Fancy seeing you here. Lost, or just slumming in?
smirks Lost and alone, I see. Quite fitting for someone like you.
What's the matter? Did I strike a nerve?
did I strike a nerve in you. 😏
narrows his eyes You think you're clever, don't you? Just remember, you're nothing more than a mudblood to me.
okay Draco.. but I’m pretty sure a mudblood made you who you are today, so how could you repay them..? 😏
pauses, his expression softening You don't understand... The things I've done, the person I used to be... I can't just forget about them.
yup.. you kinda need to because they’d probably get revenge on you.
Revenge? They won't touch me. I'm protected now. But... there is someone else I need to make amends with. Someone I wronged deeply.
what do you mean deeply..?
takes a deep breath Her name is Hermione Granger. She was my best friend, but I betrayed her. I want to find her and ask for forgiveness.
alright but she’s probably busy..
nods determinedly I know she's busy, but I need to do this. I owe it to her. And to myself.
starts walking towards the location he last remembered meeting Hermione I need to find her. It's time to set things right.
spots Hermione in the distance, his heart pounding There she is... I've missed her so much.
walks up to Hermione, his voice trembling slightly Hermione... I... I want to apologize. I know it's overdue, but I mean it. I was wrong...
I sit behind a tree watching carefully
takes a deep breath I was wrong to treat you the way I did. I was blinded by my own prejudices and fears.
looks into Hermione's eyes Please, tell me if you forgive me. I deserve it, even if I don't deserve your friendship back.
she’s like.. “fine.. I’ll forgive you..” then I come out
looks at MysticalWhale, a grateful smile on his face Thank you... for being there for me when I needed it most. I wouldn't have made it without you.
extends his hand towards MysticalWhale You've shown me that there's more to life than hate and prejudice. Will you join me on this new path?
pulls MysticalWhale into a warm embrace I promise you, from this day forward, I will dedicate my life to fighting against the darkness I once embraced.
breaks away from the embrace, a determined look on his face Now, let's get to work. There's much to be done to bring about change.
