Harry Potter: "It won't be long, and you'll be going too."

Lily Potter: "Two years. I want to go now!"

How do I start? No. Dear Kitty. Not that either. Dear Luna? Let me see. Well my middle name- 'Luna'- means 'moon', named after my parents' friend Luna Scamander. And my friend Teddy often talks about the moon…Dad says when he was my age he liked looking at the moon through his window because it made him feel better when he was upset and alone. Basically the moon seems to be important in my life so it just makes sense to start like that.

Okay. I'll start again.

Dear Moon,

It's awful! James and Albus have gone off to Hogwarts and left me! It's not fair! Why do I have to wait two more years? I want to go too! I cried when the train left and as the smoke filled the whole of the platform because I was going to miss them and because I wanted to be on that train, leaving to the best place ever.

Dad hugged me and said he'd buy me a present: This diary. He said the best things to do to get rid of sadness were to either speak to someone or write it all down. He figured getting me this diary was a good option and I agreed. And now that I won't have anyone to tease me at home (sniff…) I would have more time for writing. And he said that it would help me to write better and become intelligent like mum, Aunt Hermione and my Grandma: grandmother Lily who I'm named after. But what do you write in a diary? I've never owned one before…

Secrets? Spells? Worries? Deepest thoughts? I guess all of them mixed. And I'll write as often as possible to remember everything I do and I'll tell my children my adventures, just like Mum and Dad.

Oh no! I've been trying to forget about Hogwarts all day but it came again! :'( Why can't they have a primary school too? It's sooooooooo not fair! And Hugo thinks so too. He says he'd love to try transfigurations to play tricks on Rose but I know Rose is way too intelligent to fall for that sort of thing! I hope he doesn't find out I thought that about him. He'd think I'm saying he's stupid. Today we had a long chat about which houses we would be in and we both agreed on being in Gryffindor because we're so really closely related!

But I did see Scorpius Malfoy with his father. Mr. Malfoy only just looked at Dad for a few seconds then turned away. Dad and Mr. Malfoy were big enemies when they were in school but I don't think they still are. Dad had said something about having made up with him, but I'm not too sure about them. They're family is full of bad people, James says. Scorpius is in the same class as Albus, I think. Yes. He is. It's also his first year. Hugo says he's sure Scorpius'll end up in Slitherin just like his dad, and granddad…

Well, Mum is calling me for dinner. I'm off. I'll write again before going to bed.

Now what do I write to end? My name?

Lily Luna Potter No, that's too long. Or…I know!

Dear Moon,

I'm back! We had a delicious dinner…As usual! Mum's cooking is the absolute best! She said it was something secret Grandma cooked to make some of my uncles to eat their veggies. And it worked! Anyway, Dad was away all day. He went back to London after dropping us home early in the afternoon.

He told me where he went! Him and my Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermione went to a place that was important for them many years ago. He said it was called…I think 'Grim Old Place'? They said the last time they went there was about twenty years ago. Before The Battle. And Hugo was over for dinner, his parents came to pick him up just a minute ago. We both didn't want to talk about H******s because we knew we wouldn't want to sleep tonight!

But dinner was too quiet. The house feels so weird after such a loud summer with my brothers and cousins all over the house, excited about September. Mum says I should spend some time with Grandma because when Uncle Ron had to go for his first year, she was all alone but her mum kept her so busy that she forgot about H******s. But Uncle Ron told me that when they go back for holidays, she would always talk about Dad. That story always makes me laugh!

But now I'm yawning. Time for bed.

I know my dreams will be full of black robes, wands, red, yellow, blue, green patterns…

Goodnight.

L.L.P

1/9/2017—later that evening.

Dear Moon,

I am getting used to writing in a diary now. And after a week of writing everyday, I think I really like it! Everyone has gone back to their usual lives. Dad went to work, he says it's not the same ever since Uncle Ron left. Mum has decided to work from home because I'm all alone now even though I keep telling her it's fine. I always tell her that I'd love to stay with Grandma (and I know Grandma would also LOVE to have me with her everyday) but Mum keeps saying she's old and she needs to rest.

