13- Hermione
I got a letter from Harry the other day.

I was happy then, more than I ever was, that Harry was raised in the muggle world and knew how to mail a letter. I don’t think that the other members of my building would have taken too kindly to an owl flying in and out of my window.

He said that Lillianna misses Danica.

It broke my heart to hear that, because Danica misses Lillianna too.

She would never tell me that but I can read her. Did you know that? Did you know that a mother can usually tell when her child is sad or hurting even if they don’t tell them?

Of course you don’t.

I feel horrible for taking Danica away from all she has ever known. Her friends and the only family she has ever known.

That’s right. To her Harry and Ron and Ginny and Luna and the rest of the Weasley clan were family.

My own parents died, as you know.

Do you remember?

How could you forget that your own father killed my parents?

I could never forget and I could never forget that you didn’t even seem to care about how much it hurt me. How it ripped me apart inside and how I cried every waking moment.

No, you didn’t care.

You told me to grow up, move on and stop being a baby.

Yes, I feel horrible for pulling Danica away from everyone she has ever known.

But I had to.

I had to get away from where you were and be free of your stares, your touch, your mind.

Harry and Ron still don’t know that your Danica’s father.

And I know that if you found that out you would think them fools.

But in truth, I lied to them.

And that eats me away inside.

I told them that I had stopped seeing you even before I got pregnant. I told them that I hated you and realized how foolish I was being and how sorry I was for betraying them, and they bought that easy enough, happy to have me back with them and happy that I was away from your bad influence, but when they asked, once, about Danica’s father I told them I never wanted to talk about him because he meant nothing to me and they dropped it.

Do you see what you’ve done to me?

You’ve made me a liar and I hate you for it

Inside the note Harry put a clipping from the Daily Prophet with your picture.

You and Pansy.

The headline read: Malfoy and Parkinson family plan extravagant wedding.

Pansy had on a sickening smile and you were smiling as well.

I hoped you choked to death. I hoped that all you did was fall apart because if this was what you wanted to do with your life why would you deserve happiness? Why should you be allowed to be happy when I was left here in misery watching the man I loved, the father of my child, marry the one girl I hated the most in the world? I shouldn't have to. In truth it would be way too cruel.
