She brushed the dust off her clothes and stepped out of fireplace. The door creaked open and a pretty women nearly of her age entered. She had covered her head just like the woman in portrait but a few locks of hair were on her forehead, her eyes were adorable but something was missing in them, deep down there was something that made them look a bit uncomfortable. She then realized it was the problem in portraits too, there was no shine, no mark of happiness, or life. The woman stared at her with who-are-you-and-why-are-you-here look, and then spoke in a beautiful but slow voice
"You must be the Minister af England, i received the awl yesterday",
she had a problem with 'O'.
Hermione could hear some strange and very unusual sounds from nowhere. She couldn't recognize them but she knew she had heard them somewhere. They were so cruel, so sad that listening to them brought heat in her eyes.
"Ummm, yeah, my name is Hermione Granger".
She shook her hand and said "I am Areej Sayid, Minister of Syria,' nice to meet you mrs Granger".
She spoke so beautifully Hermione could hear her whole day, but her voice was cold, and the lips spoke as though they had never smiled.
She sat on the chair and took out a stool, Hermione sat, still looking at her,
"I am sarry, we don't have another chair" she spoke quietly and sadly.
"It's okay, is this your office?" Hermione asked,
"yes" she replied, sighed and spoke again "I knaw what you are thinking, mrs Granger, there was once a time when we were just like you, when we were rich, when we had beautiful buildings and hauses (houses) too"
For a second Hermione was dead sure she saw tears in her eyes. "What happened?", her weak eyes suddenly became active, she was looking at Hermione as though she had left a very important fact while reading.
"You don't knaw? Don't you know why we are like this?" she spoke loudly and clearly,
"Like what?", the moment Hermione said this, she wished to take it back because the look on Areej's face, the expression gave her creeps.
She started to say something but stopped, she did it twice and then finally spoke "i am afraid i can't tell you, you want (wont) get it. You need to see it with yaur eyes. i hope you are brave enaugh to fight in case you need to defend you, are you?".
The word fight made her regret coming, she had to fight to defend her? Were they going to try to kill her because they were terrorists?
"Ah, yes i can fight, but why would i need to..",
"Because nat (not) all autsiders (outsiders) are like you, mrs Granger, nat everyone has a heart" she spoke quickly, Hermione didn't get it.
