chapter fourteen

In Bill and Fleur's living room

Fleur Weasley (wife of Bill Weasley) and Audrey Weasley (wife of Percy Weasley) were sitting and talking, and then Angelina Weasley (wife of George Weasley) entered the room.

"Roxanne finally fell asleep," said Angelina. "I put her in Victoire's room, Fleur."

Fleur said, "Okay."

"Arthur doesn't live here anymore, Fleur?" said Angelina, sitting down.

"No," said Fleur, "he had decided to go to the Leaky Cauldron, but do you think had he gone to that woman McGonagall?"

"I don't think so," said Audrey.

"Three days ago we couldn't have thought that all this would happen and that Arthur would have a daughter from another woman," Fleur said.

"Professor McGonagall is not that kind of woman, Fleur," said Angelina.

Angelina sighed and continued, "George and his siblings are very worried about Molly."

"I'm so sad for Molly," said Audrey. "She doesn't deserve it."

"I never thought Arthur would be such a man," Fleur said.

Angelina said, "It's only one mistake, Fleur, don't be too hard on him."

Fleur said, "Would you have said the same thing if George betrayed you once, Angelina?"

Angelina sighed and said, "This is not what I meant, but what happened has happened, and Arthur admits his mistake and regrets it. He would have confessed to Molly had it not been for you and Bill announcing the news of the pregnancy nine years ago."

"I'm sure it's just an excuse," Fleur said. "I'm sure he wouldn't have confessed."

"Doesn't that mean that girl is the same age as Victoire?" said Audrey.

" No, Victoire is about a month older than her," Fleur said.

Angelina said, "In this case, Victoire is older than her younger aunt."

Audrey said, "Do you think Arthur and the boys and Ginny will accept Athena into their midst and consider her from family?"

Angelina said, "Is the girl's name Athena?"

Audrey replied, "Yes."

Fleur said, "I don't know, but I don't think they will accept her. Whenever they look at her, they will remember Arthur's betrayal. This will be very difficult, especially for Molly."

Audrey said, "The presence of this girl will be a reminder that reminds the family of what happened whenever they try to forget it."

"Poor girl," Angelina said. "She has a big family, but she can't be a part of it."

"It's her mother's and father's fault," Fleur said.

Angelina said, "But isn't Professor McGonagall too old for have child at this age?"

Audrey said, "It is not common, but it is possible for witches to give birth at this age in some cases."

Angelina said, "I want to visit Molly, but Ginny refuses to have anyone else care for her mother or help her."

"Poor Ginny," said Audrey، "She is afraid and worried about her mother, and shocked at her father at the same time."

Fleur said, "Bill and his siblings are worried and sad about their mother and angry at their father, but they are trying to be calm and control their nerves. Of course, I don't blame Ginny, because no one feels the pain of a woman other than the woman. I hope that our family will overcome this matter with the least losses."

And the three completed the conversation until both Audrey and Angelina returned to their home.

After three days in the burrow.

Ginny was in the burrow kitchen preparing food for little Albus Severus, who was now sitting on the kitchen floor playing with some of his toys.

"Albus, don't sit on the kitchen floor, it's dangerous, my kid," said Ginny.

Albus said, "Will you play with me, Mama?"

Ginny said, "Not now, my little boy. Mama's busy. I'll prepare food for you, and after you eat, I'll play with you."

Albus said, "When will James and Papa come?"

Albus was missing his older brother, James, and his father, Harry Potter. Ginny had decided to move to the burrow three days ago to be with her mother, and she took with her the infant Lily Luna and Albus Severus, and left James Sirius to Harry to take care of him, as he is four years old, and Harry will be able to take care of him. And speaking of Harry, he took time off from work, so Ginny could stay in the burrow with Molly.

"He'll come tomorrow morning, Albus," said Ginny. "Go into the living-room and I'll finish and come to you."

Little Albus came out dragging his toys behind him.

Ginny sighed, she misses her son James and her husband Harry so much, but she can't leave her mother , Molly barely eats what keeps her alive and refuses to talk to anyone.

Ginny heard her baby daughter crying from her bedroom, and sighed. Half an hour ago, she put her in her crib for her nap.

