Petunia Dursley looked at the green towel in her hand with a frown. The color green always evoked emotions in her. As hard as she tried not to, the color green always reminded her of Lily and Lily's eyes.
The worst part was seeing that green every time she looked at her nephew Harry. Petunia was grateful that Harry didn't look much like Lily as it would have reminded her of her sister even more. But yet, Harry's green eyes were undeniably Lily's. She avoided making eye contact with Harry as much as she could. Looking into those eyes only brought back bitter memories.
Thinking about Lily evoked mixed emotions of guilt, jealousy, contempt and affection in Petunia. One part of her was always green with envy over Lily and despised the very memory of her. Another softer part of her felt guilty over her sister's death and how they never truly made up. Deep down, muddled amidst her hatred, there was some love in her heart for Lily.