"You'll go tomorrow." That's what Mum always says. I absolutely adore Grandma! She the best woman I know (after Mum of course)! Sometimes she gives me chores but then we get to cook cakes and eat and drink tea and she would tell me stories about my Mum and my uncles. She has a day for each of my uncles and my mum: Monday is for Uncle Bill, Tuesday is for Uncle Charlie, Wednesday is for Uncle Percy (she's usually not in the mood on Wednesdays…), Thursday is for my uncles Fred and George (she often weeps on Thursdays because of uncle Fred D: ), Fridays are for uncle Ron and Saturdays are for Mum.

She would sometimes say a few things about Dad and Aunt Hermione on Sundays, when the two of us were left alone.

I find the best days are Thursdays though she gets sad, but hearing my uncles' stories of twin mischief is really funny. When me and Hugo visit her, we have so much fun listening to those funny stories and she tells us never to do anything like that to our parents. She would always add: "You remind me so much of my little Ginny and Ronald…how I miss them." I would always get sad because she seems so upset that her children have grown up and left her but she always says she's proud of them…

But today I didn't get to see grandma. I was at home with Mum who was reading Quidditch Throughout The Ages. I found nothing fun in all that reading and highlighting but I did start writing. I wrote a letter to Albus to know if he was okay. I knew he would've been surprised if he saw that I was becoming a better writer and I even told him that I was dreaming of becoming a writer for the Daily Prophet just like my uncle Percy and Mr. Lovegood—the dad of my parents' friend who I'm named after.

I told him how I wished I could also be at Hogwarts with him and in Gryffindor too. I asked him if it was just like how everyone describes it and if he'd made new friends. I asked him which classes he liked and if he saw Rose and James often…

At the end, I told him I missed him and James and Rose and Fred and Roxanne and that he really had to answer because I had to know how he was. All I can do is wait for Xedo- our owl- to get the letter to him.

I can't wait to learn real magic. All I knew was what I and Hugo had secretly learned in advance with our parents' wands. I know it's not right. I hope no one find out though! We only want to learn ahead before going to Hogwarts in two years…

I don't really have much to write today. It's been really boring especially because I didn't even get to play with Hugo. If Dad comes back and brings me something good, I'll write later. If not, then it's goodnight.

Bye :)

9/9/2017

Dear Moon,

I'm up bright and early this morning!

Yesterday dad told me something. I don't know if it's great or if it's bad but I think it's a bit of both. He said he has found a school for younger witches and wizards in France. I don't speak French but I think Victoire could teach me, that's not a problem. The problem is that it's far and I'll miss my family sooooo much and also they say if you go through the primary school years, you also have to do the secondary school too. That would mean no Hogwarts! Why do things have to be so unfair? I wish I could go to school but then I won't be allowed to go to Hogwarts… :'''''(

I didn't write anything about it last night because I was really tired from a boring day and by the news I got. I kept asking dad how come they didn't make it a school for younger ones as well. Mum answered and said that I was too young to start learning magic- that eleven was the right age. Dad whispered in my ear and told me you're never too young to learn magic. I smiled but I was still a bit sad.

I asked him why he couldn't make it for younger ones too since he is the hero of all wizards. He only said:

"Come on, my sweet little Lily, off to bed. All the lilies are fast asleep."

I'm still waiting for Albus to answer me. I really want to know what he's been up to. I guess it's going to take about two more weeks for Xedo to drop his letter on my bed so all I can do is wait.

Oh! There is good news! I'm already awake because dad says he'll drop me off at Uncle George's and Uncle Ron's shop! I hope Hugo will be there so we can try out all the new tricks and treats my uncles have come up with together. I heard they have made Hamburger Horcruxes! They come with a special surprise gifts: a ring you can eat that makes you see everyone in purple, a secret diary that when you write in it, the words disappear when you say a spell. I think it was "conceal my words" and to make them appear you have to say "reveal my words". I don't remember the rest of the gifts but today should be a lot of fun! I'll ask them to enchant my diary so that it can also erase what I write (that way, when Albus and James come back, they won't see anything)!

I'm off now, Dad's ready to go and I'm really excited because today should be fun. I'll definitely write later.

Bye for now.

10/9/2017

Dear Moon,

Today was the best day ever! Me and Hugo had so much fun at the shop, trying out everything that my uncles had invented. We even wanted to throw up at one part because of all the sweets we'd eaten! Thank goodness they did a spell to make our tummy aches go away.

We had the new and improved version of the traditional Puking Pastels (only we already really wanted to throw up!), we played with a toy version of my dad and of Voldermort. It was hilarious! Hugo played my dad and I played the villain- of course I lost because that's how the legend goes.

