding her when needed the most.
Looking towards the table where her engagement ring stood , the melancholic mood was replaced by anger at the sight of the small object .
She never wished for something big or luxurious but she wanted something special . Never having had much jewelry ,she didn't even think twice when Ron has presented her with the ugly steel ring . While not being able to afford any with her working in a library on Diagon Alley , one would have thought he would at least get her something more eye pleasing with his stable job as an auror. She frowned at the thought of her poorly paid job .
Five years ago after Harry defeated Voldemort , Ron convinced her to move in with him and his family . He took advantage of her family's death and made her give up on her dream of working in the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures.
Remembering Mrs. Weasley's words to her , she tried to get rid of her bad thoughts . She shouldn't regret dating that dunderhead , after all , she used to love him . She tried to think about their happy moments together , only to be left with a sour aftertaste .
'We didn't have any joyful moments' she realized . Nothing special came to her mind no matter how hard she tried .
Why has she been with him for so long then? What was she even waiting for ?
She looked around the room .Dust could be seen across every bit of flat surface . She had moved in the apartment a few weeks ago . No one has yet tried to come in contact with her.
She spotted her luggage under the bed as she sighed .
What was wrong with her ? The bitter thought of being alone clouded her mind . She needed to get out of here.
Searching the drawers she found what she was looking for . She grabbed the golden necklace and put it around her neck . 'Her purse' she remembered .
She's going to take her money and wand . She would leave everything else behind , the clothes and books she needn't .
Thinking hard about her destination she decided to visit America . She had read many books about it . It shouldn't take her much to get used to the new environment and she could surely find a quick job there .
Feeling around her neck , she knew she had to return the necklace . Before going to explore the world , she would need to give McGonagall back the time turner .
She took her wand out and started swinging it , until realization hit her . Hogwarts has been her home for almost a decade . She had to see it one more time .
No.
She had to experience it . Her school days are her best memories . If only she could go back in time . Chuckling , she brushed away the thought of using the device .
'What day is it even ?'
She thought about it , only to realize that today was 1st of September . School starts today .
The train !Looking at her hand watch she started to run .
It read 10:14.
Her apartment was close to the station , surely she could make it on time .
