Harry's POV
My hands shook as I held the letter, the only mail i'd ever received before were report cards from school. The letter was crinkly and yellowed with old age.
I look up at the house, I knew I'd get killed by uncle Vernon if I read it without permission, but if I showed him the letter I knew he wouldn't let me read it, I slyly slipped the letter under my old baggy hand me down jacket. I walked to the house trying to contain my excitement, a letter! For me! I thought as I happily walked, trying to look normal. I stared the kitchen door, willing myself to open it, but I just couldn't, I couldn't fathom the thought of doing this everyday of every year until I was old enough, and even then I don't think Petunia and Vernon wouldn't pay for my college. This thought struck my suddenly, I wasn't athletic enough to earn a sports scholarship, and I couldn't really understand math very well. actually my bet class was chemistry for some weird reason, I liked mixing all the stuff together. Dread filled me at the thought of being stuck in this house like limbo for my life. "There's still hope" I mimed to myself half-hearted lay and reached to open the kitchen door.
