31 July 1991, was a day filled with laughter in a house in a housing estate called Private Drive. It was a special day, as the family's youngest son was celebrating his 11th birthday.
"HARRY!!! HURRY UP AND GET DOWN!!! THIS CAKE WON'T EAT ITSELF!" A tall and thin but elegant woman shouted at the bottom of the stairs, wearing a simple pale pink dress with a chrysanthemum flower patterned apron
"YES MUM!!! I'M COMING!!!" The child who was called opened the door and came down the stairs with excitement
"Gosh Son, calm down. Don't run like that!" The big man in the living room shook his head at his youngest son's behaviour.
"Ehehe sorry Dad" The boy approached the man he called Dad and hugged him from behind "Morning Dad"
"Morning Son, and happy birthday to my overly naughty son!" The man rubbed his son's hair gently and lovingly
"Thank you dad"
"Heyo My Little brother, look who's grown up" An older boy grabbed Harry and pinned his neck in his arms and landed a kiss on the head which amused Harry and the boy laughed in satisfaction.
"STOP DUDLEY!!! THAT'S DISGUSTING!!!" The boy named Dudley just laughed at his brother's adorable reaction "And stop calling me that! You were only born a few months after me!"
"Stop bothering your brother Dudley, and come quickly. Vernon, can you please organise your children. Oh dear, it's still early!" A woman called Mum stared in disgust at her two children who fought almost every day, yes 'almost' because the word almost would only be stopped if there were only guests or formal events.
Without hesitation, Vernon lifted the bodies of his two children who were now rebelling in surrender as Vernon led them to the dining room
"Here you go Petunia, the two brats who are unfortunately handsome have arrived" Vernon sat them both on the dining chairs.
Petunia had brought a homemade birthday cake that was green, Harry's favourite colour. Dudley liked blue, which was why his birthday cake a month ago was blue.
"Now make a wish and blow out the candles!" Petunia lit a candle with the number 11 accompanied by a birthday song and applause from Vernon and Dudley.
Fuhhh
Harry blew out his birthday candles and was rewarded with a standing ovation from all three of his loved ones.
"Happy birthday Harry!"
Harry smiled genuinely and was happy with his life now, yes his life now. Why? Because he didn't expect the 3 crazy people who labelled themselves family in the past to be 180° in Harry's current life. Ah calm down, Harry is not a time traveller or comes from another dimension and time. It's just that little Harry has a privilege that only a few people know about this.
"Hey bro, you're really popular at school. You get so many presents" Dudley pointed with his chin towards the pile of presents in the living room.
"Oh come on, you even have a mountain of presents for your birthday Dudley the Casanova!" Harry glared at Dudley who was now bright red, yes Harry was quite surprised when he saw Dudley's growth which was far from Harry's imagination. Dudley had a tall stature, well-built and slightly athletic, fair skinned with slightly red cheeks that remained chubby successfully made Harry sweat drop seeing him.
And comparing it to his slender body, shor- okay not too tall, slim waist, chubby cheeks and round face. Which if only Harry had long hair or wig, surely people would think he was a girl. Oh dear Harry was jealous of Dudley.
After breakfast Harry and Dudley sat opening Harry's presents on Dudley's favourite dark blue rug which sometimes earned Harry a small sneer as 'Blue Maniac' and a reply of 'Please look green sir' while Petunia and Vernon sat on the sofa with the television on occasionally looking at their busy children.
"Oh Wow, look at this Harry! Dave will be jealous if he sees you have this," said Dudley as he held up a new remote control car that Harry was actually not interested in and neither was Dudley. He just liked it when he made his neighbour Dave who was too proud and ignorant annoyed and envious of them.
"Of course, he ends up whining like a baby who hasn't had milk for a week!" Harry and Dudley laughed at the thought, of course it was just a simile from Harry's absurd mind. How could a baby who hadn't had milk for a week have such a squeaky voice. Petunia and Vernon who heard their conversation could only shake their heads, resigned to the pranks of their two children.
"Woah, Mum Dad look who sent this present. Oh man, I haven't even started school yet" Harry handed a gift wrapped in green wrapping paper to Petunia and Vernon.
From. S. Prince
To. Hadrian.P"Oh, I haven't seen him in a while. The last time was when he invited us to his wedding to Isabella in Rome 3 years ago, and after that he got busy again ckckck I don't even know if he has children or not" Petunia shook her head when she saw the name of the sender of the gift.
"Try opening it, I'm sure again he'll send something 'intellectual' Harry" Vernon rolled his eyes as he recalled how upset he was when Prince sent a thick book with hundreds of thousands of pages that certainly wasn't for 10 year olds and the content certainly wasn't for children either
Petunia chuckled and opened Harry's gift at the attention of Dudley and Harry of course "Eh?" Petunia pulled out a green knitted sweater and matching scarf "Oh my, she really wants to make Harry into a snake" Petunia shook her head and pulled out a small box inside and something small flew out "Snicth!" Dudley and Harry chased the Snicth all over the house merrily until the ringing of the bell distracted Harry.
"I'll do it!" Harry walked up to the door of the house and found two letters in the mail slot, Harry picked up the letters and saw the familiar logo. But before that he looked out of the house to see who the sender was and only found a brown Owl sitting on the fence.
"Mum Dad! The letter from Hogwarts has arrived!" Harry ran to Petunia and Vernon and handed it to them.
There were two letters with two recipients
From. Hogwarts Magical School
To. Harry PotterFrom. Hogwarts Magical School
To. Dudley Dursley"Oh are we going to Diagon alley tomorrow?" Dudley asked hopefully, Dudley really liked Diagon alley of course because the food there was unique and of course delicious. Harry suspected that Dudley had taken a potion so he couldn't get fat.
"Yeah sure, get ready tomorrow we're leaving for London. And promise me that you won't go near that manipulative old goat. Don't fall for the old man's wiles and nonsense. Do you understand?" Asked Vernon firmly
"YES DAD!" replied Harry and Dudley in unison while their right hands saluted Vernon, Petunia who looked on again shook her head and smiled a little sadly. She remembered her past with her brother, which was not good. Thankfully she had made up with him before he left, at least the only thing she had left of him was now with her. Harry, Lily's sweet son. Lily's treasure, which is now his. Just as precious as Dudley.
