"Many events shocked the Wizarding world this year." Blaise Zabini , the famous Slytherin and now a successful reporter of the "Flying News" smirked as he continue reading the cue card. "Today, we are here to discuss it one by one with our special guest. A graduate from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and a fellow Slytherin , Ms. Pansy Parkinson" he stopped and leaned to the magic camera "or should I say ." suddenly Pansy's eyebrows furrowed and hit Blaise on the arm.

"Okay, Ms. Parkinson shall we start?"

"Top 5 is the House Unity Project for 7th years made by Professor McGonagall at Hogwarts. They were few students who were determined that this is the most catastrophic idea ever made BUT this project turned out pretty good,"

"Next," Pink marks started to climb on his cheeks "Top 4 is the pa-partners in this project. Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw while Slytherin and Gryffindor. I must say many snakes complained but think about this 'Potter save our arses so we decided to treat the lions as equal as us."

"Top 3 is none other than Harry-Potter-The-Boy-Who-Wouldn't-Die proposed to a former Slytherin , Ms. Tracy Davis"

"Yes of course everybody was shocked as it hit Daily Prophet, Witch Weekly, especially Flying News and others for about 3 WEEKS. Amazing! Isn't it?"

"Yes, yes, it is"

"For our Top 2, the controversial identity of our friend, 1/3 of the Golden Trio, and the Brightest Witch in Her Age, Ms. Hermione Granger. As all of you remember Hermione is known for being a muggleborn, a war heroine, 1/3 of Golden Trio, a Know-It-All as we call her" he chuckled "But the true Hermione is the only heir of a rich pureblood veela family."

"And last but definitely not the least was the proposal of Dra-…"

Hera pushed the large black button of the television. "Mom…" Hermione wore a dark green pure silk robe, her hair was placed in a tight bun, and she was seated in the center of her soft king size bed. "Hermione, You should hurry up, your prince charming is waiting for you." She smiled and placed a kiss on her head. "Yes Mom" and she started to walk to the bathroom

Flashback

"Hermione's first day at a muggle kindergarten"

"Wow! Tommy that's a good introduction of yourself. Now may we call on Hermione Jean Granger? Where is she?" Mrs. Evans exclaimed.

Mrs. Evans was Hermione's kindergarten teacher in Mathematics and English. She was 5'2 in height, has long curly hazelnut hair, round black eyes, slender body, and pouty lips.

Hermione stood, and then walk to the front. All eyes in that room followed her.

"Good Morning Mrs. Evans" Mrs. Evans nodded, "Good Morning classmates. My name is Hermione Jean Grange but you can call me Mione or Mia. I'm 5 years old. My parents are Dr. Jean and Dr. Robert Granger. They were both excellent dentists."

"So Mione, can you please tell us more about yourself such your favorite subjects, Your hobbies, The things you want to know, what would you like to be when you grow up, and your favorite book?" asked Mrs. Evans.

"I'm glad Mrs. Evans you asked me that. My favorite subject is Algebra. My hobbies are reading a lot of books and watching documentaries. The thing I want to know most are how scientist came up with good theories. I like to become a historian, to teach people our rich country's history. And my favorite book is Le Petit Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry." Hermione ended it with a smile.

"'Mione, are you sure you know Algebra, how to read, meaning of theories, and the book Le Petit Prince?" Mrs. Evans asked in confusion.

"Yes, Mrs. Evans. I'm sure I know what I have said." Hermione answered with full confidence. "I'll hand you a book and please read it aloud to the class while I'll write an Algebra problem then you'll answer it later, is that ok?" Mrs. Evans asked worriedly.

Mrs. Evans opened the marker and started to write a problem that indicates for Hermione to start reading "Ahem!"

"PINOCCHIO"

"As soon as Geppetto finishes carving him, the wooden puppet named Pinocchio starts misbehaving—playing tricks, running away, telling lies, and generally causing uproar wherever he goes. In spite of his behavior, Pinocchio yearns to be a real boy, but first he must prove himself to be good and kind. Come along on his many wild escapades as the mischievous puppet learns for him what it truly means to be human with the help of a talking cricket and a lovely fairy."

Her classmates started to clap at her excellence reading. Mrs. Evans stop writing then turned to Hermione. "Now Mione can you please answer this little Algebra problem for us?" Hermione took the marker from Mrs. Evans. The problem was:

Simplify the expression

2(a -3) + 4b - 2(a -b -3) + 5

When she writes her answer (= 6b + 5)

Mrs. Evans slowly clapped her hands then all of a sudden all the people in their applauded. "Mione, you're a very intelligent child. Do you know a grade 2 pupil can't read that fluently? And your answer… it's amazing. A grade 5 pupil will have to think the answer for many minutes but you, your just…you're amazing." The class once again applauded for her excellence. Hermione smiled at the thought.

"Hermione, dear, take a nice warm bath and fix yourself." reminded by her mother, Hera.

Her bathroom is colored with white, parasol peach, colonial revival ivory, copper, and gold. The tub is small but is simply elegant.

She filled the tub with warm water and poured her favorite vanilla and carnation liquid soap. She undresses herself and slowly dunked in the tub. She closed her eyes slowly as she comes back in her past memories.
