Finale
Even years later, it still seemed impossible that Lily, my wonderful, magical big sister, could possibly be dead. I kept expecting her and James to come back from wherever they were and take Harry back home… I kept thinking, oh, Lily would like that, and realising that she'd never be able to… I kept thinking it was about time we had Lily round for dinner…
And then, nine years after Harry came to stay forever, the Hogwarts letters arrived. Rhialle and Harry had identical envelopes made of really thick parchment and their addresses in green ink.
I remembered Lily's letter when I saw theirs.
Remus noticed, and put his arm round me. I smiled. He was so sweet.
The identical smiles on our faces matched Rhialle's and Harry's.
We are pleased to inform you that you have a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry…
