Draco pulled his head out of the pensive. His face wet with the water and his newly set, warm tears. This year wasn't any different, same old like the past 15 years. Every year on his birthday, he would revisit her...her memories. The on she handed the day she...

"Tell mommy, I'm coming Scorpius. I'll be done." Draco leaned back in his chair. The 7 year old boy walked down the stairs and to the kitchen.

The older male closed his eyes, more tears running down his face. He looked down to his wrist at the bracelet that was given to him. Draco stood up and walked to the window. It was pouring rain and today seemed more of a gloomy day.

Tapping came from the window next to him and it was his owl, Hudson. He opened the window and the owl flew to his shoulder. Draco untied the small note tied to his leg and Hudson flew into his cubby.

He unwrapped the note and noticed it was from a fellow classmate, he wrote to a few days ago.

Hello Draco,

This is a bit sudden but I'm grateful you asked. It sure has been a while. Would you like to meet on the 7th of August. It would only be right. We could visit her also. Tell me if this is too sudden or too late.

The kids say hello. Tell me if there's anything you need. Looks a bit gloomy out. Stay indoors and safe.

P.s. I'm sending you this package with Hudson. She would want you to have it.

Sincerely,
Harry James Potter

Draco furrowed his eyebrows. Placing the note on his desk, he picked up the package he managed to miss. It was fairly familiar. He ripped the packaging and realized it was her notebook. It has been a while since he found it. He licked his lips and bit it, frowning.

He slowly flipped to the first page.

Dear Diary,

It's uh- my first time writing in here. Today is May 31, 1996. Sirius got me this book because he thought it would be a great way to express my feelings. He's not wrong. I feel dumb writing in a journal as if you'll respond to me, but hey. I'm Ryera Brooks. I'm 15, at the moment.

My birthday is on August 7. A few months still. Yeah...well, Sirius told me to write what happened in my day. Um well, I went out with Harry and Sirius today. We didn't do much because Harry got sick and puked all over Sirius. It was honestly priceless. I couldn't stop laughing the whole way.

Sirius was beyond furious with Harry but laughed it off when I told him to. Harry gave me a big hug for that. Harry and I returned to Hogwarts after that and had a big lunch with Hermione and Ron. We then went to the room of requirement to practice our spells. Harry was a great teacher.

I forgot to mention, there's this wanker professor at Hogwarts. Umbridge. She's crazy honestly. Hermione said she'd strangle her, if she got the chance.

After all, today was an enjoyable day. Well I've got to go now. I'll talk to you soon, Diary. Bye bye.

Draco scoffed at her childishness. "She's seriously talking to a book. Brat." He softly smiled when he thought about her relationship with his uncle. Something he regrets never getting a chance to do so.

Dear Diary,

It's good to talk to you again. Sorry for not writing for a while. Exams are crazy at this time. Hermione is torturing the three of us. She's quizzing us over and over again. I don't understand why she's asking me. I'm just as smart as her. I can't say the same for Harry and Ron. They're quite dumb- don't tell them I said that. I love them both. Haha
