A/N: The next of my Character Illuminations series.

Disclaimer: I don't own HP.

I really don't hate my sister. Most people might think that. That is, if they even knew I had a sister. I was just terribly jealous when she got a letter from Hogwarts, and I ruined our relationship. Now I've lost her forever.

All I have left of her is Harry, but I can't stand to look at him because I see those eyes. Her eyes.

But I love him as I loved her, so I had to take him in. Vernon suggested that we take him to an orphanage, but I couldn't bear it more than the thought of doing the same to my Dudley.

He reminded me so much of Lily, especially the magic. He would do things that normal children shouldn't be able to do, just like she had so many years ago. But that magical part of him, it was dangerous. It tied him to that menace that killed Lily. The wizards don't even speak his name. I couldn't let Harry associate with the magic world if he would end up like Lily. If that meant treating him as I have, then so be it. Some part of me knew it wouldn't work, though. He would still go to her special school and meet other children like him and learn about the magic.

Before we left for good, I pulled Harry aside. "Harry, beat him. Beat him for your mother, who didn't deserve what happened to her." A moment passed in which Harry just looked at me. "Right, then. We're off. Goodbye, Harry." I said, looking into those green orbs I knew so well for the last time. Then we left.

I'm not sure exactly what happened to him, but he must have fared well for I am sure that monster would have wreaked havoc on the world had Harry not stopped him.

But now I can go on without the daily reminder of my mistakes and the absence of Lily.

I never really hated my sister.
