The Light Of My Life

Part 20

Finally, they had their exams, which meant that very soon the school year would be over, and the time would come when everyone would return to their families. Lisa was a little worried about this, because she knew that the people she thought were her real parents weren't really there. Draco was also worried about coming back. He knew that when he returned home, his father would force him to serve the Black Lord again, and he would have no other choice for Aries to agree.

There was a day left before all the students returned home. After dinner, Dumbledore called Lisa and Draco into his office.

- Good evening, children!"say hello to the old man."

"Good evening, Professor."- they answered him

"Why did you call us, Professor?" Lisa asked .

I called you here to tell you that you won't be coming home.

"What?" How is that? Are we going to stay here? Draco asked, surprised

No, I will take you to a safe place away from any civilization, so that you will be safe.

- What?! Where?

"I can't tell you. You'll find out tomorrow.

But won't anyone feel like we're not getting on the train?

- Calm down. You will rise. You will go to London, and from there I will take you to your destination.

"What about our families?"

- Lisa! I'm afraid you'll have to do something very difficult, but we have no other choice. he told them with a slightly sad Dumbledore look, while Lisa and Draco looked at him worried, scared, and confused

"What is it?"

- Forgetful magic.

- What?! Draco exclaimed

When you arrive in London, you will have a little time to see them one last time and say goodbye to them, and then you will make them forget magic and erase yourself from their lives. It's like you never existed for them. This is only for your and their safety. If they don't remember you, no one will hurt them.

"This is absurd! He can't do it! They're her family! They raised her! He shouted at Draco .

Draco!"he was asked to break Dumbledore, but to no avail.

"No way!" Do you realize how hard this is going to be for Liz? You'll ruin it! Do you want him to lose control of his powers?! he continued to raise Draco's voice .

DRACO! He shouted at Liz and put a hand on his knee to tell him to stop.

"I'll do it."- Liz boldly declared

- But, Liz...! He began to speak to Draco.

Draco, if it's going to protect them, I have to do it."you told him calmly, Liz. Draco just stood there and stared in amazement.

Lisa, I know this is going to be difficult for you, but you're making the right decision. Dumbledore said

"I know, Professor."Yes," she said

I'm glad you understand the situation. He told her, and she just nodded her head

You can go home and pack your things."go on, Dumbledore .

Thank you, Professor. Good night. Lisa said, and Draco got up and left.

"Lizzie, are you okay?" Draco asked her sadly

- Yes! But please, let's not talk about it now. I'll be fine. She answered him, visibly sad, though he didn't want to show it.

When they got back to their room, Liz took a quick shower after her, and Draco and the two went to bed and snuggled up to the bed without saying anything. In due course, Lisa broke the silence.
