The Reaction to the Dursleys: Part 2

"Err… I'll call in sick…" said Vernon, waiting for an explosion.

"Uh." Petunia replied stiffly.

"What?" Vernon asked curiously.

"G-g-go pu-put Th-the… THING… in th-the kitchen…" said Petunia in a daze.

"Honey… we are in the kitchen, are you okay…?" he asked anxiously.

"JUST GET THAT UGLY LITTLE BRAT, OUT OF MY WAY!!!" she screamed back.

"Y-yeah okay…" Vernon said while running into the living room, looking about for a place to put poor un-wanted Harry. He then ran into the hall and noticed the cupboard under the stairs. Vernon slowly went into the kitchen to comfort Petunia sitting curled up next to the fridge, saying; "Stupid…Freak…In my house?!?!"

"Honey… we can pretend he has nothing to do with those 'scum-bags' we could clear out room in the cupboard, feed him three times a day, it won't be that bad… He will then be scared of us, he won't give us sarcasm, or back-talk when he's older! It'll be easy!" Vernon convinced hopefully. The second Petunia gave Vernon 'the look' he was sure he was unsuccessful.

"I'm not happy about this, I will always hate him! And if you dare treat him any where near as good as my little Dudey-Kins… I swear I'll be so mad!" she said through a thumping head-ache. "But we'll try… if he causes any trouble at all, he is going straight to an orphanage!" she confirmed

"I'm glad, I don't mind him going to an orphanage, I'll hate him too, he is so far the worst thing that has happened to me!" said Vernon.

An hour later, when Petunia started to calm down, Vernon went upstairs to see if Dudley was awake yet. Vernon and Petunia didn't mind if he wasn't awake, they would in fact be happy about this because he very badly needed his beauty-sleep. While he was up in Dudley's room, he went into his wardrobe to fetch a small outfit for Harry. It had to be small because of the size of Harry. Harry had jet black hair and deep green eyes. The strangest thing about his appearance was a scar on his forehead. It was the shape of a lightning bolt.

Vernon got an outfit for Harry and went downstairs to check on Harry. And he couldn't be wrapped in cloth for the rest of his life. So like he had planned, Vernon went into the cupboard to dress Harry. As he put on Harry's clothes he noticed that Harry was smaller than he had thought he was. There was dust and spiders, and lots of shoes, a vacuum cleaner, and things Vernon didn't know, and didn't want to know what it was. So into the kitchen he went to get a cloth and some cleaning spray. As he was cleaning he noticed a broken desk and a box of rusty nails. It gave him an idea. He had finished cleaning, so he decided to go into the garage to take the desk apart, to make something. He started making a small bed. If it was normal sized he would fall out in the middle of the night and wake Petunia, Vernon and precious little Dudley. If it was too small when he is older it will break, and wake Petunia, Vernon, and precious Dudley up. He had now finished and placed it in the cupboard under the stairs. He and Petunia both knew they would dread the next years with Harry………
