She has gone. No matter how many he repeats that phrase in my mind,he felt a lump in the throat.
Arthur can’t blame her for doing that. If anyone had done that to Ginny,he would have murdered that bastard. Damn that moonshine for making a monster out of him.
But then he realised that he can’t blame the alcohol for his actions. Arthur always avoided alcohol as he can’t hold himself after 2 swigs. He still had a splitting headache from the moonshine. But the pain of Hermione leaving him hurted him more.
He carefully counted the money she had left. It was $8637 and few cents. He had enough money to fend for himself. Also he had learnt to blend in among muggles and also can get a low paying job.
He wanted to go and search but he also had feeble hopes that she would come back. She didn't even take her wand with her. Had she given up on the wizarding community ? He felt angry at the fact that it was his fault for that.
It was more than 3 pm now and Arthur’s headache was even aggravated by dehydration and hunger. So he finally left the trailer and went to a convenience store and bought packets of ramen noodles and beef jerkys.He had no mood to cook. While coming back,he saw a liquor store, his mind told him not to..
Hours later, Drunk Arthur was shouting in his trailer, crying like a baby. But the trailer parks were always animated with loud music, quarrelling and kids roaming around that noone paid attention to him.
The next day ,he went straight to the liquor shop and bought another big bottle of moonshine and drank his way through. His body wasn't cooperating as it had only beef jerkys in them and he threw up everything and then fell down in the bathroom unconscious for several hours.
The third day,he realised that he can’t devolve like this. He went to the bar she worked and asked about her whereabouts. They told him that she had quit her job more than 2 months ago.
He finally took courage to go to the gentleman club. To his surprise, there were no menacing looking guards standing outside the door . When he went , it was literally empty with some staff members cleaning the place .
Then a giant came up to him and asked " What do you want ?"
Arthur said " I want to see Heather ".
"Sorry but performers start only at 10 pm .This is the cleaning time . so I ask you to leave ".
Arthur left a lump in his throat even though he didn't threaten him . He wanted to leave as soon as possible but he wanted answers.
" I need to speak to .. someone .... It's very important... "
" I'm sorry but it's my responsibility to protect our performers from over enthusiastic fans like you . So leave before I do something ".
" BUT SHE IS MISSING FROM HOME FOR 3 DAYS ".
his loud voice made everyone startled and they looked at him in horror.
A man suddenly appeared. He looked to be in mid 40s, his hair was coloured red, he wore a flamboyant purple tuxedo.He had around 3 huge rings in his fingers .
"Jeff, I'll handle this " he said and the giant left him. He beckoned Arthur and they headed to his private office. It was adorned with pics of naked women , most probably,his employees .He gave Arthur a chair to sit .
"So you must be Heather's father , the professor who...." He suddenly remembered he was about to tell and stopped.
"Yes ," said Arthur .
"Well ,Heather said that she didn't want her father to know as it would break his heart. Honestly , we are also looking for her as she hasn't come to work for 2 days . But we didn't think anything amiss as its common for our performers to quit abruptly. When did you last see her ?"
Arthur's heart sank . He was hoping that she just left the house and he could meet her again but the fact that she quit means she might have left the place altogether.
" I discovered what she was really doing " he began slowly " in a moment of anger , I did... " He stopped and realised he need to control himself " I said things which hurt her and she just left home before I woke up in the morning."
"Well, I can tell my contacts to look for her but I'm sorry to tell in front of a father but your daughter was one of the best performers we have had in a long time. Our attendance increased by 2 times since the word was spread about her . However, we are a small town with limited earnings. There could be a possibility that someone sweet talked her into going to Las Vegas or Miami . Their performers can earn 10 times what they can earn here . And your daughter can easily make through the top cut there ".
Arthur felt as if his heart was pierced every time he heard the word " daughter" because of the thing he did .
He knew for sure that Hermione would have crossed half way across earth if she could and it was only fair for her to stay away from him .
After voldemort taking over the ministry and banning magic , he had lost all hopes and was dreading each day . The time with Hermione gave him a chance to be himself and away from the madness although he thought about his family at times .
He reached his trailer and cooked ramen noodles. He was determined not to have any more alcohol. It had started to rain heavily .
He wrote an apology letter to Hermione and then took his wand . He wasn't sure if he will be surrounded by snatchers when he uses the spell as they are no longer in Britain but he and Hermione never took the chance all these months .
He was worried if his family had been arrested and they moved to the dark side to protect them but he would rather accept punishment as a penance for his momentary madness.
Or should he start killing every snatcher who descends and give a fight ? Wouldn't that make the muggles in the park as collateral damage .
He was struck in his thoughts until he heard a knock on his door . He thought he was imagining it or it must some object hitting the door.
But he heard it again . With the wand in his hand , he slowly opened the door.
There , she was standing in the rain totally drenched to the skin.
