"Good luck . . . Harry and Clara Potter. We'll meet again when time will be right."
I jerked awake when there was pounding on the door of mine and my twin brother's closet door. "Up. Get up," Our Aunt Petunia said and knocked, "Now!" With that, I heard her walking away. I sighed and looked at Harry to see he set up slightly. Our room (Closet) was slightly smell but we both managed to get used to it.
For the past eleven years, me and my twin older brother, Harry, grown up with our mother's sister, Petunia, her husband, Vernon and her son, Dudley. Harry and I don't remember our parents, Lily and James Potter, since they died when we were still babies. Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon told us that they died in a car accident after we begged them to tell us where our parents were. They said we were left at their front door with a letter after our parents' death.
My thoughts were interrupted by the lights turning on. I glanced at Harry as he put on his glasses. I pulled our blankets up to cover my head and I heard him sighing. "Come on, you heard her," He said, patting the blanket that cover my head.
"No . . ." I muttered, sighing. "Just a little longer."
"She'll get angry," He said, tagging the blanket off of me. "Let's go." Suddenly footsteps pounded down the stairs, pause for a brief moment before running back up. Then, someone jumped up and down as dust fell from the top of the cupboard and onto us.
"Wake up, cousins! We're going to the zoo!" Dudley shouted before the jumping stopped and continued down.
I shared a look with Harry and then looked at the door to see Dudley running by before Harry pushed the door opened and we walked out. We headed towards the kitchen as we heard Aunt Petunia's voice, "Oh, here he comes, the birthday boy!"
We walked inside to see her and Dudley rubbing their noses against each other before she looked at us with a glare, "Why don't you two just cook the breakfast, and try not to burn anything."
"Yes, Aunt Petunia," Harry and I said at the same time. I headed to the coffee maker while Harry went over to the stove.
"I want everything to be perfect for my Dudley's special day," Aunt Petunia said as she covered Dudley's eyes before she led him to a lots of presents near by.
"Hurry up," Uncle Vernon told Harry as he started to put the breakfast on the plate. "And bring my coffee, girl," He told me.
"Yes, Uncle Vernon," I said as I grabbed the coffee mug and poured him his drink.
I glanced over at Aunt Petunia as she moved her hands away from Dudley's eyes and she clapped her hands together, "Aren't they wonderful, darling?"
Dudley stared at the presents before turning to look at Uncle Vernon, "How many are there?" Harry put the breakfast in front of Uncle Vernon and I handed him the coffee.
"Thirty-six. Counted 'em myself," Uncle Vernon replied proudly.
"Thirty-six?! But last year last year I got thirty-seven!" Dudley snapped.
"Yes, well, some of them are quite a bit bigger than last year," Uncle Vernon said as I shared a look with my twin.
"I don't care how big they are!" Dudley said.
"Oh, now, now, now," Aunt Petunia said, "This is what we're going to do, is that when we go out we're going to buy you two new presents. How's that, Pumpkin?" Harry and I glared at Dudley before sharing another look.
... ...
After breakfast was done, Harry and I cleaned the table and washed the dishes while Dudley opened all of his presents. After that, we all headed outside the house and headed towards the car. "This will be a lovely day at the zoo. I'm really looking forward to it," Aunt Petunia said before she and Dudley climbed into the car.
Harry and I were about to climbed in but then Uncle Vernon closed the door as he turned to us, "I'm warning you two now," He started, "Any funny business, any at all, and you won't have any meals for a week. Get in."
Harry and I glanced at each other as he climbed in before we climbed in the back seat. Uncle Vernon started to car and we drove away, heading to the zoo.
