Chapter 3 " Rough Waters"
When he awoke the next morning his sister was gone. He looked over at her bed. It looked as if someone had been killed on
it. The sheets wore torn & bloody. It was horrible. He got up & searched for her through the house. She was no where to be
found. he was worried. What if his mom's boyfriend had taken her somewhere.
He realized it hadn't been a dream. It had really happened. He sat there at the breakfast table shaking & wondering horrible
things were happening to her. Just then his mother came down the stairs, shortly followed by her boyfriend. He got so mad
when he saw him. He knocked him to the ground & tried to strangle him. But he was too small. His mother pulled him off &
slapped him. He was shocked & in pain.
She helped her boyfriend off the ground & brushed him off. He then went over & slapped the boy too, except he hit a little
harder. The boy rightfully collapsed. His mother began laughing. Her boyfriend got some ice & put it on his hand. He stayed
on the floor where he fell, not wanting to move in fear of what they would do next. Then there was a knock on the door.
His mother told him to get up. He slowly pulled himself off the floor & sat in a chair, his hand on his cheek.
She then went to answer the door. " Hello Beatrice" Said a Tall man with graying hair. " Hello" she replied. " Get your
things" she snapped at the boy, " your father's here" she said with an edge to her voice. He ran up the stairs & got his school
trunk. As he was putting some quills in at the last moment he noticed that his sister's trunk & suitcase were also missing. He
pulled his trunk & suitcase down the stairs, into the street & finally into his father's car.
The ride was uneventful. His mother hadn't even said goodbye. suddenly his father reached over & patted him on the head. "
You've grown" he said. " Just a little" he replied. Again there was silence & it stayed that way until they got to the house. It
was smaller than his mother's house but much cozier & loving.
He pulled his trunk over the threshold went to sit in the kitchen. When he got there he was surprised to see his sister sitting
there working on some last minute homework. She didn't look up when he came into the room, being very focused, &
continued to write. He looked at her. Although she had covered up he could still see some of her wounds. She must have left
& caught a bus to his house. He almost began to cry when his dad came in & announced that they were going to a quidditch
match.
She feinted a smile & they got in the car & headed for the pitch. It was the wimbourne wasps against the wigtown
wanderers. After the match { the wasps had won} they headed over to hogsmeade. She bought a lot of sweets & some more
books on magical creatures. Her brother purchased some jokes & games at zonko's & a new quidditch poster. Then they
headed to fortescue's for some lunch. Ice cream for lunch, who'd a thought! Then they went home. Her father ordered some
chinese for dinner. They al took turns talking about the day the y had. Her brother showed them his new tricks & jokes. They
were all reduced to tears from laughing so hard they cried.
