Hermione reached just in time.Mr and Mrs Clinton were just leaving for their special dinner.

"Miss Granger,we will be back in two hours.Look after Brad and put him to sleep in an hour in his room in the first floor.I have paid you money to the head of the department."

After this,they apparated to their hotel.Hermione entered the house.It was a prettily furnished house and everything looked New and posh.She saw a kid of five in the living room who was playing with his flying broom keychain.

"Hello Brad!!"she chimed.

The kid turned and looked at her with his brown eyes.

Hermione Sat near him and spoke a few sweet words which made him comfortable.Soon the kid liked her and started playing with her.

"Aeroplane!!"shouted the kid.

Hermione took a piece of paper and made an aeroplane.When she was young,her father had taught her how to make an aeroplane.She also wondered how a wizard kid knows about anything that flies apart from brooms and flying carpets.

Half blood...she thought.

She handed it to the boy who pouted.

"Aeroplane..fly!!"

Hermione threw it in the air but it crashed on the ground.Brad frowned.She took her wand and made it fly.

Brad enjoyed it.Then they laughed and sued a few more games.Hermione put him to sleep in his bed.

When she was about to leave,a poster that stuck on the wall caught her attention.It was the Red Cannons quidditch team.

Hermione felt a lightening strike her.Ron was the team's vice captain.His picture was there in the poster.

Hermione's stomach dropped a few inches.She left for the living room.She had half an hour more.She decided to quickly visit Ginny.

She apparated to The Burrow.Ginny was not there.Hermione thought that she must have gone for the dinner.When she turned to apparated,someone caught here and pulled her into a big hug.

"Mrs Weasley!!"

After a few moments, Hermione was able to breath.She looked into her year filled eyes.

"How long since I have seen you Hermione dear!!"exclaimed Molly as she made Hermione sit.The whole house was unusually silent.

"Have they all gone to...."started Hermione.Molly nodded. Hermione felt so sad for Molly.She had lost two of her sons which was a huge loss for the whole weasley family.

"I heard from Ginny that you are working in the Society Witches Department?"

Hermione shifted on her seat.

"Yes...And now the have given me a lot of places everyday.And I will have to be put all the time"she said.

"That is a good thing dear...you will be able to take your mind off the distress for a while.Just like me and the others here too.

We try to keep ourselves busy so that our mind does not wander back to the past"

Hermione smiled.She loved Molly.How she wished if she were really one of the Weasleys...

They kept talking about what was happening in their lives as they barely had time to meet.

After a few minutes...

"Um...Mrs Weasley..Can I go to...Um..Ron's.."

"Sure dear.."said Molly kindly.

Hermione slowly made her way towards the top floor of the house.It had been a long time since se had come here.About a month or so.

Nothing had changed.If was as messy as ever.That was the charm if the burrow.

With a shivering and pale hand,she opened the only door on the top floor.A wave of sorrow hit her hard.The room was intact.l if Ron's things were in place.They were covered with a layer of dust but still each brought back the fond memories.She carefully made her way towards the bed in the centre.As her hand made it's way on his bed,she smiled.How many hours thY were sitting here and laughing and chatting....

The bedspread still had his smell with a tiny of spider webs.A smiles cracked on her dry lips.Ron would have freaked out if her knew that spiders were making his bed their home.

She went to his wardrobe and saw all his clothes,hidden money and chocolates,posters if quidditch teams and rock bands.

She gasped to see the time.She had to be there at the house to take care of Brandon even though he was asleep.

She went down and with a rush apparated to the house just in time to see Brandon coming Down with sleepy eyes.

At the same time,with a pop sound emerged his parents.Brandon hugged them.They smiled and played.A tiny pang if jealousy hit her.If she had been like that....

"Thanks a lot Ms Granger!We will surely call you if needed"she said with a kind smile.Hermione faked a smile.

She apparated to her apartment and without doing anything,she wept and wept all through the night..till she could no longer keep her heavy eyes open.

She let sleep engulf her...
