Buttons
The other mother is mean and nasty, she cheats, lies, and steals, but how did those children really die? And what does she really want? The answer comes when the Dursley family, and their nephew move into Coralline's old flat. There are two children, one starved of affection, and one little spoiled butterball. Remember what the cat had said? "She want's something to love⦠or she would love something to eat" What if it's both?
Sorry for forgetting but Harry is six right now )
Harry ran through the new house away from his cousin. He had been out of order all day. there was something about this house and the doll Dudley had found. It was creepy.
"I'll get you Freak! you won't get away!" Dudley shouted.
Harry ran into a small door in the wall, fiddled with it, and charged through. It slammed behind him.
Harry then found himself inside a small tunnel that glowed different colors. At the end of the tunnel was another door just like the first. He opened it...and found himself back in the room he had just run through to escape. Except. this wasn't that room. That stupid gloomy painting of a boy with a poker face to rival a security guard had changed. the painting was of the same boy, but the boy was standing in a gleefull posture and eating ice cream with a joyful expression. the furniture was all different colors and patterns. the door on the other wall wasn't open and Dudley wasn't chasing him.
"Hello Harry"
Harry whirled around to find himself face-to-face with a beautiful woman with red hair and a face shape like his. she could have been his mother but there was something distinctly fake about her. Oh, yeah, she also had green button eyes the same color as his own.
"I'm sorry if I startled you..." she said, "Are you okay?"
"Mom?" Harry barely dared to ask.
"No dear, I'm your other mother" the woman said with a smile. "your better mother, for when your real one is lost or left, or worse doesn't treat you right."
"Really?" Harry said.
"Yes really, Lets have dinner shall we before it gets cold?"
Harry continued to visit the other mother during the day, while he was unaware that Dudley visited her at night. One day Dudley wanted something from his parents they would not give him and griped about his "Other mother would have given it to him" It was then Harry was happy because everything his "Other Mother" had said turned out to be true. Everyone Did have another mother! After three weeks of dissapearing to the other mother's place she decided to make him an offer with only one string attached...