The best part of all is that mum let me sleep at Hugo's for the night and then tomorrow we'd be going to Grandma's! It's so great to get nice news all day long! But they didn't charm my diary because they said I would need a wand for that and since I don't have one, it wasn't going to be possible.

Oh well. That couldn't upset me today because it was an amazing day. Although, when we passed by Olivander's wand shop, I remembered when we went in there only a few weeks ago for Albus. It made me remember Albus. And James, and Rose and Roxanne and Fred… It made me remember Hogwarts. It made me remember that I still had to wait about a year, eleven months and three weeks…

Oh well. It doesn't matter because I know that I will be able to survive until then. Besides, I have to go to Hugo's house now.

I'm leaving you here, don't worry you'll be safe, in a hidden place.

See you in two days!

Dear Moon,

I haven't been writing for a few days, not because I have been busy, but because sometimes I forgot or I was too tired. Not much has happened throughout the week and even if something had happened, I wouldn't be able to describe it properly.

But something good happened today, which made me remember that I had to write today. I received a letter from Albus earlier than I had expected and I was so excited when I saw Xedo return with a letter in his beak after so many days of jumping to the window every time I heard an owl flying near the house. I've decided to stick the letter in here so that I would keep it forever. My first letter, addressed to me, from my brother's first year at Hogwarts.

Dear Lily,

Since when do you write?

Anyway I was so happy to receive your letter and I know that if I start telling you everything, you might get upset but I'm still going to answer your questions.

First of all, I got put in Gryffindor just like everyone in the family! On the first night we had a huge banquet with really delicious food and I met lots of people who were going to be in the same house and year as me. I made friends with my four other room mates. They're all very nice. I'll tell you all about them soon- when I come for Christmas. But I don't understand something: one of our prefects in his last year is called Harris Granger and he's also a muggle-born. Do you think he's related to our Aunt Hermoine? (Happy birthday to her by the way) Well maybe it's just a coincidence.

Anyway, school is great and learning magic is even better than anything! It's amazing! I had my first ride on a broom three days ago and everyone said that I should become like mum and dad and play quidditch. It's weird how everybody knows me because of dad. Sometimes it's really hard because they all expect me to be just like him but I'm not. It's also hard for Rose. Everyone thinks she's supposed to be the smartest of the year but she has more of a passion for quidditch. But we're alright. I'm sure it's only like this because it's the beginning of the year. It'll all be fine by the time we're in January.

No, I don't get to see James often. The school is so huge that even at meal times I only see a tuff of his black hair. He seems to have a lot of friends but I don't know them. I did see him once though, in the Gryffindor common room. That was the day I received your letter. We read it together and he says when I reply I should say hi. So hi ! He too was surprised that you had tried writing. One day you'll be just like mum!

How are they by the way? I miss them a lot, tell them I said hi and that I miss and love them lots. Please don't tell them I'm having a hard time with my reputation as a Potter, I don't want them worrying.

Fred has already included Roxanne in his family business and they've already taken over the school with their Weasley Wizard Wheezes. None of teachers have found out yet. I don't know how they do it, maybe it's because no one would expect Roxanne to do such a thing. She's so sweet and kind to everyone, especially to teachers. But they suspect Fred of something mischievous since his dad and namesake were known for their mischievous Weasley acts.

I hope you and Hugo are enjoying yourselves, we all miss you too. I have to go because it's almost lights-out. If they catch me, I don't know what will happen to me. So I have to stop writing.

Write back soon!

Albus.

It made me so happy to read his letter because I missed him a lot and to find out that he was having fun but that he was busy at the same time made me wish that I could share that experience. In my heart I promised I wouldn't tell mum and dad about his hard time with a 'Potter' reputation and I knew it must have been hard for him. Even for me it was hard because everywhere I would go with dad, people would always say that I should be so proud of him. Or that I should follow his steps and my grandmother Lily's.

His question about that Harris Granger guy made me wonder. Could he be related to Aunt Hermione? Speaking of her, it's her birthday tomorrow and we got her a very beautiful pair of red high heels. Mum's choice. She said red suits aunt Hermione and that it reminded her of the dress she wore at uncle Bill's wedding. Was that a good thing or a bad thing?

Anyway, I don't have anything else to write.

I'll write about tomorrow's party tomorrow evening if can.

Bye!
