On the table is a small crystal bottle in which pearly white memories swirl.I didn't think much, just got into the crystal bottle as if I knew what to do.

The surrounding scenery blurred like ink blots, then solidified and formed, and the picture became stable and clear.

a classroom. The 15-year-old Rowena sat in the first row of the classroom, looking up at the man standing on the podium and talking, his eyes were full of sincere admiration and admiration. At the end of a class, Rowena took the lead in applauding.The person on the podium cast a positive look.

……

Christmas. "What should I do? You go!" "No, I blush when I talk to him." There was a burst of laughter. "Let Rowena go, she won't blush, and she is his 'protégé'!"

Rowena stood at the door of the teachers' lounge, holding a Christmas present at a loss, put it down, and was just about to walk away when the door opened.

……

Rowena and that person walked side by side by the sea, talking very speculatively.The azure sea washes against the coast, and there are white waves like piles of gauze.

……

Rowena slumped down on the armchair in front of the window with a pale face, and said in shock: "How is it possible? Why did he get married? I've never heard of him having a fiancée!"

"Yeah, neither have I!" Another girl said regretfully, "I heard from them that he never came back. His fiancée is a Muggle, so although they got engaged very early, they never got married." Married. What a pity, so talented, to give up his wand for love. I had an aunt who was like that..."

The girl was still babbling about her aunt, but Rowena couldn't listen at all.

……

It seems like a long time.

night.Rowena is no longer a student, she walks on the streets of Greece, her expression is almost exactly the same as now, only perhaps younger.

A large group of Muggles rushed out of the alley and ran towards the square, shouting as they ran, "Go and see, the witch has been caught again! Wizards are being burned in the square!"

Rowena's heart trembled, and with doubts, she followed the crowd to the square.

He is the one at the stake!And his unconscious wife, with a newborn baby in a cradle at her feet.

Rowena apparated to the high stake.

"Torn apart!" The iron chain snapped, and the man tied to the stake staggered and almost fell.

"Witch! Another witch!" screamed horror from the crowd, and angry Muggles started throwing stones and burning logs.

Thick smoke billowed, and the red flames reflected the entire night sky red.

"Come with me!"

"It's useless, Rowena, you go away, apparation can't take my wife away, I want to guard her."

"You will die!"

"I know."

"Then I'll take you out!"

"Impossible. I don't have a wand anymore. You go, I just ask you to take my daughter, who has talents like ours.

"Her name is Helena.

"If you can, please don't tell her anything.

"Don't make her fall in love with Muggles.

"Let's go—" He pushed her sharply.

Tears poured out of her eyes, and Rowena's heart seemed to be torn open, she turned around suddenly, tears poured down, and her whole body disappeared in a dazzling white light.

"Rowena! I'm sorry—" He seemed to suddenly think of something, and shouted into the void, but she couldn't hear her anymore.

Tears "popped" onto the hot ground.

……

Rowena covered her face with a hood, and with a baby hidden in the cloak, she hurried along the narrow alley.She hovered in front of a house, peeping carefully, and then looked at the baby in her arms.Put the swaddle on the ground, then slowly back away, take two steps away, then go back, leave with determination, but look back again.Suddenly footsteps sounded, and Rowena panicked and picked up the baby and fled into the dark.The door opened, and a kind-looking middle-aged woman looked out wonderingly, but didn't find anything unusual, then closed the door.

Rowena hugged the baby to her chest, and was absent-minded for a long time, as if she had finally made up her mind to disapparate while holding the baby.

……

Eight-year-old Helena watched her cousin unwrap his birthday present with envy.I timidly asked what day my birthday was.

Rowena's face showed a fleeting blankness, but he immediately calmed down and fabricated a date.

……

Helga taught Rowena how to bake biscuits by hand, mocking her for being able to read difficult spells but being defeated by a sack of flour.

……

"Wh, what?" Rowena turned pale with shock, almost lost her footing, grabbed the nearest chair and sat down, "You, you said Helena—by, by..."

Helga nodded gravely.

Rowena's chest was heaving violently, clutching her neckline and panting heavily, she bent down on the back of the chair.

"Ro—Rowena, are you okay? Don't worry, she's fine, she's just frightened, and I've got Mrs. Weil with her! She's fine!"

