Twenty-two year old Ginny Weasley sighed. She was sitting idly at
the kitchen table at the Burrow. Just then her sister-in-law Hermione
walked in the door.
"Hey Gin, why the long face?" Hermione asked. She pulled up a chair next to Ginny.
"Oh, nothing," Ginny replied, not wanting to tell her best friend the real reason she was upset.
"Ginny, I have known you too long to know that when you say nothing's wrong, something really is," Hermione said.
"Okay, okay," Ginny said, knowing she wasn't going to win the battle. "I'll tell you, but you have to promise not to tell mum or dad, and especially not Ron and my other brothers."
"I promise," Hermione answered. "Now tell me. What's up?"
"This is going to sound really stupid," Ginny began. "I want a boyfriend. I want life to be exciting. You're lucky, Hermione. You're married to Ron and have a great job. I'm 22 and I still live at home, working as a nurse at St. Mungo's."
"Oh Ginny," Hermione said, "that's not stupid. Don't worry. The right guy will come sooner or later. You are lucky too. You have a loving family who supports you in all that you do. Trust me, you'll find someone."
"I guess you're right. Thanks Hermione." Ginny replied.
Hermione left to go to Ron's Quidditch game. He was the keeper of the Chudley Canons. As soon as she left, an owl came through the window with the post. Ginny sorted through the mail. There was a familiar looking letter addressed to her. She opened it. It read:
Dear Miss Weasley:
We are pleased to inform you that Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is having a reunion for the graduating classes of '95-98. It will be on June 30, 2004. We hope you can attend.
Minerva McGonagall Deputy Headmistress
Ginny smiled as she finished reading the letter. Not only was that her graduating class, it was Ron, Hermione, Fred, and George's classes too. She wished Harry could be there. He had died in the Final Battle with Voldemort two years ago.
"This is great!" Ginny said aloud. "Maybe I'll meet someone there!"
**********
Later on that evening, Ginny confirmed with the twins and Ron and Hermione that they had gotten their letters. The four of them, plus Katie and Angelina (the twin's wives) planned to go together to the reunion.
Ginny could not wait until the reunion, which was a month away.
