Petunia was scared. Harry stared up at her with a small smile and held the leaf out to her. All she could do was stare at the little 4 year old boy doing magic. The leaf was changing from red to yellow to green and then back to red again. She reached out her hand, shaking, and took the leaf from his small grasp. Petunia stared defiantly into the eyes of her sister and shredded the leaf in front of her.. Wait, him. Harry's emerald green eyes filled up with tears and ran off down the street. She didn't bother to stop him. Her jealousy still had gotten the better of her, even after all these years. She grasped at her neck and tugged the locket from beneath her shirt. When she opened it, her lip trembled and she stared at her sister. "I'm sorry," she whispered at the Lily who was holding a month old Harry, waving and moving around. She stared at her sister, the one who always seemed alive and swallowed the lump in her throat. When she could look no longer, she shut the locket and hid it beneath her blouse.
