"Who's that?"

"Oh, that's Hannah Abbott. She's become quite the oddball. Always hiding underneath that sheet of yellow hair."

"Hah, I couldn't even recognize her. Her hair isn't even blonde any more."

"Yeah, she can't even be bothered to wash it."

"Since when did she become like this? I never noticed the change. I always thought she was that quiet, sensitive Hufflepuff girl."

"Her mother died, I think. And she is a quiet Hufflepuff girl; she's just become less sensitive and slightly demented since her mother's death. I don't think she even listens to what anyone says anymore. Look, she should be able to hear us, but she's just standing there."

Giggles.

"Hey, Hannah!"

More laughter.

"See, she doesn't listen. We'd best be on our way, we're just wasting our time."


Hannah hears everything.

But she doesn't listen.

She isn't the sweet, sensitive Hufflepuff girl anymore, that's right. She does hide underneath a sheet of yellowing hair. She doesn't wash it. And everyday, under her duvet, she simply lies awake. Her eyes are ringed with a shade of deep purple.

And she doesn't know if she's demented. All she knows is that there are a million little explosions in her head whenever she tries to think.

She can't even cry.

Hannah Abbott is an empty shell, an echo of the beautiful, healthy girl she was before.


a/n - again with the word limit, but i think i did a better job on this one than the last chapter. it's up to you readers to decide, of course, so do leave a review telling me what you think of this!
