"There you all," a young voice melodically called to Hermione.
The brunette looked over at a young blonde girl – no, woman – and one that she didn't have much contact with. Even so, she still knew the name of the woman. "Gabrielle Delacour, it has been a long time."
Gabrielle smiled. "It has. You look good."
"So do you," Hermione countered. "Can I help you with anything?"
Gabrielle sighed as the smile slipped off of her face. "I came here to visit my sister, but she's so busy with Bill and the new baby. I might as well be invisible for the amount of acknowledgement I got from her."
Hermione raised her eyebrows. "You're sounding a bit like a selfish brat."
Gabrielle glared at her. "I don't think it's selfish that I want to spend time with my sister, especially since I don't get to see her much. And it's just making me stress."
"You should do what I do."
Gabrielle looked at her questioningly.
"I like watching ducks, feeding the ducks. I find ducks very relaxing."
"Ducks? Really?" Gabrielle asked disbelievingly.
Hermione shrugged as she wrinkled her nose a bit. "You would be surprised how relaxing ducks are."
"Do you have duck food?"
Hermione handed over the bread. "Have fun."
And as Gabrielle threw pieces of bread on the ground, she couldn't hold in the laugh that bubbled up inside of her.
Once again, Hermione proved why she was considered the smartest witch of her generation. Ducks really were relaxing.
