[HP] Can you be gentle with me

What a beautiful morning.

Petunia thinks they made the right choice to come here for the weekend.

She glanced back at her husband who was still sleeping soundly on the big bed, and the cute little blond boy lying on the side, her son.

She felt very happy--

"Wow───"

The sudden crying almost made her jump up, and the sound obviously disturbed the two people who were still sleeping on the bed. Her husband's reaction was to jump up from the bed in shock, and looked around nervously. Then, he met her eyes in confusion.

"Mom—" The little blond boy also woke up, and from his sleepy and obviously unhappy expression, it can be seen that he doesn't like to be woken up. "Noisy!" He pouted, stretching out his hands for a hug.

This volume is really not small.

And Petunia could tell that it was definitely the cry of a child. She walked forward quickly, picked up her son, comforted her son for a while, and then handed it to her husband before speaking. "Vernon, I'll go and see..."

The man known as Vernon nodded, and then took over her previous task with peace of mind, continuing to make the little boy happy.

The crying continued.

Petunia couldn't help but feel annoyed, and had a bad impression of the parent who let the child cry early in the morning and didn't care about anything. When she stepped into the corridor, she realized that the crying was coming from the room next to them. Yeah, no wonder it's so loud...

After knocking on the door as politely as possible, Petunia waited quietly.

nobody?

She was puzzled.

Could it be that there are no adults in there at all?Perhaps it was because of this that the child who was left alone in the room cried like this──

God, that parent is really irresponsible, isn't it?

If it was her, she would never leave Dudley for half a step. The child is her life, and she has always believed that any child is everything to his parents...

"Is anyone there?" She knocked on the door again, this time speaking. "Hello?"

The crying stopped abruptly.

Petunia originally thought that this was the end of the matter, maybe the parents inside found out that someone had come to protest, so they were finally willing to appease the children, but it wasn't.

It's not far off.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, the door was knocked a few times, very lightly, if it wasn't because it was morning, she probably wouldn't have noticed.

"Hello?" She stopped and called out tentatively.

There was another burst of thunderous crying, but the difference was that this time it was accompanied by an excited pounding on the door, which really scared Petunia.

What's going on here?

I vaguely feel that something is wrong, could it be that the child inside was kidnapped?Oh my god, when she thought of this, she said nothing and went back to her room as if nothing had happened, and hurriedly ran towards the counter downstairs...

To her surprise, after hearing her report, the staff at the counter hurriedly grabbed the key and followed her and opened the door. What they saw was an unconscious woman lying on the ground, and an unknown woman. The black-haired little boy who stood beside him in a daze was already hoarse from crying.

It turned out that there were no irresponsible parents at all, but an accident...

The bad impression of the adult with the child disappeared in an instant, replaced by deep sympathy.

She is alone with a child.

The ambulance was on its way, and the paramedics rushed the woman into the car, but the boy—

No one knew what to do with him... Those medical staff were already busy enough, how could they have the time to take care of him?

For some unknown reason, Petunia spoke suddenly. "Let me look at this child first." Even though she was shocked when she said this.

But it was obviously inappropriate to say the words of repentance now, she smiled and knelt down beside the boy. "My son is about the same age as him, I think I can help take a look...I will take him to the hospital to see his mother later—"

Several medical staff looked at each other for a while, then nodded.After all, they really had to rush back to the hospital. The situation of the woman who fell on the ground just now was not optimistic...

It was true that there was no trauma, but after the preliminary examination, the woman's body was so weak that they were shocked.

"Thank you, ma'am," said one of them, nodding again to Petunia before leading the others away in a hurry.

Petunia remained where she was, maintaining a squatting posture, staring at the little black-haired boy who was also left in the room.

It seems that she got a good hand──

"What's your name, child?" she asked.

Although Harry knew very little vocabulary, he still understood Petunia's question and spoke timidly. "Harry."

