Chapter Two
Seamus had invited the red haired Weasley but wasn't surprised when the old friend didn't came to visit him. Wizards had to be cautious and a quick chat in the streets was more than he could have expected. Most of the old friends had passed away already or lived a good life struggling with every new day.
The muggles on the other hand new nothing about it and Seamus tried his best to live among them. From time to time he stopped by a book shop and saw the muggle version of the tale he knew better than anything else of his life. He stayed when a mother read to her daughter or a dressed up witch read the greatest book of all time. He listened and smiled when they mentioned some of his old days explosions before he turned away with a sad face.
Nina tried to kick her blanket out of the bed and free herself of the heat but it didn't help. Her bedroom was heated by the sunshine flooding her every corner and crawling into every space defeating shadows any place of escape.
"Gosh, if I had magic I would let it rain and end this nightmare" She slapped her pillow before crushing it and throwing it against the window. Every feather inside her sheet dropped to the floor while the young woman turned around and closed her eyes. "Of course the best days of summer are while I have to stay in bed"
After she sighed and turned even further she reached the end of her bed. One step after another she walked away from the burning sun towards her shower in the bathroom. It was cooler and the water had satisfying mild temperature once she turned it on.
Drops splashing from her hands she dreamed of a bubble bath like in Hogwarts. Magical appeared colours filling her room and taking away every sign of odd attempts of decoration and while she would swim in the same tub like the golden boy she would have to solve her own mysteries and long lost secrets.
She smiled at the thought of it and turned off her dreams like the water.
He sat alone on the park bank and held the book in his hands. Ron sighed when he touched the cover and struggled with the thought on his mind. He could keep the book and started to read the last chapter over and over again or finally say goodbye to the one chapter of his own life.
Between the covers was an old page which hadn't been moved for the past years until Ron turned to the page and closed his eyes. The sun didn't effect him much and the mild upcoming whistle gave him no chill until he heard the sound of moving paper.
Dancing above his head the wizard tried to catch it and failed. The old page danced away and got faster as the whistle got stronger and carried it away. Its owner jumped off the bank and grabbed his case before searching the sky above and following the words flying high above the streets and taking shortcuts over roofs and chimneys.
"Stop! Stop right there" He shouted after the paper and catched it three corners after where it slipped through an open window on the first floor and left its owner waiting outside the house of a muggle.
Nina wasn't expecting any visitor and was surprised when she heard the knock on her door. Whoever was outside was getting impatient the longer she let them wait while taking each step of her stairway slowly and without risk of falling.
"I'm not breaking my other leg as well, you damn idiot!" Cursing and shouting at the stranger outside her door she felt better and reached the end of the stairway. Just a few more steps until she reached the door and pulled it open, where she froze staring into the other's face.
"Ronald Weasley -"
