Chapter 4
Breakfast was on the table waiting for them. Harry saw a note and picked it up. He read it out loud:
Dear Harry and Hermione
We have both gone to work early today. This means that will we get home a bit earlier than usual. Do you have idea where you would like to go out to
tea? Think about it and enjoy yourself today.
Love from both of us.
Harry smiled at this and set the note down on the table. He and Hermione started talking about what they should do that day. Harry had just reached out for the marmalade, when an owl came flying in through the open window. It dropped it's letter in Harry's lap and perched on the seat back next to Hermione.
Harry recognised the bird as Ron's. It was called Pig and was the size of a clenched fist. Last year it had been totally hyperactive, but it seemed to have calmed down a bit. Hermione made her way over to Harry and read the letter over his shoulder. It said:
Hi,
How are you both? I heard you made an early escape this year Harry! I hope you have both enjoyed yourself! Anyway, Mum has invited you both over for
the rest of the holidays. We have a surprise planned for you Harry. Hermione already knows a bit about it, but I'm sure she hasn't told you!
Send Pig back with your answer soon please.
See ya
Ron.
Harry looked at Hermione. "What have you been planning?" he asked.
She laughed and said: "You're not going to get it out of me! I'll go and ring Mum and ask her, shall I?"
Harry nodded and watched as she made her way over to the telephone by the range. Her mum answered quickly and Hermione came back soon.
"She said its fine. We'll have tonight as a leaving party then, shall we?" Harry nodded. "I'll go and send Pig back to Ron saying he can pick us up tomorrow." She left the room to go and get some paper. Harry started to eat his breakfast in an even happier mood, than he had been before.
