Thue, Feb10, 1987

It's raining again today.I woke up listening to the pattering rain outside, and thought I was in that leaky room in a trance.But when I opened my eyes and saw the snow-white ceiling, not the moldy wallpaper, I woke up completely. This is not my home, I have no home anymore.

Wen, Feb 18, 1987

From the window, I saw a little boy weeding in the yard of the opposite family.He lay awkwardly on the ground, occasionally helping the glasses frame that had slipped from the bridge of his nose.A fat boy suddenly jumped out and pushed him to the ground, laughing wildly and ran away.And the thin boy could only get up by himself and continue working.

I thought maybe he was adopted, like me.

Thur, Mar5, 1987

I saw that boy again at school.

Someone stole my lunch and laughed at my shabbiness.

"That's what they are," said the boy, "maybe because you're a freshman—I'm Harry, Harry Potter"

"Margaret" I whispered "I thought your name was Dursley"

"What? No." There was a look of disgust on his face. "Of course I'm not a Dursley. There's only one Dursley in this school - I think that's enough."

"Are you new here?" He restrained his expression and showed a shy and friendly smile again

我 点点 头

"Where are you from?" he asked

"France" I whisper

"France? That's far enough." He was a little surprised. "Then why did you come here? I mean, very few people immigrate here."

I didn't speak.

I didn't tell him that I was adopted, I don't know what state of mind I was in at the time, I seemed to subconsciously avoid telling him about it.

But he still knows

That Dursley saw us sitting and chatting on the swing in the park, and he rushed up and pushed Harry away

"Harry, it looks like you've found your new friend?" He grinned maliciously. "You two are a perfect match - neither has parents!"

Before Harry even had time to get up, he looked at me in astonishment.As if stung by this gaze, I stood up.

"You must have a lot in common," Dudley was still saying.

"That's enough! Dudley" Harry stood up from the ground, he straightened the frames of his glasses with disgust on his face, "Stop showing off your pitiful upbringing!"

"Hey! It seems you don't want to eat dinner again?" Dudley's tall figure suddenly covered Harry, and Harry stretched his body tightly like a small animal, showing no sign of weakness.

Dudley looked like he was going to make a move in the next second. I don't know where the courage came from. Maybe Harry didn't look at me strangely. Maybe it was because I knew that Harry had no parents like me. Small pebbles were thrown at him.

Dudley cried out in pain, Hariri's eyes were filled with surprise and a kind of joyful flash, he grabbed my hand before Dudley could react and ran wildly in one direction, with Dudley roaring behind him.

The scenery around me became a phantom and retreated at a high speed, everything happened unexpectedly, only he held my hand tightly and exuded real heat.

His black messy hair was blown by the wind from our running, and I was always one step behind him, so he turned to look at me, his face was flushed from running, and his green eyes were full of smiles , hooked curvedly, like two cute little crescents.

We ran to a small lake deep in the park, and he let go of my hand panting heavily, and laughed heartily during the process.I don't know what he's laughing at, but this kind of joy seems to be contagious through the air, I laughed despite the disordered breathing, and met his pair of green eyes full of vitality that seemed to fill the entire forest.

In the end, we sat on the grass by the lake and chatted here and there. He didn’t ask me about my parents, and I didn’t ask him either. We both carefully guarded each other’s fragility.

I used the money I had secretly saved for a long time to buy him a coat, a brand new coat that belonged only to him.

I waited for him by the small lake in the park. I waited too long, and I sat on the ground when I was tired from standing, holding the packed coat in my hand.

"Sorry, I'm late." Harry stopped breathlessly. "Dudley has been pestering me for a long time before I let him go."

"It's okay." I stood up and handed him the package in my hand with some anticipation. "Happy birthday, Harry"

His eyes lit up all of a sudden, and he couldn't believe it, "How do you know that today is my birthday, Margo?"

"I saw it in the student handbook at school" I laughed "Get your birthday present"

"Oh, really, I mean, uh" He took it frantically, then took a deep breath and looked at me "This is my first birthday present, thank you Margo"

The look in his eyes made my cheeks burn, and my heart was jumping with joy. I pretended to be calm, but the curvature of the corners of my mouth couldn't be suppressed. I said, "Hurry up and open your birthday present and have a look."

He nodded happily, carefully unwrapped the package, and unfolded the blue plaid coat.He couldn't wait to put it on "I like it very much, thank you Margo"

"This is the second time you've thanked me." I smiled and looked at his gleaming eyes, and slowed down my voice, "Happy birthday, Harry"

Wed, Aug3, 1987

Harry later remembered to ask me about my birthday, and regretted that he hadn't prepared it in advance.

"It's okay, anyway, our birthdays are only one day away" I said easily

"Your birthday is our birthday together"

"How can it be the same?" Harry's eyes widened. "I should have prepared your birthday present in advance."

"But it's over," I reminded, and I couldn't bear to add, seeing Harry's eyes and eyebrows drooping. "You can fix it for me, right now? How about it?"

"But I didn't prepare a birthday present" he was pitiful

"I want to make a wish." I ignored his words, folded my hands together solemnly, and half-closed my eyes, "God, I hope that I can spend my next birthday with Harry, please promise me this request."

Harry was amused by me, he was grinning, looking goofy.

"This is what I want for my birthday" I also laughed "We will spend our birthdays together in the future"

Sun, Apr5, 1988

It was literally the most exciting thing I've ever done.

At night, after Mr. Dean and Mrs. Dean fell asleep, I sneaked from the room to the kitchen, took out the food I hid in the morning, and then sneaked to No. 4 Privet Drive opposite.

I ran to the window on the side of the house and squatted down. After a while, the window was carefully opened.

"Margot" Harry lowered his voice

"It's me, Harry," I responded softly, passing what was in my hand through the window.

He fumbled to take it, his warm fingers slid across my palm.

I heard the sound of wrapping paper being torn

"Would you like to eat?" he asked

I shook my head, and suddenly realized that he couldn't see my movements at the moment, so I lowered my voice and said "I'm not hungry"

"I dream every day that a relative picks me up," he said, "but no, no one takes me out of here"

"I will definitely leave here in the future," he said firmly.

I didn't speak, just listened quietly

"And you, Margo, do you want to leave?" he asked me

"I don't know" I lower my eyes "I don't know where I can go"

"Maybe you have relatives in France," he guessed, "will you return to France in the future?"

I didn't speak, the tie that connected me to France was broken, and I couldn't think of anything in France that I could miss.

"When I first came to England I wanted to go back" I said softly "but she said daddy is here and she's coming to find my daddy"

I said this sentence almost calmly, but the ending still couldn't help trembling.

Harry stopped chewing, he was silent for a while, and then said softly "I don't even know what my parents look like, I sometimes think, why don't you take me in the car too, it's better than staying in the car." Good here"

He was comforting me, comforting me with his pain.

I stood up, there was a window between us, but our hearts were close.I leaned in through the window and hugged him.

He didn't react for a while, and then he smiled and hugged me back.

"Look, Margot, the moon is so beautiful tonight"

I didn't follow his eyes to see the moon, but stared into his eyes full of moonlight——

My moon is here.

Mon, May 9, 1989

Tonight's food delivery was almost discovered——

"Who's where?"

Dudley leaned out of the upstairs window and I couldn't dodge enough to meet his eyes.

"Dada baby, who are you talking about?"

I thought he was going to yell right away for Harry to be punished again, but he just stared at me for a moment before closing the window again.

"It's nothing, Mom, I was wrong"

Harry also patted his chest with lingering fear, "Fortunately he didn't see you"

I nodded hesitantly.
