When Hermione woke up the next day all she could do was wonder who the stranger was in her room. She thought of everyone who knew she was at the orphanage, but she couldn't think of any men she knew. They only guys she thought who knew where she was where Harry, Ron, Draco, Mr. Malfoy and Professor Dumbledore. Maybe it really is a stranger, I most likely don't know the person and they know me. Man this is going to kill me. I've got to find out who it was. Hermione thought to herself.
"Hermione, you ok? You've been really quite all day," Jessica said. She was sitting on her bed listening to music and just staring at Hermione.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Why are you looking at me like that," Hermione asked. She was feeling a little weird with Jessica staring at her like that.
"No reason," Jessica said and she went back to listening to her music. Hermione got off of her bed and walked over to her bags. She sat down on the floor next to the bags and started to look in them. She found what she was looking for.
"What's that, Hermione," Jessica asked when she saw what Hermione had gotten out of her bag.
"A picture book, I need to take some pictures out and frame them. I just realized I don't have any of my favorite things on the walls," Hermione said. She started to open the picture book, and the first picture she saw was the one of her and her parents last year on her fifteenth birthday. That was the year they had given her puppy.
"Shit," Hermione said.
"What," Jessica asked.
"I forgot my puppy at my friend's house. She was supposed to watch it for me. My parents where going to take me out for my birthday and she was going to watch him for me. Shit, shit, shit," Hermione said as she smacked herself on the forehead.
Hermione jumped off of her bed and ran out of the room. She ran down the hallways until she reached Mrs. Regina's office. Hermione knocked on the door and walked in.
"Excuse me, but I need to go back to my friends house and get my puppy," Hermione said. Mrs. Regina looked at Hermione and smiled.
"That's already been taken care of, is this the puppy," She asked, pointing to a fuzzy white puppy in the corner of the room. He was lying down on a bunch of blankets
"Thank you so much. I can't believe I almost forgot about, Colby," Hermione said. She walked over and picked up the puppy and laid him down in her arms. Hermione looked up Mrs. Regina
"You shouldn't be thanking me. You should thank young Mister Malfoy. He's the reason why you have you dog back," She said, looking back down at her papers on the desk.
"I'll thank him next time I see him," Hermione said. She turned around and walked out of the room. There was something about Mrs. Regina that Hermione didn't like. She didn't really know what it was yet, but she knew it was something.
As Hermione was turning a corner she bumped into someone. Colby looked up at the person Hermione had bumped into and started to bark. Hermione looked at who she had bumped into and saw none other than Mr. Malfoy.
"Why do you have that thing," He said with a look of disgust on his face. Hermione looked down at Colby and then back up at Mr. Malfoy.
"Because, your son went and picked him up from a friend of mine," Hermione said with a smile. Mr. Malfoy looked down at Hermione with a funny face.
"Yeah right, like my son would do something nice for a mudblood like you," He said with the same smirk that Draco had used on her for so many years. Hermione looked down at the ground trying to control her anger.
"If I disgust you that much then why are you letting me live in this orphanage," Hermione said.
"So that I can control your every move, you won't be able to do anything without me oking it," Mr. Malfoy said. Hermione looked back up at him, tears of anger where starting to fall out of her eyes.
"You'll never control anything I do," Hermione said. She started to walk away, but Mr. Malfoy caught her free arm.
"You have a family that wants to adopt you," He said.
"Who," Hermione asked. Mr. Malfoy looked away from her.
"The family of the cop that took you here," He said with an even more disgusted voice. He looked back at Hermione and she could see the hatred in his eyes.
"You will never be able to escape the filth that you where made of. You will always be loved by the muggles," He said letting go of Hermione's arm. Hermione looked at Mr. Malfoy and started to back away from him.
"Any you will never be able to escape the disgrace that you have put on the wizarding world. You're kind is one of the main reasons why we have to hide the magical world. You think that everyone is below you," Hermione said and walked away.
