At what point in your life have you been most proud?
I have been proud, most proud when I saw or at least I think when I realised what Ron, Hermione, Ginny , Neville and Luna had done in the Department of Mysteries.
How none of them were dead. How they had all held their own against those Death Eaters, they had battled them the same as any grown witch or wizard could have.
And we…almost won.
I taught them those things , those spells, and they worked.
Neville…he cant do the simplest of hexes in class but that night he was different, he tired so hard.
Don’t get any of this confused. I still do anything I can not to think about that night.
But they were with me, I wasn’t on my own for once, I knew that they were there to help me, to save me if I needed it.
Despite the pang of anger , the punch….the sledge hammer to the stomache of pain that the memory is , I am and always will be so proud of them for it. All of it.
That they didn’t even seem afraid, and I was shaking.
