Chapter 276 Starting to Love and Waking Up

Petunia sat on the sofa until late at night, without the slightest thought of getting up to do anything.Looking at the invitation letter on the coffee table, thinking about the appearance of Lily and James who came here today, I wanted to laugh, but I didn't know why.

The sound of the TV was very lively, but Petunia didn't hear it at all. When she was alone in this house, she would feel very lonely.

With the compensation for the accidental death of her parents, Penny didn't use it casually.She saved all the money, and it was enough to receive some interest every year.Penny didn't have a crisis of using money, but Penny usually earned the tuition fees for school or her own expenses by working part-time by herself.

Whenever she was alone, Petunia missed the old days when her parents were still there, and even Lily.Of course Petunia knew that Lily could not be blamed for the death of her parents, but at that time her emotions were on the verge of collapse, and without a vent, Petunia would go crazy.

So he selfishly put everything on Lily's shoulders, ignoring himself, his only relative, as if he had no fault at all, so he wouldn't be sad.

It's actually not... When I hated Lily, I didn't get the relaxation I wanted, but it became more and more heavy.Those pains followed like a shadow, without any reduction.Even every time I think of Lily's desperate face, the big rock in my heart becomes heavier and heavier.

Lily was just a little girl, and Petunia knew she was spoiled.And Petunia also knew that she was jealous, jealous of Lily who made her parents so partial.So why would there be such a useless younger sister who wanted revenge and only played tricks?

It is a kindness to her to let her live under the same roof as her. Lily should know what gratitude is, what is a good sister cooperation, and she should be obedient.

It's a pity that Lily has never been a sister who can satisfy her, and will never be so well-behaved.After driving her away, Dumbledore came to intercede, so he let her come back to live, but he didn't see her.

While Lily herself moved out later, Petunia herself didn't have it easy.She did not treat Lily with verbal violence, but used emotional cold violence to hurt her only relative.Whenever I do this, I actually hurt not only Lily, but also myself.But with such a hurtful behavior, Petunia couldn't stop herself, so it became more and more painful.

Now that Lily is still so young, she is about to marry a kid from the wizarding world.It's not that Petunia doesn't believe that there is love between them, but these are still two children. Can they really understand what marriage means?Can they really know how they will face real life in the future?

That's not a fairy tale that says I can overcome everything if I love you. Real life is not as beautiful as a fairy tale.

The two children are about to start a life of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and Petunia doesn't know how they will face it.In particular, Lily hadn't experienced any hardships since she was a child, and all the problems were solved for her by either her father or her mother.And her parents' funeral was also arranged by her alone. Lily had never tried to do anything, or it wasn't because she didn't try to do it, but because she didn't have the opportunity to intervene.In the name of love, they restricted Lily's growth.

And James Potter has no parents now, and they have no elders. How can this wedding be carried out?Neither wizards nor ordinary people do not need the blessing of their parents when they get married.

Petunia knew that her objection would not be effective. Lily and James have faced many things together now, have they grown up?She had heard Lily recount all kinds of things wrong with James, but now that they were standing in front of her together, James was an image of an upright man.

And Lily is not as innocent as before.This is not to say that innocence is not good in Petunia's view, but that Lily has calmed down, and she has become calm after going through major events.

Not long ago, Dumbledore sent her another letter. When Lily moved out, it was the eve of the war between the Death Eaters and the Order of the Phoenix.It was because he was afraid of causing trouble for her, and he also wanted to protect her in this way.Knowing this, Penny herself really looked away.

No matter what Lily was like before, the blood bond between them could never be broken.And the deep love between relatives that flows based on this blood will not be cut off.

There are no TV programs on the TV now, the screen is already a mess, and it is already late at night before I know it.

Petunia reached out to open the invitation letter on the coffee table. There was a faint fragrance on the delicate invitation card, like the smell of happiness.They were almost the same wedding invitations, except that the protagonist was her own sister, and Petunia had both sighs and blessings.

Putting the invitation back, her fingertips touched another piece of paper. Puzzled, Penny took out that piece of paper.

It was just a small note, and Petunia saw the contents of the note clearly through the flickering light of the TV.

"To Penny,

Sister, I love you.

Also, sorry.

your eternal sister,

Lily

Petunia felt her eyes pan sour, and two lines of tears slipped down from her eye sockets uncontrollably.Thin hands covered her face - she never thought Lily would tell her that.

After taking a few deep breaths, Petunia ran upstairs, wrote a letter, then ran down, and sent it to Lily in her newly installed instant mailbox.

