Chapter 3:
The room was silent. You couldn't even hear people breathing. Everything was on mute. They looked at me and I just stared blankly at them. I bet they didn't even know where to start. Although, I didn't either. My Father kept opening then closing his mouth. It was better that way. He always had the subtlety of a firecracker. I looked at my lap. I didn't know what to do. Or what to say at the moment. I had so many thoughts circling my head. I've dreamed of this moment, telling them what I feel and making them realize everything they've done. But now, I was blank.
"Uh, Rose, sweetheart are you okay?" My Mother asked. What a stupid question. Of course I wasn't okay. I was far from it. All I wanted to do was end the misery but that obviously didn't happen. My response to that was an "are you kidding me" look? She had the nerve to ask if I was okay. She knew I haven't been okay since first year! I got the strength to talk.
"Are you serious? You're asking me if I'm okay? I'm far from it and it's my so-called "family"— I was interrupted.
"Now you listen hear young lady. It is not our fault that you tried to end your life." My biological link of a dad said. His face and ears where already turning the color of his thinning hair. I looked at him. He used to be the doting father. The dad who would do anything for his little girl. He hasn't been that person since I sent home my first letter from Hogwarts. I rolled my eyes and laughed.
"Are you that daft, Daddy dearest? Of course its all of you're guys fault. Who was it that sent me a letter saying that I was no longer your daughter?" I looked at him.
I turned to my mom, "And who was it that gave me the cold shoulder and wouldn't looked at me when I came home from break?" Both of their faces were shocked. They actually think that didn't affect me. It was unbelievable.
I looked at my Aunts and Uncles. They looked shocked also. I swear my family is full of idiots.
It was time I told my Aunts and Uncles what they did.
"You guys gave me the cold shoulder. You stopped asking me about my life. You practically erased me from the family. My first Christmas as a Hogwarts student you all didn't even give me a present. You also forgot my birthday. What a way to make a kid feel loved and special." I said. All of them flinched.
"Mom, Dad, Uncle Harry. You guys went after people with no morals and were evil. And yet you treat your daughter and niece like one of those people. It's disgusting." I said. I wasn't even finished. I was just getting started.
"Grandma and Grandpa, you treated me differently also. Grams, you stopped giving me your warming hugs that are full of love. Instead you gave me a pathetic hug like you were touching a dead body. You even stopped sewing the Weasley Christmas sweater with my initial on it. You pride yourself on being a mother yet; you deliberately forget to mother your granddaughter. And Grandpa, you stopped asking me to explain muggle things to you. In fact, you stopped talking to me period." After that little speech, they looked down at their feet in shame. I was then interrupted yet again.
"Rose we didn't mean to do that to you. It was just you're a Slytherin. It's hard." My mother said.
"Well you did anyway. You guys helped turn the whole family against me. I was iced out. I was alone. Did you know that all of the cousins bullied and tormented me at Hogwarts? And guess who was their ringleader? Little ol' Lilly. And then they turned the school against me. I only had one friend and he betrayed me too." I looked at Scorpius. His expression was like a puppy that just got kicked. I wanted to just engulf him in a hug but I remembered what he did. What he joined in on. Uncle Harry and Aunt Ginny stared at Lilly in disbelief.
"Lilly, what did you do?" Uncle Harry asked. His brow was bunched up in anger. I must have struck a cord in him.
Cliffy! What will Lilly admit?