Startled, Helga patted Rowena on the back and handed her a glass of water.

Rowena pushed Helga's hand away, stood up recklessly, and said, "No—that's not enough! I'm going to see her! Is she in the school hospital? I have to stay with her!"

"Don't get excited! Calm down Rowena, you can't see her like this, I'll find medicine for you first!" Helga said in panic, and Rowena staggered out of the room.

"Ms. Weir!" Rowena almost trotted through the gate of the school hospital, "Is she here?"

"Shhh" Ms. Weir pressed her index finger to her lips and motioned her to keep her voice down. "Poor child, she has a total breakdown and needs to rest now. I just gave her some tranquilizers and she is now asleep." .”

Rowena looked at the girl who was already asleep in the hospital bed, and shook her head in pain: "It's my fault, it's all my fault, I couldn't protect her well even at school..." She closed her eyes, tears overflowing, Flowing down her beautiful face.

……

Rowena leaned on the bed and leaned against the cushion, and the quill pen drew delicate ink marks on the parchment: Dear Alger, something happened to Helena, come and see her.At this time, someone needs to be with her, but my asthma attack again.If you can accompany her, I will feel at ease.

……

Paris was sitting by the stream, seriously reading a thick book, with a gentle look, and a young girl was leaning on his lap.Rowena looked behind the tree, as if comparing it with the face in memory, then frowned.There was a flash of light, and when she came out from behind the tree, she had turned into a stooped old woman, holding a basket of roses in her hand.

"Young man, buy a flower and give it to your beloved girl."

"How can there be roses this season?" the boy frowned.

"Maybe it's specially bred." The girl shrugged indifferently, sniffed the roses, and said, "Terrence, I want one."

"As long as you like, I can give it to you every day," the boy smiled, and bought twelve roses from Rowena.

……

Terrence?I muttered to myself.In an instant, I seemed to be hit by something, and I seemed to have missed some key details.Yet the scene continues to change.

……

"...I think it's time to think about your marriage." Helena rushed out of the room crying before she finished speaking.Rowena clutched the comb tightly and looked at the mirror absently, all her composure and indifference collapsed in an instant, and she lay down on the dressing table and almost trembled from crying.

She loathed herself more than she did now.

……

Rowena leaned on the pillow wearily, and said: "She will definitely hate me, please, find her for me and bring her back, I...I...I have something very important to tell her face to face, this I owe it to her. Please find her and tell her that no matter how much she hates me, she must... must... I must tell her what her father left behind. Also, she is my daughter, a real daughter, no niece."

Barrow knelt in front of Rowena's bed. This gloomy young man's eyes became moist. He nodded and said, "I swear I will bring her back, I swear to you. Aunt Ravenclaw, please rest well. "

……

"Alger, I miss her, I want to see her," Rowena cried like a child, looking at Alger sadly, "Do you think she will never forgive me again?"

"No, Barrow will find her. She will come back to see you, Rowena, just wait." Alger didn't know how hard he tried to restrain himself from crying.

"I can't see it anymore," she closed her eyes and shook her head lightly, rubbing the letter.

……

"Mother—" I cried at the top of my lungs, but she couldn't hear me anymore.

You said that human intelligence is the greatest wealth of human beings. Why are you willing to be a fool when you have such wealth?

I knelt on the ground, kneeling in front of her.Why is the world still not destroyed?Why do I still exist in this world?Why can't you let me go?I would trade what I still have for a complete death.I'd give anything, any—any price to get me out of it all!

----【Transfer to third person】-------

The last scene is scattered, and the surroundings are darkened, only erratic ink stains.Helena slowly rose from memory and got out of the crystal bottle.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-"

The guests downstairs and Hayden heard a heart-piercing scream from upstairs, and rushed upstairs. What they saw was a transparent ghost, screaming at the top of its lungs, crazily pulling at its waist. hair, running wild, desperate to find a way to hurt himself.

"Helena! Helena! What's wrong—" Alger shouted and rushed up, as if trying to grab her, but accidentally bumped into the table.The crystal bottle placed on the edge shook twice, and the bottle containing Rowena's precious memories fell to the ground and shattered.Pearl-colored memories ooze out quickly, disappearing into the air forever like mist.

She wanted to cry, but couldn't shed a single tear.
