IT’S A NEGOTIATION WITH HER SWOLLEN BELLY ,     but she has been told there is little anything can do when matched against Lily Evan’s Potdar’s sheer determination. Perhaps breathing a bit more heavily than she would otherwise, a knee slides into place on either side of his hips, breakfast floating in just behind her.

21 SEPTEMBER 1991       

Dear Papa, 

How are you? How’s mamma? 

I miss you but don’t worry because I am having loads of fun. Thank you for the sugar quills and extra socks and the book on wizards chess. ( Ron says hi. He says he doesn’t think the book will help. Now I have to beat him. )

We had our first flying lesson yesterday. Some boy was bothering Neville and took something from him. I got it back but I had to fly when I was told not to. I wouldn’t have flown if he didn’t first and he took Neville’s rememberall so I had to get it back for him because I didn’t want it to break. I thought I was going to get into trouble because Professor McGonagall came out and got me. I was scared but she took me to the captain of the quidditch team instead! His name is Oliver Wood, I think you would like him. 

Gryffindor was down a seeker and both agreed that I had a talent for it, I’m on the quidditch team dad! Our first practice is coming up and I’m nervous but excited I’ll show them what you taught me. Do you think you and mamma could come to the matches? 

Now that I’m thinking about it I might not be able to beat Ron at chess after all, I should really focus on quidditch instead. He’s waiting for me to go to lunch so I should go.

I miss you. I’ll write soon. 

Love,  Hari

PS. I counted the steps from the crooked mirror on the fourth floor like you asked. It’s 28 for me I even stepped really wide.