Ginny went towards the stairs of the house until she reached her little daughter's room, which was Ginny's room when she was staying in the burrow, but when she was in the middle of the way, the crying stopped, and Ginny accelerated her pace, and when she opened the door to the room, she was a little surprised by what she saw.

She saw her mother, Molly, holding the baby Lily in her arms and rocking her gently.

When Molly saw Ginny, she said, "Oh, dear ginny, Lily needs her diaper changed, and I think the poor girl has a stomach ache. I will change her diaper, and you go quickly and bring the stomach medicine for the infants . You brought it with you, didn't you, my little one?"

Ginny was unable to speak from surprise, as she had not heard her mother's voice for the past five days.

Ginny just shook her head yes and went to the bag containing Lily's things and at the same time Molly was cleaning little Lily and she sang to her to distract her from the stomach ache, Ginny found the medicine and gave it to her mother who took it and put a spoonful of it carefully in her mouth Lily and started shaking her tenderly until the effect of the medicine begins and she falls asleep.

After Lily fell asleep, Molly put her in the crib, turned off the room lamp, and told Ginny to follow her silently so that Lily would not wake up.

Ginny was following her mother without speaking, Molly was acting naturally.

When she reached the living room Albus yelled "Grandma" and ran as fast as his little legs could to her and hugged Molly.

Molly picked him up and went to the couch and put him on her lap and hugged him tenderly.

"Grandma, are you sick," Albus said, and Ginny's face turned white.

She had told him that his grandmother was sick whenever he wanted to see her and play with her.

"No, my little, I'm not sick anymore," said Molly, and kissed him on the forehead.

Ginny went to the kitchen and brought him food and increased the number of plates so that she could make her mother eat, if she saw Albus eating.

And she was surprised and happy when Molly took the dishes from Ginny and said, "Didn't you prepare food for Ginny? , my dear, go and get you another plate, so we can all eat together."

Ginny did as Molly told him, and she, her mother, and her son, Albus, sat down to eat together.

After Albus fell asleep, Ginny put him in one of her brothers' rooms.

She went into the living room and found Molly sitting on the couch holding a picture of herself and Arthur from them school days.

Ginny went and sat next to her mother.

Molly said sadly, "I did not think that the pain of betrayal is painful in this way. I hope that you will never experience this, my child, and that no one in my family will experience this also ."

Ginny put her hand on Molly's hand.

Molly continued, "I felt that my world was collapsing after hearing about the betrayal. It was a stab that I did not expect, so her pain was greater and greater, but I thought of my children and grandchildren, and after that I began to regain control of myself, and I thought, Yes, Arthur is my husband and the first love of my life and The only one, but I still have my children and grandchildren, they are the most important thing in my life they need me and I need them, so I told myself you gotta get over it Molly, you gotta try at least and don't give up."

"Take your time, Mother," Ginny said. "We're on your side."

"Sorry, I made you worry about me," said Molly.

"The most important thing is that you are well, Mother," said Ginny. "And in good health, don't worry about us."

Molly hugged her daughter and said, "You've been taking care of me, Ginny, lately."

Ginny replied, "It's nothing, Mother, compared to what you've done for me and my siblings. All that matters is that you're healthy and get over it. That's the most important thing."

She said to me, "I want you to return to your home, my dear Jenny, you have little children to look after."

"I'm not going to leave you alone in the burrow in this particular situation," said Ginny. "Wait, I have an idea. Why don't you come and stay with me and Harry and the kids at our home at least until you clear your head and decided What are you going to do next? Do you want to talk about it?" I mean what happened recently with my father".

Molly sighed. "Not now, Ginny. At least don't make me talk about it today, and where does your father live now?"

"Percy told me he's staying in the Leaky Cauldron," said Ginny.

"Well, Ginny," said Molly, "I'm going to stay with you and Harry temporarily until I decide what to do and get ready to talk to Arthur and until Arthur gets home, how can you let your father stay in the leaky cauldron like that?"

Ginny said angrily, "Isn't what he did enough for you, Mother?"

"It's between him and me," said Molly, "and he's still your father, Ginny."

Ginny sighed and said, "It was his decision to stay in the Leaky Cauldron."

Molly said, "Okay."

And the mother and her daughter spoke a little and avoided talking about the issue of Arthur's betrayal and his eighth child, and Ginny then went to send letters to her brothers reassuring them of Molly's condition and improvement.
