Kurumi then looked down at the back and sort of lifted it up off the ground, resting it on her lap as she unzipped it to show what had once been a broom. "My...broom, Professor," she said, her voice quivering a bit. "I was wondering if, perhaps, there was any chance of it being repaired." Not likely though. It would look better if the Whomping Willow had had a go at it. "It is really important to me...and was giving to me by Simon..." The part of the broom where he had signed it glistened in the light.
Yeah, sorry Simon. She had totally failed and broken her promises.
The sight of the destroyed broom made Vindictus gasp in horror. It was a definite goner.
"Kurumi," he began softly.
"I'm sorry - this broom is beyond repair."
But then she had to mention the sentimental aspect of the broom. Ack! Remember, girls have feelings and they cry at everything!
"All that can be done is to piece it back together and affix it to a special plaque so that you can hang it up on the wall."
Blunt, but it was to the point.
I could've told her that I'd burn the pieces for her, but that would result in tears. Lots and lots of tears.
