The next day, Cho received an owl from Harry. The snowy white owl tapped on Cho's office window with its beak, which caused quite a commotion from her nosey co-workers. Cho felt that something unpleasant had come for her. Indeed it was true.
Dear Cho,
I'm sorry about last night, I didn't know what I was doing. About the ring, keep it, as an apology. Take care. Harry
Cho didn't need an apology, and certainly this letter seemed quite unnecessary. She wished to petrify the time yesterday as it was. Suddenly, she felt an anger, she collected her things and left work, not caring whether she will get fired or not. She ran as fast as she can towards the ocean and stood there, breathing really hard. The fresh air eventually calmed her down. She hesitantly took off her ring. The ring was hard to get, it clunk on to Cho like a koala baby holding on to its mother tightly. She held the ring close to her heart. Her whole body shivered, but she held back her tears and whispered to herself, "No more Harry Potter!" She tossed her hand high into the air. Cho put her hands by her thighs and fell down. She didn't cry, but the sorrow she was feeling was indescribable. The pain she's feeling at this moment could not be chased away like children running towards the pigeons for fun. Inside her gentle hand was that shimmering ring, marked Harry Potter. Then and there, she experienced a really bad head ache and she fainted.
Harry sat in his locker room, muttering some words to himself. "Why didn't you just say that ring was for her? Why didn't you stay last night? Why? Why? Just because she refused you 5 years ago in that Yule ball?"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry stood there nervously and afford to murmur a few words. "Wangoballwime?"
"Sorry?" The curious Cho said.
Harry was afraid to stare into the gleaming eyes of Cho and said shyly, "D'you----d'you want to go to the ball with me?"
Harry's heart shattered when Cho said, "I've already said I'll go with someone else."
Harry watched Cho's beautiful shadow disappear as he sighed to himself.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Ron sat down on his squeaky couch with a cup of Jasmine tea. "So.you still haven't told me why you asked my mom to buy the ring and inscribe your name on it? Who's that lucky gal?"
Harry was silent. Ron, knowing what Harry was going to say, " Do you honestly think I don't know, after all those years of being your best friend that I wouldn't know what you are thinking? Why?"
"Why what?" Harry said hopelessly, pretending not to understand.
"Why don't you ask her? Whether she loved you or not?" Ron replied.
"So I could make a fool out of myself like my fourth year in Hogwarts?! So I could be let down once again?! So I could be rejected by the most beautiful woman in the world?!" Harry yelled in frustration. "I'm sorry.I, I don't know what's gotten into me? It's just I have a bad feeling." Harry said tiredly staring outside the window. The rain tapped on the window gently.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Look who's staring this way, Cho?" One of Cho's friends, Patilla, teased.
Cho stared into the direction of the Gryffindor table, paying attention to the small, jet-black-haired boy. She blushed at the sight of Harry.
Cho stared out into the dormitory window, listening to the peaceful rain soaking into the grass. Suddenly, she rose up, scaring all her roommates and searched through her trunk for her Comet-260. "I'm going out." She said excitedly.
On her way out of the castle, she bumped into Harry. "Oh, I am so sorry!" She gave Harry one of her famous moderate smile.
"Where are you going?" Harry asked timidly.
"C'mon, bring your broom and come with me! I'll show you!"
Excited at Cho's offer, Harry hurried up into his common room and got his broom, and ran as fast as he could down to the entrance of the castle.
"I do warn you, if we get caught, we will be in lots of trouble." Cho warned, making haste towards the Quidditch field. Harry nodded, staring at Cho's soaking hair and sniffing the Jasmine scent that came out of her hair.
Cho mounted the broom and flew off. "C'mon Harry, what are you waiting for?"
"We haven't any snitch." Harry yelled out in the rain. "Who needs a snitch when you've got someone as big as me?" Cho laughed. "My broom may not be as fast as yours, but I do say, I'm a sneaky little one!"
Harry enjoyed this game, he loved the idea of Cho as a snitch. He didn't go at his maximum speed because he wanted this game to last longer. At last, he caught Cho. Together, arm in arm, they fell off their brooms.
"I'm sorry." Harry apologized. Realizing he was still holding onto Cho, he pulled away.
Cho blushed and wiped off the mud in her face. She took out her handkerchief and wiped Harry's face. They were like that for a few moments when Cho snapped back, " Oh, right, I'm not your mother." Cho giggled.
"You know, I love rainy days, they get me so excited. I just want to come out and let the rain pour onto me." She kept silent. "It's nice to share this feeling with someone."
Harry stared at Cho for a long time and he looked away.
