I don't want the world to see me
Happy Friday (or Saturday, lol)! Sorry for the long delay in updating, this has been a long, busy, and stressful week. I really wish that I didn't have to delay this update, but as you all know life does get in the way.
I hope you all enjoy this chapter, this will bring the story back into the present time after this!

And I don’t want the world to see me
It was three weeks after graduation. The war was now over and the Golden Trio, after being together for so long, was split up when Hermione left England to travel around the world. She had gone through the years after Sirius’s death as best as she could, yet her heart never healed. She tried so hard to move on, even trying to start a relationship with Ron, but her heart couldn’t be fooled. She just had to get away from it all; away from her past and to do some much needed soul searching.
The war had been another life altering experience for her. After seeing some of her fellow classmates, friends, and Order members die at the hands of dark magic, Hermione very much needed to step away from the magical world. With her passport in one hand and a single suitcase in the other, she left England to rediscover life.
‘Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
She travelled to France first, touring art museums and experiencing la vie bohème by living modestly in various hostels. From there she moved on to America, living in New York in a rundown apartment and relearning to interact in the fast paced muggle world. Though both these locations had broadened her horizons and changed the way she looked at life, nothing could come close to the wakeup call she got in India.
India was a location that a British person is fairly well versed with, having been a major muggle British colony until the middle of the 20th century. She thought it would have been an easy transition from her previous life in England, but she was way off.
When everything’s made to be broken
Everything seemed to have gone like any other tourist location, but that was until she stumbled upon a statue of the famous political figure Mahatma Gandhi. Being a man of simple needs, he strove to bring change to the country he loved and the world as a whole. Hermione had been sitting by a fountain when a glimmer of the bronze statue caught her eye. She walked up to statue of the elderly man and read the quote by him that was etched on a plaque
“Where there is love, there is life,” she read out loud, her fingers moving over the words as if to promote a deeper understanding.
I just want you to know who I am
“Where there is love, there is…LIFE!” she exclaimed, as if the last piece of the puzzle came into place. Over the past seven years of passing through the crowds of a different city or country trying to forget her past, she had forgotten the fact that love knows no boundaries, whether they be age or even through death. She could never outlive her past, nor can one outlive each other’s love.
Now it was Hermione’s time to act upon what she now realized she knew all along.
