Mirror of Erised

How long she stood there, she didn’t know. The reflections did not fade and She looked and looked until a distant noise brought her back to her senses. She couldn’t stay here, she had to find her way back to bed. She tore her eyes away from her mother’s face, whispered,

“I’ll come back,” and hurried from the room.

“You could have woken me up,” said Ron, crossly.

“You can come tonight, I’m going back, I want to show you the mirror.”

“I’d like to see your mum and dad,” Ron said eagerly.

“And I want to see all your family, all the Weasleys, you’ll be able to show
me your other brothers and everyone.”

“You can see them any old time,” said Ron. “Just come round my house
this summer. Anyway, maybe it only shows dead people. Shame about not
finding Flamel, though. Have some bacon or something, why aren’t you
eating anything?”

Dorea couldn’t eat. She had seen her parents and would be seeing them
again tonight. She had almost forgotten about Flamel. It didn’t seem very important anymore. Who cared what the three-headed dog was guarding? What did it matter if Snape stole it, really?

At night Dorea and Ron went to that room again but Ron didn't see Dorea's family or his family, he see himself as Quidditch captain and head boy . After that Ron and Dorea return to Gryffindor Tower. Ron doesn't feel good vibes from that mirror so Ron warn Dorea not go to that room again to see that mirror.  But At night Dorea again go to that room to see her parents.

“So — back again, Dorea?”

Dorea felt as though her insides had turned to ice. She looked behind him. Sitting on one of the desks by the wall was none other than Albus Dumbledore. Dorea must have walked straight past him, so desperate to get to the mirror she hadn’t noticed him.

“I — I didn’t see you, Alby.”

“Strange how nearsighted being invisible can make you,” said Dumbledore, and Dorea was relieved to see that he was smiling.

“So,” said Dumbledore, slipping off the desk to sit on the floor with Dorea,

“you, like hundreds before you, have discovered the delights of the Mirror of Erised.”

“I didn’t know it was called that, Alby”

“But I expect you’ve realized by now what it does?",

“It — well — it shows me my family —”

“And it showed your friend Ron himself as Head Boy.”

“How did you know — ?”

“I don’t need a cloak to become invisible,” said Dumbledore gently. “Now, can you think what the Mirror of Erised shows us all?”

Dorea shook her head.

“Let me explain. The happiest man on earth would be able to use the Mirror of Erised like a normal mirror, that is, he would look into it and see himself exactly as he is. Does that help?”

Dorea thought. Then she said slowly, “It shows us what we want . . . whatever we want . . .”

“Yes and no,” said Dumbledore quietly. “It shows us nothing more or less than the deepest, most desperate desire of our hearts. You, who have never known your family, see them standing around you. Ronald Weasley, who has always been overshadowed by his brothers, sees himself standing alone, the best of all of them. However, this mirror will give us neither knowledge or truth. Men have wasted away before it, entranced by what they have seen, or been driven mad, not knowing if what it shows is real or even possible.

"“The Mirror will be moved to a new home tomorrow, Dorea, and I ask you not to go looking for it again. If you ever do run across it, you will now be prepared. It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live, remember that. Now, why don’t you put that admirable Cloak back on and get off to bed?”

Dorea stood up.

“Alby — ? Can I ask you something?”

“Obviously, you’ve just done so,” Dumbledore smiled. “You may ask me one more thing, however.”

“What do you see when you look in the mirror?”

“I? I see myself holding a pair of thick, woolen socks.”

Dorea stared.

“One can never have enough socks,” said Dumbledore. “Another Christmas has come and gone and I didn’t get a single pair. People will insist on giving me books.”

"Ummm , I'm sorry" Dorea said in a low voice. " I shouldn't ask you this question it was to personal, sorry I just didn't control my curiosity. I swear on marlin I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. "

Dumbledore stared Dorea for a moment then smile gently.

" Don't worry, umm may when you will be little older I will tell you oneday what I see in this mirror. Now you're quite young to understand Dorea , what I see and why . "

"So I will wait to know then . " Dorea said with big grin .Dumbledore smile at her . " Now , good night Alby , it's not good for your health too stay up this late at this age. You know I already make plane for your 200 years birthday party. so take care and don't run out before you hit the 2 century " dorea said while giggling and then before he said something she run from the room. Dumbledore chuckled himself at Dorea's behavior.
