and now Betty Evans and Bob Evans (It's sort of a joke)
Chapter 2 â€" The News
********************
Lily and Abi had just gotten back from Hogsmeade. They bought tons of sweets from Honeydukes. When they got back to the Gryffindor common room she was greeted by her family owl. "Why would they send me something now?" she thought to herself. She took the envelope and opened it. It read:
Dear Lily,
Your mother has just died. I will contact Dumbledore so you can attend the funeral.
Dad
Lily was so shocked she slid down the wall and ended up in a heap on the floor. She was too shocked to be sad. How could this happen? Her mother, Betty Evans, so young and regular. Why??? Suddenly a tiny voice sounded at the back of her brain. "Of course you knew this was coming. She's been sick with cancer ever since you first went to Hogwarts," it said. She felt so confused. This had to be a dream. It couldn't have happened so soon. But as she heard Abi's voice keep asking her what's wrong, she knew it wasn't. Lily pointed a shaky finger to the letter and she felt small tears starting to form in her eyes. The truth sank in. Her mother was GONE. And she never had gotten to say goodbye. She clearly remembered her last words to her: "I hate you!!!!!!!!!! Why can't you just let me be independent for once???!!!!" she had spoken these harsh words to her weeping mother when she had refused to sign the Hogsmeade permission form just yet. Her father had been on a business trip when the form went home so he couldn't sign it. Lily ended up forging the signature and had never spoken to her again. She felt a horrible feeling in her stomach. How could she be so mean to her mother? She so longed to say sorry but that wasn't an option. She was GONE!!!
Abi read the letter and comforted her sobbing friend. People kept asking what the matter was but Abi waved them aside. This wasn't a time to tell everybody. Lily cried until there wasn't anything left inside her.

a/n: I know this is sort of dramatic but it just had to happen, I mean if Harry had no remaining relatives then something had to happen to them. Please review and tell me what you think!
