"They're not coming back." The words Ron said, pierced Mei as if they were bullets, and it rang in her ears.
George didn't say anything! Nothing at all, about their escape from Hogwarts. She never thought he would leave, she knew about making a joke-shop, but the two leaving? She didn't know anything, and Mei thought George loved her. Once, Ron had said those words, she didn't want to hear, she ran to her room, locking herself from anyone, who wasn't named Hermione.
Mei didn't get why he wouldn't tell her. She would be okay if he left, but told her, instead of just leaving, with Ron telling her after. She also, didn't get, that the O.W.L were done, and this was the best time to be with George. What made things worst, Harry had gotten a dream, that haunted him.
"It's a trap, Harry!" Hermione declared, the morning he told everyone.
"I need to make sure!" He replied, "What do you think, Mei?" Harry had asked.
Mei was distracted writing a letter to George, which was her second one, but this one heading to Molly, his mother, "Yeah, I agree with- Should I write that?" Mei crossed out the sentence she had just made.
"Mei, they're not going to respond to you quickly." Ron told her, but she just glared at him.
"He said, he will always have an answer for me! So, if he loves me, then he will reply!" She retorted, as the owls came swooping down.
Ron smirked, "Let's go Harry, it seems she wants to be alone." Hermione told him, and the two boys followed her off outside,
Mei tied her note to the leg of an owl, and headed off to her room.

That night, the golden trio, with Luna, Ginny, and Neville, left, leaving Mei alone. She just sat in the common room crying, as she read the letter she had gotten. It was from Fred, not the person she was expecting, but still a answer, but one she didn't want. It said:
Dear Mei,
This is Fred,you know Fred Weasley, your boyfriend's brother? Well, I guess you already heard we have left Hogwarts, intending to make a joke-shop. George and I are very busy, and this is just the only free time I got, so I'm writing to you. George misses you, We will write back, soon.
From,
Fred
Mei cried, even harder, George seemed not to care. He had just let his brother write a letter to her, not himself. She wiped her eyes, which were already puffy, heading to the owlrey. A note, clutched in her hand. Once, she was there, she saw her owl, back already, coming from the Burrow.
She opened the note and it seemed Mrs. Weasley, was furious. However, there was no sign of him there at the burrow, which made her even more sad. Again, a tear dropped down her face, she quickly wiped it away with her robe sleeve, but someone had stopped her.
"It's okay to cry." Cedric declared, as she again tried to wipe her tears.
He took a step forward to her and hugged her gently, "I love you." There was no response from Mei.
He released her, looking at the increasing tears on her face, "Has George stolen your heart away from mine?" Mei looked away, but Cedric just kissed her, "Come back to me, he doesn't love you, like I do!"
"He will always have an answer for me! He will respond to my letters, with answers, that answer my questions! He will say he loves me and misses me, I know George, Cedric! He will respond." She yelled.
Cedric sighed, "I'm not going to be here next year, I can't protect you, but at least you know I will be here for you! George isn't, trust me Mei! If he doesn't respond to you, you know who to choose." Cedric kissed her on her cheek, whispering the three words, eight letter, sentence she hadn't heard in a long time.
