Chapter 15; a day of sorrow

As September ended and October came with all of its brilliant colors Harry became melancholy as the day of his parents death drew ever near. The week before Halloween Harry had talk to Faragonda about being able to be excused from classes on that day.

(Flashback)

"pardon me headmistress Faragonda?" Harry said as he entered her office. Faragonda gave a smile to her student, as she said, " what is it that I can do for you today Harry?"

Harry gave her another small smile before taking a seat, "hmm..." Harry started,

" you see the anniversary of my parents passing is coming up... And...mmnm... I was wondering if maybe... If I... Oh bugger why is this so hard?"

Faragonda smiled at her student, she knew what he was trying to ask, Dumbledore had informed her that ever since Harry found out about his parents when he was 11, that every Halloween he would take time to reflect and take time to remember them.

A soft gentle smile settled on her face as she said, " I understand Harry, and yes you may take the 31st off of classes to be able to reflect on those who have gone before us." Harry gave a brilliant smile before he got up and made his way out of the office.

(End flashback)

So while everyone was enjoying the day of tricks and treats one boy satin in remembrance of his parents, and the people who had fault beside and next to him.

It was almost dinner time when there was a knock on Harry's door.

Calling or whoever it was to enter Harry Sat upon his bed continuing to look over his photo album.

"Hey Harry." Bloom said as she entered his room, stopping next to his bed Bloom ask, " are you alright Harry? We've all been quite worried about you today."

Harry gave her a sad smile as he said, " yeah I'll be okay bloom, I'm just in remembrance of my parents who died on this day when I was very young."

Bloom could hear the sadness in her friend's voice. Walking to sit down on the bed she reached out and place a hand on Harry's shoulder, she glanced down at the still open album on his lap as she said,

"it's okay to stop and reflect and remember those who have passed Harry, but I don't think your parents would want you to remember them in sadness, I believe they would want you to be happy... I know, Maybe if you told some stories about you that you know where that you were told with make you little happy."

Harry bit his lip before nodding and saying, " yeah... I think I would like to tell someone about my parents."

Bloom smiled as Harry and her walk out into the common room where the rest of their friends were waiting,

They waited for Harry to approach before each getting up and giving Harry a hug, after everyone had sat down Harry took a deep breath and said, " I would like to tell you guys a story about my parents... If you don't mind that is?"

The girls just smiled and nodded for Harry to start, with a deep breath Harry began his parents story, " well, it all began when my parents met on the Hogwarts Express when they were eleven..."

And with that a day of sorrow and pains became a day of laughs and smiles.
