prefect.” Remus looked at the floor in shame.
"And both of you, don't grin so stupidly or do you want to keep Potter company for the near future." The grin faded and they swallowed. With that she turned to Harry.
"Everything OK?" McGonagall asked him.
"Yes ... actually almost nothing happened." Harry uttered. At the same time, he bowed his head slightly and did not look at her.
"Really?" she asked.
Harry nodded. Then he bent down and put his things back in his pocket. He shouldered her as he slipped past the professor. He didn't look at the others as he passed either. Hardly a few seconds later he was gone.
"And before I forget. Fifty points from Gryffindor."After the testimony, she rushed off with her cape billowing.
Flashback end
Harry closed his eyes. He didn't want to think about it anymore. That was wrong. That was a lie. That was ... the real truth. Then nothing. Hard as the truth was to endure. And it was precisely this realization that made disappointment flare up in him. He couldn't muster up any more pride. Not in connection with his father. No more. He couldn't look up at him. Not after what happened now. Harry wondered how it could even happen that he looked up at him. After all, he had never known him. It was pure fantasy ... or wishful thinking? Did he want his father to be like that? Had he been so blind and naive talking about his father?
Even back when he was little, he had thought about what it would be like to have parents. Had he already formed his own image of his parents back then, without reflecting reality?Had it gotten stuck in his head by now, bouncing off all the real facts? Would it be possible?
His head ached and his hand slipped to his forehead. He couldn't use a headache now. He had to stop thinking about it so much. Nothing would change that anyway. As much as he wished it would. And so he drifts sadly into sleep.

(*) Harry last name. Not its right. He's still a Potter. ^^ "Mave ... Harry Mave ... Harold Mave ... * brooding * Can you leave it like that? ^^" Nothing sensible to me. I'm not so concerned with names (especially surnames) ... Hehe ~ ^^ "" I'll write more about it in a chapter. ;)
