Disclaimer: I owned none of the characters (JKR owned them), except for a few of them, which is created by me.
Thanks Sturtle for your encouragement, I need it very much, as I am stuck with another story, the one I mentioned in "Never had a dream come true", the parallel story if Eve accepted the offer to go to Hogwarts when she was eleven... God, hope I overcome the `stuck' soon.
Please read and review.
Until we meet again
I have never thought I will ever see her again, but fate seems really kind to me this time...
Chapter 6 Celebration
"Bertha, you sure you are alright?" Ginny asked her, who noticed that her face was swollen quite seriously.
"I am fine. Don't worry. It will be all right in a few days. I still have seven days before my holidays end. I have more than enough time." She laughed, hurting herself again.
"Could you stop laughing for just a few minutes? You are freaking me off." Fayanna really wanted to tell everyone that she was no friend of hers, who laughed uncontinuously for over three hours.
"Let her be. She waited this moment for ages." Ben sighed, who had come with Fayanna to meet them later after the gathering. They were stuck in traffic, as both of them had to work that afternoon.
"I am just glad she is allergic to alcohol, or else, I can't imagine what she will do." Miranda laughed.
"Well, you bet it. If I can drink, I would possibly be drunk now!" She looked at everyone, "Do you guys have any plan next? I'll buy everyone dinner tonight."
"Not us. We have a date afterwards. We'll see you guys later." And they immediate ran out of sight.
"How about you guys?"
"I am free. You know I don't want to cook tonight anyway." Miranda whispered to Remus, "You guys better accept it, it's rather rare for her to buy anyone dinner, especially I am afraid I can't deal with her on my own with her in a state like this."
"We are all going then."
"Hurray! Then let's move." Bertha led the way.
*******************
Everyone has a good evening. They had seafood for dinner. Seafood of every possible kind. Lobster, prawn, scallop, mussels, which was quite an experience for Harry, Hermione, Ron, Ginny and Draco, as it was quite different from the food they normally had. Obviously, everyone loved it. Then she brought the gang to Mongkok to try the snacks that Harry told him Eve had mentioned to them about. By the end of the night, everyone was so full that it was quite a miracle that they could still move.
"Sirius, how long are you guys going to stay for?" Bertha asked him, before leaving them at the hotel.
"A week or so. We can't let the kids stay the whole holiday. They have exams afterwards."
"Great. Give me a call if you guys don't mind, because I am free the next week, and I think it would be fun to be a tour guide rather than stay at home watching television every day." Bertha smiled at him.
"That's great. Meet us tomorrow at the reception at nine in the morning. We can see where the kids want to go."
"See you then. Bye." She kissed on his cheek. "Bye, Remus. See you tomorrow." Then she left with Miranda.
Sirius could only stand and look at the direction she left, even though she was out of sight already.
"So, someone has a crush on Bertha, I assume?" Remus stated from behind.
