Letter #2 - We lost another one today... (May 10, 1999)

Dearest Mum,

It's been awhile since I last wrote you, but so much has happened. I don't even know where to begin. I guess, first, I want to say that I miss you even more than before. It's getting harder by the minute to survive this war and the closer the end comes, we're wondering if it's really going to happen. We can all hope, right?

Mum, I'm sad to tell you that we lost George. Dad is mourning, as are Ron and Bill, but I am not sure how to feel about it. Part of me is saddened by his loss and I really miss him, but another part of me is happy because he is with Fred again. He missed him so much, you know? Much like we all did, but I think it was George who missed him the most. I think he wanted to leave this world to join Fred in the other one. If that's the case, then why should I be sad about it?

Though, I'm sure you already know all of this. The two of them are probably still giving you gray hairs wherever it is you are, yes? -smiles- I'm sure they are and they're doing it proudly. I'm sure there was great rejoicing there when George arrived. The Weasley clan is growing there and it's fading here, but that's all in due time when we're all rejoined.

Ron was hurt in the same battle we lost George. He's been in a coma for the past three weeks and since then Harry and Hermione haven't left him. Harry refuses and Hermione just can't bring herself to let go of his hand. Strange enough, we had a bit of shocking news that involves Harry. Since Harry refuses to leave Ron's bedside, he's had a visitor staying with him. Care to guess? I doubt you will. It's odd, but it makes so much sense...Professor Snape.

There are moments when we're all in the room with Ron, talking to him to try and get him awake, and Professor Snape will come into the room, not a say a word, walk over to Harry and put his hands on his shoulders. It's amazing to see, Mum. Harry, just by that simple touch, can go from tense to relaxed without so much as blinking an eye. Seamus thinks that once the war is over with, things will be better between the two, but I think it's already on its way.

Bill and Fleur are expecting their first baby. She's around five or six weeks, I think. Bill told us during a dinner when she was around three weeks. I think it's wonderful, really. They've already decided that if they have a little girl, they are going to give her your name. Isn't that precious? Dad cried when Bill told him that. We're just hoping that no one else will fall in this battle. It has to end soon. We can all hope and pray for that day, anyway.

Professor Dumbledore shut down the school for all the years except seventh years. I'm struggling, but I'm still doing well. It's hard to concentrate with everything going on. But, I will do well because I want to make you proud of me.

Dad said that once the war is over and Ron's woken up, we're going to have a traditional Weasley family celebration in honor of all those we have lost and for those that have survived.

I am going to end this now and I'll write you again soon to let you know what's going on. Please remember we're all eager to see you again, but we know we can't wish for death. We will indeed live until our time is up. Please give George a kiss for me and tell him I'm happy he's finally at peace with Fred once again.

Your loving daughter,
Ginerva Weasley