Since they have no elders, it's up to her to bless them.Even if they have conflicts in the future, they will be resolved slowly.Because that's life.

The day before Bert took his family on a trip, the sun was still shining, and Alfred Castle was as beautiful as a dream in the morning light.

Had a long dream, and now Dumbledore is still asleep.Gellert stayed by Dumbledore's bed for a long time. During this period, in order to keep Dumbledore's body active, Severus brewed a lot of potions for Dumbledore to take.

Burt's treatment was successful, and the curse had been completely removed from Dumbledore's body by Burt.And now Dumbledore has not woken up for a long time, just because Dumbledore's body was cursed and was in a very weak state.

This is not something that can be made up for by drinking a lot of potions. You can only make up for Dumbledore slowly after Dumbledore is willing to wake up.

Gellert lived such a life, living in other people's homes for a long time, which was equivalent to being dependent on others.No special fun.Gellert's only leisure was to watch Dumbledore's every reaction.And when you are tired, study the current elemental magic, which can be regarded as a way for yourself to continue to improve.

Gellert himself didn't feel sad when he locked himself in Nurmengard before.Now that Dumbledore is guarding him, of course he won't feel lonely anymore.Just looking at Dumbledore quietly like this, I can feel the happiness surging in my heart.

Of course, not without unpleasant moments.For example, I would also come here to see Dumbledore's Aberforth. Gellert himself didn't have a good impression of Aberforth. The conflicts that year caused him to part ways with Dumbledore.How could Gellert be grateful to Aberforth.

Just trying to prevent Aberforth from visiting Dumbledore is not an open and honest approach. If Dumbledore wakes up, he will not have any good looks at Gellert who drove Aberforth out.That was Albus' brother, and Gellert couldn't really do anything to Aberforth.

The potion of youth seems to be really miraculous. Gellert can feel that after taking the potion of youth that Severus used for experiment, his physical condition is getting better and better.It's like returning to adolescence, full of energy.

And the self in the mirror is seventeen or eighteen years old, the more I look at it, the more it seems like a dream.When facing the sleeping Dumbledore, Gellert often even has a sense of trance.It's like before they were in that accident, Dumbledore was taking a nap in front of him, and he would wake up the next moment, then look at him, say "good afternoon" to him, or discuss magic intensely together, saying With their different viewpoints, they collide with sparks of wisdom.

However, when you come back to your senses, you will find that this is Alfred's Castle, not their summer meadow, nor under that tree, or in Godric's Hollow.

I don't know when Dumbledore will wake up, maybe the next second, maybe he is willing to sleep and not wake up.But Gellert himself was willing to wait as long as he was by his side.

I have been waiting for so many years, and I don't care about the slightest.And Merlin would always hear his call to wake Dumbledore up.Or before Merlin heard it, Albus heard it himself, and then he didn't want to sleep any more, opened his eyes, and they could be together.

Speaking of which, as soon as Stephanie came back, Bert and Severus were reunited as a family.It is estimated that I am busy with where to go to play now, and no one pays attention to this small corner.

Gellert was also happy to be quiet at this time.He enjoyed every moment he had with Albus, and even now that Albus was just asleep, he felt at peace.

The kid Alberez has grown up, and he is very similar but not very similar to him back then.In terms of appearance, Alberez is the most like him among the children of his generation; in terms of personality, Alberez is much more mature than him at his age.

Gellert is confident that Alberes and the little girl from Alfred's family will not delay others, and they will not have any problems.Because Alberez is a serious and smart person, and this kind of smartness is real wisdom.Always find problems and solve them correctly.Never play tricks, don't try to show off.Sometimes I really wonder if this is a child, because it is not frivolous.

"Al, when you wake up, you can take a look at these juniors together. They have all grown up, and your students even sent invitations, asking you to marry them. Although you are still asleep, if you don't wake up in time , I will go instead of you." Dumbledore likes excitement, peace, and tranquility... He will never want to miss the maturity and growth of his own students.

"You have been asleep for a long time, and you don't even know what the current wizarding world is like. This world has undergone earth-shaking changes, and I really want to take you to see it." Gellert began to mutter to himself, To communicate with Dumbledore.

"It's sunny today..." Gellert said for a long time, and said in different directions, his blue eyes seemed to be filled with starlight.

Gellert stopped when he said he was tired.It was supposed to ask the house-elf to bring a glass of water, but Gellert stared at Dumbledore's sleeping face in silence for a long, long time.Then I decided to grab a glass of water by myself and bring in a new book.

After Gellert stood up and turned around, Dumbledore's eyelashes fluttered a few times, and those eyes opened.
