Hermione sighed into her pillow as she lay down on her bed. She had been up in her room for a good three days now, mostly crying her eyes out. She didn't want to talk to anyone. Why? Her parents were getting a divorce, that's why. Sure, other kids parents got divorced too, but why her? She started to cry again but was soon disrupted by a tapping sound on her window. She turned onto her side to see an owl waiting impatiently by the window. She groaned as she got up and made her way to the window slowly. No sooner had she opened the window the owl had left, she had the letter in her hands.

She recognized the handwriting, how could she not? It was a letter from her friend Ginny, she opened the letter and read:

Hey Hermione!

I just wanted to write you to see how you are. I heard about you parents, and I am SO sorry. But I bet you keep on hearing that enough eh? Why don't you come down to the burrow over the summer? We can relax and do girl stuff:) Don't write back, just come at your leisure…maybe in a couple of days? I know you must feel so bad right now… just come over here to relieve the stress. O god, my moms yelling again, fred and George must have done something…maybe you wont be able to relieve your stress here…nah who am I kidding of course you will! Ron has been DYING to see you ;) ha. I hope to see you soon!

Love,

Ginny

Hermione dropped the letter and almost jumped in the air out of joy. She really needed to get out of this hell-hole. She got out some suitcases that just happened to be conveniently stored in her closet and started to pack. She was done in about half an hour. With 3 suitcases ready to go she wrote a note and left it in her room for her parents, just in case.

Mom and Dad,

I left. To Ginny's house to be exact. Don't worry, I just really need to get away from here; its too stressful. I hope you understand. I'll probably be there for the entire summer. I be back a couple of days before the first term of school starts however. I hope everything runs smoothly around here while I'm gone

Hermione

And with that she was off
