How do you measure our last year on earth?

He had been ignoring her. That was obvious. Every time she tried to send him an owl, there was no response. Whenever she dropped by his house, the door would open slightly so she could see half his face and then it would slam shut again. Other times only his wife would be home and while, she was caring and helpful, it still did not make up for his coldness.
Finally, Queety could not stand it anymore. She had been back for over a month and she had not shared more than two words with her best friend. She was still confused about what had happened for the time she was gone, just some fuzzy images of a man who looked awfully familiar. Most of the scars on her arms were fading and she had gotten a new wand to replace the one she had lost over the course of her lost time. There was still work to be done to try to get her to remember everything but that was a day to day process.
The only thing left was to clear up any misconceptions with Straw. She had accidently misinterpreted her few memories and that, along with the fact that she had not shown up to his wedding, caused a tension between the two of them, a tension that Queety was about to break today. She made plans to go to the one place he could not escape her.
She stepped into the Ministry of Magic, wearing her glasses and her hair charmed to be thick small, curls. Wearing clothes that she normally wouldn't, she hoped she could sneak in without anyone easily recognizing her. She introduced herself as a reporter and she wanted to speak with the aurors about a recent case they had covered. She was directed to the third level where she instantly saw the Auror department. Straw was there, the only person in the department at the time. Queety smiled softly and tapped the top of her head with her wand. Her hair immediately fell straight again, the way it normally was. She did not take off her glasses though since her vision had worsened since the accident. But at least she would be recognizable again.
Queety walked straight up to Straw and put her hands on her hips. "Long time, no see, Buckett," she began.[/color]
