~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~And so it begins*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Last day of Cho's sixth year was a pleasant day. In the morning, she woke up to the song of the mockingbirds. Getting up and was about to brush her long, raven hair, her owl Rhea flew in. The jet-black owl landed on Cho's bed rim and hooted a salutation. "Good morning, Rhea." She stopped to open her window and inhaled a big breath. "Wonderful morning, isn't it? So excited to get home and taste some of mum's famous cooking!" She smiled to herself as she thought about what her parents have in store for her this summer. Every year, her most generous parents and she would head off to another country for a nice, ordinary muggle trip, meaning they don't use magic during their period of vacation. Why they never use magic during the trip was a mystery; it was not like anyone on her side of the family was a muggle or that the muggles might see them do magic. According to Cho's dad and mum, they wanted her to get more in contact with the world, muggle and wizard. After pondering for what seemed like hours, Rhea hopped near Cho, dropping a post. "Oh, I'm deeply sorry, Rhea." She chuckled at how ignored her pet. Cho reached her delicate fingers on the seal of the letter when the head girl barged into the door of the dormitory. "Come on, girls! Get yourselves ready for the end of the year celebration!" Cressida's voice echoed through the room, waking up everyone except for Cho, who was obviously widely awake.
"Oh, come one Cressida, it's only 7:00 in the morning. Celebration doesn't start until an hour." One of Cho's roommates complained half asleep. "Now you know how long it takes for you girls to get ready, I don't want any complaints! Now, now, make haste! Carpe diem!" Cressida said in a sing- song tone. "Blimey! This girl is getting perkier everyday, she's got to get a boy to control her." A girl whispered to Cho. "I heard that, Miss McDawson!" Everyone in the room laughed, which caused all sleepyheads in the room to wake up completely.
Cho's always loved her roommates, they were so caring and funny. As a Chinese girl, Cho's got many friends. In fact, she is one of the most popular girl in school. She was also the prettiest girl in Hogwarts. Her beauty is so remarkable, her friends would often tease her that she would probably be in Hogwarts, A History under the title of "Beauty" in the future. Since Cho was so radiant, it is natural that many guys fancy her, including the famous Harry Potter. Half of the guys in school, ranging from Gryffindor to Slytherin, have fallen head over heels for her. Cho may be a Ravenclaw, witty, but she is very clueless about anything having to do with romance. How she got into a relationship with the Triwizard Tournament champion, Cedric Diggory, was still very weird for her. Unfortunately, in her fifth year, Cedric have fallen under the hands of the evil dark lord. But as time elapsed, Cho's pain was slowly wearing off. Often in times, she would think back all her happy and sad times with Cedric. He will always be in her heart.
As Cho walked slowly towards the Great Hall, she watched the looks hard at the corridor, seeming like she was afraid that by the time she comes back, everything will change. Entering the hall of the excited, boisterous Hogwarts students, she sat down at her table with her friends. She spotted Harry, who's emerald eyes sparkled at the look of Cho. Cho gave a friendly smile and waved to him. She could tell that Harry was blushing crimson. Kiana reached over to Cho and smirked, "That boy sure has an adorable crush on you. Why don't you give him a try? Your excuse before was he was too kiddish for you, but he's so fit now." "Oh, bugger off, Kiana!" Cho said, half chuckling.
The celebration went on with success. Professor Dumbledore made his end-of- the-year speech, bidding farewell to the seventh year and wishing them good luck. Gryffindor, as usual, won the house cup. As everyone cheered excitedly at the Gryffindor table, a blond hair boy stared in envy in the direction of Harry Potter.
When the party ended, everyone filed out of the hall cheerfully. Reaching towards the Hogwarts train, someone bumped into Cho really hard. Trying to pick herself back up, she said apologetically, "I'm sorry. Are you alright?" "Shut up! Miss Perfect!" Draco yelled and stormed away. It was obvious that Draco was still angry from looking at Harry, so cheerful during the celebration. Even the being able to go home for the summer part wasn't able to cheer him up. Cho's friend, Bridget, got the worse side of her. "Hey, you git! How dare you talk to Cho that way?! You know darn well you were the one who bumped into her!" Bridget shouted in spite of the noises in the corridor. Draco stopped dead and walked briskly towards Bridget and Cho. "I'll tell you one thing, Hickam! I," He emphasized on the "I." "get to do anything I want! And you can't stop me, you worm!" "Don't talk to Bridget that way." Cho defended Bridget politely. "And you, Chang! Think you're very pretty. Well, I'll tell you one thing! You are as ugly as a troll! If you were the last female on earth, I wouldn't marry you!" Draco said coldly. He added disgustedly, "Plus, I don't care for Chinese either, such dirty race." That offended Cho greatly. It wasn't like her to get angry at anyone, she got along with everyone greatly, but this was just not the case. "Listen, Malfoy! I wouldn't marry you either if you were the last man on earth! You, you, Creature!" Cho spat out, a bit surprised of what she said. Draco sneered, "that is the worst come back I've ever heard, and they say you're witty! Ha!" He turned around and left, satisfied that he ruined someone's day at least.
Cho stood there, never had she been so angry before. She thought to herself, "Blasted Malfoy!" The rest of the trip was definitely not pleasant for Cho. She sat quietly in her compartment, not joining into her friend's conversation. She remembered the letter she's received that morning and reached into her pocket to take out a lavender envelope. It read:
Cho dear,
About the trip you may be looking forward this summer must be cancelled. Your father and I have something very important to do. While we take care of our business, you will stay with your aunt Elsie.
[the rest of the writing seemed messier, obviously, Cho's dad cut in] I'm sorry dear, that your mum and I must leave you for the summer. But you'll have a mighty good time with your aunt since she loves you so much, plus she lives in a manor.
[the writing was neat again] Cho dear, remember, you're old enough to take care of yourself now. Don't cause any trouble for Aunt Elsie. We love you so much. Do take care!
The note ended with Cho's parents' signatures. Cho sighed, "Well, at least aunt Elsie will have lots of fun activities for me."
