Heartbeat

Chapter 29

"Are you ready to go?" I asked Bryan.

"In a minute" Bryan replied.

I smoothed my robe once more to free it from any wrinkles, Today was the day we Graduate from Coulubrin University and it shined on us like the warm light of summer's dream. Looking in the mirror I saw myself in black robe I smiled from ear to ear. It was hard to believe today was the day where wheels will start turning back, I graduated and next thing I know I would be leaving for London in two days. The smile on my face slowly started to disappear. It went too fast, I din't had enough time here, I wanted to live a lit more. But how long, will I run from home? From people I love? From people I envy. 

"Let's go." Bryan poked my shoulder. And I nodded. 

University was buzzing with students every where, families, friends. It had enough crowd to lose the person next to you unless you hold there hands. I saw Bryan earlier but soon lost him in sea of people, he was no use anyway, we had different sitting arrangement according to our subjects. His row of line was ahead of me I could see his head on my right, seeing his back of the head soothed my nerves. 

The ceremony begin and I started to doze off, I can't take these long boring speeches unless its Dumbledore speaking at the other end, I started clapping when I heard other students giving a round of applause to the some other student speech. I sat straight in my sit and waited for the roll call. 

After an hour we received our degree's and we all were gathered for the Graduate photo of the year. One more hour then you are free to party as much as you want Ginny, patience Ginny patience. I smiled with all my heart and on the count of three the most memorable photo was clicked. 

I saw Professor Gambon standing at the end of the dice where he was talking with set of students he looked at me and signaled me to come over. I closed my eyes and walked towards him. 

"Haven't seen you in a while Miss Weasley." Prof Gambon said.

"Been busy with the exams and stuff Professor, how are you?" I politely answered him.

"I see, I am doing fine, Congratulation on your success dear." He smiled at me.

"Thank you, Professor." I returned his smile.

"Where to now? heading home?" He asked.

"Yes, back to London." I replied.

"Soon enough? Don't you wanna work here on your internship?" He raised his eyebrow.

Internship.? What internship is he talking about? I never applied anywhere.

"I'm sorry professor, I haven't applied anywhere" I cleared his questions.

"Are you certain?" He gave me half smile.

"I am sure of it." I nodded my head.

"Look in your mail box, when you arrive home. There is an opportunity waiting for you." He winked at me.

My mouth parted and I gaped at his words. I heard about this rumour when I was a newbie in university that professor Gambon select an intern every year by there end of the course. I didn't believed it as there were no prove to state the rumor earlier.

When he said about the internship I was baffled, confused, overwhelmed, overjoyed! I stared at him for a few minutes.

"close your mouth Miss Weasley, this isn't a surprise for me, nor should be for you." He chuckled at me.

"I- I.... I don't know." I was dumbfounded unable to express the emotions inside.

"No need to hurry, I shall wait for it. You all deserves a break from the schedule. God good, I need it too" he barked at his own joke. I slightly smiled.
