George's Kindness

CHAPTER 35

The whole house woke up by Molly's shouting, so they came downstaors in pajamas and sleepy faces, to see what's happening.

They saw Molly yelling angrily at her son, who was leaning against the counter and paying no attention at all to the words his mother was saying to him.

"You've been out all night and you think I don't know? The clock showed that you were in the forest, what were you doing in the forest at that time?!" She screamed, the pain in her voice hurting her kids, especially Ron.

"I was with Oliver and Lee," He replied completely coldly, not looking into her eyes, but through the window.

"What if something happened to you? We all slept and you decided to sneak out and just go? Luckily I got up earlier and saw on the clock that you were in the forest otherwise I know you would be lying to me!" She shouted angrily again, her throat tightening.

"Why would I lie to you?" He ran his hand through his hair and crossed his arms.

"Because you always lie to me George, always, to your mother, do you ever think how I feel?" Molly tore herself in tears.

Arthur stood next to Molly and put his hands on her shoulders, looking at George with a disappointed look, "Do you have any mercy on how much you worried your mother and us now?"

Anna also looked at him disappointed, she didn't expect him to lie to her, and especially to worry his mother like this. Leilah leaned against the edge of the couch next to Harry and Hermione, and just watched the situation.

"I’m not a three-year-old to yell at me like that," When he looked at them, his eyes were completely red and half-closed.

"Well, a three-year-old would behave better than you, are you ashamed!?" Molly slapped her hand off the table, but George didn't flinch.

"Why are you eyes like that? Did you smoke?" Arthur stared into his eyes, shocked by George's face expression, completely looking as if he was not aware of himself.

"And you're ruining your health? I can't believe it, you've never disappointed me like this," Molly lowered her eyebrows, looking at a completely different person, instead of her son, this is not her George.

"What can happen to me? Why do you suddenly care what I do and where I am?" He gripped the counter tightly, feeling his legs get weaker.

"How can you say such words to your mother, I don't care about you? I raised you George!" Tears streamed down her cheek.

"Will you let me go to my room for once?" He said cheekily, and Molly swung her hand to hit him, but Sirius grabbed her hand in time and said, "Molly please calm down and let him go in the room, hitting won't change anything."

George lowered his head and strode past everyone, into the room, where he slammed the door.

Molly broke down inside, she knew George was going back to the old way, his bad habits and sneaking out of the house. Ron, Ginny and Fred approached her and hugged her tightly, saying wonderful words to her.

Sirius motioned for Anna to come, which she did, he told her quietly, "My dear, please check later what's wrong with him, I've never seen a Weasley disappoint Molly like this."

Anna nodded and looked at Molly, whose eyes were full of tears, it hurt her heart to see her in such a state, she knew that she was a very good mother and that she would do anything for her children, and others.

"Thank you so much honey, I'm really uncomfortable to interfere with other family stuff, and I know George and you are together, maybe he'll understand you," Sirius kissed her forehead and headed to the kitchen.
