Seven years latter
"Hermione! Come down here, I have a list for you!" Hermione sighed, and went to the bottom floor of the house. "Yes stepmother?" Hermione said with a sigh in her voice.
"Your chores today are on this…" She got a long role of parchment that had a lot of writing on it. Hermione took the long parchment and read it.

Feed the animals
Gather apples

The list seemed to go on forever, it actually did. Hermione looked at her stepmother and nodded. "I will complete these at once."
Hermione left the room, walking in to the kitten where Nelly was cooking for the animals. "So, what dose she want this time?" Hermione showed her the role of parchment. "I'll do half of it."
"No, I'll do it." Hermione sighed getting the bucket and pail. She filed the bucket with water and went to the front hall to start cleaning the floors. When Hermione started thinking she though about her friends that she met at school. Her friends were Harry Potter; who was really famous. And Ronald Weasley who was a bit stupid. After she finished scrubbing the floors Hermione stood up, getting ready to take the bucket to the kitchen when the door bell rang.
"Hermione! Answer that door!" a voice that belonged to her stepmother.
"Yes, Stepmother!" Hermione yelled. Hermione straightened her raggedy dress and her apron, and her hair bandanna, which was holding back most of her curly brown hair, besides the few strands that stuck to her face from the sweet.
"Hello?" she asked blindly opening the door.
"Hel-" Came a voice that made Hermione look up.
"Malfoy, what are you doing here?" Hermione asked while Draco asked the same thing.
"Well, this is where I live…" she paused then whispered "unfortunately" under her breath.
"Well, I came to see a girl named Nelly, about someone…" He paused.
"Well come in… she is right this way." Hermione said leading Draco to the kitchens. "Nelly someone is here to see you!"
"Ok, I am coming… you take a look at that list and see what else you have to do!"
"OK" Hermione yelled back. She looked at Draco apologetically and unrolled the long list that touched the floor.

"Umm, I don't have much left." She turned to Draco who looked shocked.
"Did you do all of that with out magic?" He asked felling sorry for her. She nodded yes. "Why?"
"I don't have a choice, and if my wand was not taken from me every time I come home I would use magic." She replied not looking at him but the list.
"Well, I must go talk to Nelly. Umm… Nice seeing you." Draco said looking at Hermione. Then he added "Hermione." Hermione looked up at him.
"You called me Hermione! Not Mudblood."
"You aren't a Mudblood. You're pureblood. Sorry for calling you that." He replied to her.
She looked at him shocked. "It is ok-"
"No it is not, I am sorry." Draco interrupted her.
"I forgive you Draco." she replied leaving the room for him an Nelly to talk.
