Hermione opened the letter as fast as she could. She read it through once
to herself and then out loud.
Dear Mione,
Sorry about not sending you a letter sooner. You must be worried. I'm at the Burrow right now. Please meet us at Diagon Alley on August 29th. We have so much to talk about. Ron will be pleased to see you. Well I can't tell you everything now but I promise we'll tell you at Diagon alley. We will be waiting for your reply.
Your Friend,
Harry
"Mom, can I please go." Hermione looked up at her mother pleading with her eyes
"Yes, dear you may go."
"Thank you so much." Hermione ran to her room to reply.
~*~*~*~* 2 Weeks Later~*~*~*~*
Hermione woke up bright and early on August 29th. She quickly got up and dressed. She grabbed her trunk (thankful she packed it last night) and walked quickly to the living room. Her mom and dad were already in the living room. Their conversation quieted as she entered. She looked at her moms face. It was streaked with tears. She looked at her dad. His face, too, was streaked with tears.
"Mom, Dad. What's wrong?" Hermione asked. Her hands were shaking with fear.
"Hermione, we have so bad news," her father said. He looked into her face.
"What?"
"Hermione, your mom has cancer. There is nothing we can do about it."
"No! She can't have cancer. She's fine. She's going to be ok." Tears rolled down Hermione's cheeks. "What kind of cancer?"
"She has a cancer that affects the brain."
"Why didn't you tell me before? How long have you known? "
"We didn't tell you before because the doctor said he wasn't sure if it was cancer. We got the test results in this morning. We told you as soon as possible," her mom said. Mrs. Granger walked over to her daughter and gave her a hug.
"How long do you have to live?"
"Months, weeks, days we're not sure," her father said. "Come, we need to go."
The Grangers walked out of the house toward their car. Mr. Granger loaded up the trunk. When everyone was in, they left. No one spoke a word. Hermione sat thinking about what would happen if her mother did die. Finally they arrived at Diagon Alley. Hermione got out of the car and headed for Gringotts. When she came to the steps she saw Harry and Ron waiting for her. Harry and Ron saw her too. Hermione ran towards them.
