Chapter 10

Visiting the cemetery

It was a bright day at the Grimmauld Place. Everything was very calm at the Potters' resident. At the backyard, Harry was watching as April swam through the small swimming pool Harry had built for her (I told you the man spends his money entirely on his daughter) April was splashing water to Harry, laughing playfully.

Harry looked at his watch. He needed April to get dry and suit her into her black dress to visit Miranda's grave.

"Okay, honey, I think that's enough for today, you need to get into your dress," said Harry. April slowly walked to Harry, her brown hair soaked. Harry dried her with a fluffy pink towel.

"Daddy, where are we going?" asked April with a curious voice.

"We're going to your mother's grave," Harry said quietly. "With Aunt Luna and Hugh."

"Really? Can we go to Madeline, I want to tell everything about school," said April as they both walked into the house. Harry nodded. He always seemed so sad to visit Madeline's grave but April is always excited to talk to her beloved young sister. Even more, now it's her mother, there was so much to talk about.

This will explain about Madeline

When Harry was eighteen, her had proposed to Miranda and asked her to spend a lifetime with him. She had agreed and had gotten married to him a few months after the proposal. She looked stunning in her wedding dress. Her silky chocolate hair was braided at the front and at the back of her hair, she had clipped pearls onto it. Her eyes, gazing at Harry with joy. Her wedding dress was a white dress with white flower petals as decorations. She was also wearing a white shawl.

A year after that, Miranda had gave birth to twins. Yes, you heard me, TWINS. One was named Madeline Miranda Fernandez Potter while the other child was named April Lillian Fernandez Potter. At that time, the battle between the Death Eaters and the Ministry was not over yet. Of course, without Voldemort, he death eaters were losing, killed one by one. Harry had successfully killed Narcissa Malfoy and left Bellatrix to come over her grief of her sister's death. Three months after that, she had come for revenge and had killed Madeline with a killing curse. Nobody could imagine how barbaric Bellatrix's death was when she was killed by Harry.

The Wizard Cemetery is a very odd place indeed. It was located at the West of Diagon Alley. It was a very popular place too. Everyone who was famous was buried there, including Helga Hufflepuff, Cedric Diggory and all of those who had died in the Second Wizard War. Harry was planning to visit Snape's , Miranda's, Moody's, Madeline's, Sirius's and of course, his parents' grave. The journey to Diagon Alley was easy. They just used some Floo powder and then walked to the cemetery.

The front gate of the cemetery was a bit creepy with the vines but the inside of the cemetery was covered thick with snow. What can I say, it's Diagon Alley. Although the place looked like it was winter, the weather wasn't cold. The land of the cemetery just has it own ways of changing the theme of the graveyard. Icy winter, falling autumn, hot summer or beautiful spring.

Harry and April walked into the graveyard and found Luna and Hugh standing in front of a tombstone. They walked to Luna's direction.

"Hi, Luna, Hugh. Roger's?" Harry asked. Luna nodded.

"Yeah, we're just going to put some flowers on it. Go ahead, Hugh," said Luna. Hugh gently put a bouquet of flowers in front of his father's tombstone. If you wanted to know, Roger died of a snakebite from Nagini; the snake was slaughtered a few days after that.

Luna wiped away her tears and looked to Harry.

"So where do you want to go first?"

First, they went to old Snivellus's grave and then Moody's. Harry then stopped at James and Lily's tombstones and asked April to visit her sister's grave. Meanwhile, Luna had asked Hugh to visit his Uncle Steward's grave. Luna slowly approached Harry, who was arranging a few lilies for his mother's grave and some red roses on his father's.

"You miss them, don't you?" asked Luna.

"Yeah, just like any other person would. I still can't believe they transported my parents' bodies from somewhere else," said Harry, standing up.

"Trust me, the ministry has its own unique way of burying people," said Luna. They had a very good chat after that. They had stopped at Sirius's memorial stone and had arranged some flowers there and then rushed on to Miranda's grave. April had a lot to talk to her mother.

"She looks so happy," Harry said with a smile on his face, watching April happily talking to Miranda's tombstone.

"Yeah, at least she's not like Hugh, who always seem to be very sulky whenever anyone mentions Roger Davies," Luna frowned. "I think I'm going to send him to a psychiatrist."

"His father cheated on his mother. I wouldn't blame him if he was so angry at him."

"I know that but he's still the father."

"So you heard anything about Cho?"

"Oh, yeah, she was unemployed and then sympathetic Malfoy comes over and gives her a job at Hog's Head," explained Luna.

"Well, lucky for her, Draco turned against his own parents," said Harry, remembering the slick haired man who had joined the Order.

An hour after that, they decided to go back home.

"You go ahead first, April, I have to talk with Aunt Luna for a while," said Harry, watching April and Hugh running to the gate. Harry looked at Luna and found it hard to say something to her. "I…I just wanted to say thank you for accompanying me."

"That's what friends are for, right?" said Luna. Their eyes met for a while. Harry blushed.

Why in the world am I blushing? Yup, this is another lost soul. Ahem. Ahem. Duh, isn't it kind of obvious? You still like her! No, that… that can't be! Just listen to me okay! #! You still like her and you just have to go out with her! Understand? Okay, okay, keep your head on!

"Uh, Luna, would you, like to, emmm, go out with me? For dinner, maybe? Just the two of us?" asked Harry with a nervous voice.

"That'll be great, Harry, I'll meet you tomorrow then, call me, bye," said Luna. She quickly turned her face away from Harry and blushed madly.

He likes me! He still likes me!
