Against the odds

Chapter 8

Chapter 8

Summer was awesome! (Any summer without the ferret is awesome)

I spent half of the vacations at the Burrow. Nanny Molly taught me to prepare pumpkin pastries, I swam in the lake with Lily, Albus and James. And I showed my grandpa how to use an iPad. He was fascinated!

Unfortunately, the fun didn't last long because Lily caught a flu and infected James and Albus. Poor aunt Ginny she spent a whole week surrounded by tissues and medicine.

Since uncle George was busy dealing with his POSSIBLE divorce, my dad spent almost all summer running Weasley wizard's wheezes. So, we couldn't play Quidditch. Hugo was a little disappointed but my mum always knows how to deal with disappointment. (Sugar quills are the key).

..............................................................................................................................................................

Today I get back to Hogwarts, I'm so excited!

When we arrived King's Cross, my dad almost crashed (he still has trouble parking).

I ran with Hugo to platform 9 ¾. Aunt Ginny was already there with my three cousins. "Where's uncle Harry?" Hugo asked

"He had a lot of work sweetie" Aunt Ginny answered

"Is everything ok?" My dad asked

"Yes, is just a problem in the Ministry of Magic. Last week the Auror department got insane" Aunt Ginny replied

"Who got insane, the Aurors or Harry?" My mother asked trying to hide a grin

"Harry is always insane, everything is fine in the Ministry of Magic! "my dad said

"Don't be silly Ronald" My mum snapped. "Nothing is fine in the Ministry since ..." but she stopped as soon as she realized I was standing next to her.

My parents and uncles are having secret conversations and hiding things about the ministry of magic since I arrived home. I know that something is happening and I will figure it out,

"Maybe Harry will need your help Ronnie" my aunt added

"Maybe sis, but no matter how much I care about Harry, I won't be an auror again and neither of you can change my mind" my dad replied while walking towards James and Albus.

After that suspicious conversation, I said goodbye family and I got on the train.

As soon as I got on the train I started looking for my friends, but for my bad luck I crash with somebody. I prayed it wasn't the trolley lady this time. (Nothing is worse than crashing with a poor old lady, oh wait there is something worse and it's call Malfoy)

"I'm Sorry Rose" The boy I crashed with said

"No problem, it was my fault" I responded

"Have you seen Albus" The boy asked. And immediately I recognized him as SCORPIUS MALFOY.

"No, I haven't seen him" I snapped

"What did you do in summer" Malfoy asked again

"Like if you care" I said

"I was trying to be polite" he grunted

"Maybe you should try to be more careful" I shouted while leaving

"And maybe you should start dealing with your hatred and anger issues" He screamed.

I really hate Malfoy, it's only 11:00 o'clock and he had already spoiled my first day in second year.
