Chapter 35 - The boy they lied to - Final part

Harry looked at my hands and saw the cake. His eyes were shining and she quickly took a piece and began to eat it while crying. '' It tastes better than I imagined. '' He said while eating with one hand and wiping his tears with the other.

I quickly returned to my usual appearance. And I sat next to him while Harry tried to eat quickly and quietly as if someone was going to take the cake from him.

'' You don't have to worry about your cake being taken away. I gave them a drink to sleep and they won't wake up for at least 15 more minutes. '' I told Harry. With this he calmed down a bit and began to eat more normally. I waited for him to finish eating and was surprised Harry managed to eat half the cake.

At that I sighed and gave Harry the bag. He looked curiously at me first and then at the bag. So I said. ''It's for you. This bag is magical and has more space than it appears and also non-magical people cannot see it. Inside you will find preserved food. It is not the best but it will help you not to go hungry as before. It also contains a few potions that will help you when you hurt yourself.''

Harry quickly opened the bag and looked inside. When he saw food he was very happy. So he kept the bag in one of the corners to make sure it wouldn't be seen.

'' Harry my time with you is running out. Unfortunately the person who decided you would live here used powerful spells to make sure that no one found you or took you with them. That's why I can only come see you every year on your birthday. But before I go I have to give you a warning. Never take the bag I gave you out of this house, especially if you are near Arabella Figg. She is watching you at the request of that person so if possible try to interact as little as possible with her.''

Harry looked at me surprised and said. ''But she gives me food from time to time.''

I looked at him seriously and told him. ''If they find out that you have the bag or that someone visited you, they will probably leave you with a relative worse than the Dursleys.''

Hearing these words scared Harry. Thanks to this he nodded his head. Again I patted his head and told him. "See you next year Harry."

He just nodded and settled on his mattress. I quickly left the house in the same way that I had entered.

Once outside I met my great grandfather. He raised an eyebrow and ask me. ''And how is he?''

Again I sighed and answered him.

''He is very ill both physically and psychologically. He exploded in anger and there was hardly any magical reaction. Apparently what keeps the spells in this house is their own magic. Apparently they are constantly draining it. Besides, his muggle relatives abuse him very seriously. If it weren't for the magical drainage to which it is subjected I have no doubt that he would have already transformed into an obscurial.''

''Dumbledore is totally out of control. But it surprises me how he came up with how to deal with the possible transformation.'' My great grandfather answered me. He sounded tired and thoughtful.

"I think he already had experience with his sister's case if what is said is true." I answered a little anguished. Apparently not everything that was said about her was true. Now I wonder how much it was Dumbledore's influence that left her like this and if her death was really an accident.

Both my great grandfather and I began to wander in our thoughts. While he analyzed what what we have just discovered would entail. I was thinking about how to make Harry's stay more bearable. Maybe Kreacher and Harry can have some semblance of relationship at least to keep them company in these difficult times.

Things were getting darker with Dumbledore. And now my biggest question was. How was it possible that until now I can maintain that mask of the good old man who watches over everyone. Look at the starry sky at night and I am terrified of the difficulties that in a very few years we would have to face.