"Harry..." Petunia held out a hand reassuringly. "Don't be afraid, your mother will be fine—"

Harry grabbed the hand reflexively, tilting his head.

Mother?

Seeing the puzzled expression of the little boy in front of her, Petunia also became puzzled, but she didn't think about it any further, and squatted down, thinking about taking Harry back to their room and explaining the situation to Vernon. "Harry, I'm Petunia, can you stay with us first, okay? I think you'll be glad to meet Dudley, he should be around your age."

The boy blinked, and Petunia suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu, as if she had seen it somewhere before—no, it's impossible, to drive that weird thought out of her head, she said again. "In a few days, I'll take you to find your mother again, okay?"

"Looking for Tahlia?" Harry still tilted his head.And Petunia didn't know until now that the woman who just fell to the ground was named Tahlia.

Can't help but frown.

This familiar illusion again...

"Looking for Tahlia." Harry nodded to himself, said softly, looked around for a while, then dragged his small blue backpack off the bed, and began to stuff some of the dolls he had scattered on the floor into. Go, suddenly, he stopped and stared blankly at something on the ground.

Petunia felt strange, and walked forward slowly...

But before she had time to see the things on the ground, she saw that Harry had put something in his backpack and quickly zipped it up. Then, she turned around and looked at herself expectantly.

"Let's go..." she said, deciding not to ask any further questions, then naturally took Harry's hand and walked out of the room.

Two days later, after Vernon had to go back to work and took Dudley away first, Petunia was notified by the hospital that the woman had woken up, and she didn't waste any time, hurriedly packed her things and took Dudley with her. Harry rushed to the hospital.

After knocking on the door of the woman's ward a few times, Petunia led Harry to open the door and walked in, only to find that the atmosphere inside was extremely strange.

The woman sat on the hospital bed with a dark face, glaring angrily at a medical staff beside her.

This was not what she had envisioned.

"Excuse me...?" She asked cautiously.

"Ah, this lady... are you this lady's friend?" The medical staff turned their heads the moment they heard Petunia's voice, as if seeing rescuers coming. "Can you persuade her for me?"

"Persuading what?" Petunia asked with a puzzled look.

"Did you make a mistake?" the woman said coldly, facing the medical staff. "I don't know her, even if I do, don't expect her to convince me—"

"And I said no!" The medical staff turned around, and it took a lot of effort to keep from roaring. "Unless it is harmful to your body, it is absolutely impossible for the hospital to abort you for no reason──"

Petunia was listening on the sidelines, and fell into a complete daze after understanding the meaning of their conversation. It took a while to react, and she couldn't restrain her emotions for a while, and asked in a sharp voice. "Are you going to take the baby?"

Tahlia cast a sharp look over in an instant. "I suppose it's none of your business, lady..."

"It's none of my business." Petunia felt unusually angry.She never thought that someone in this world could say so plainly that she wanted to kill an innocent life. "But your behavior is murder at all! Is the child something you can just say no to?"

"That was a mistake." Tahlia said coldly. "Besides, you really care too much."

"Tahlia!"

Petunia was about to say something more, but Harry, who was following behind her, couldn't bear it any longer, rushed to Tahlia's side excitedly, and yelled.

To her surprise, after seeing Harry, Tahlia didn't show the joy she imagined seeing her own child, but just looked at the child bouncing around her indifferently...

This made her even more unacceptable.

"Since you hate your child so much, you should have thought it through!" She accused displeasedly.

The whole atmosphere froze in an instant, although it was already embarrassing enough.

"Tahlia!" Harry didn't remain silent because of the weird atmosphere, but he opened his small backpack on his own, took out a long and thin thing, and handed it to Tahlia.

Tahlia was taken aback for a moment, then immediately reached out to take it and held it tightly.

"Harry is not my son." After a while, she spoke slowly to Petunia. "If you mean this—"

Petunia frowned.

She vaguely felt that something was wrong...

"Who the hell are you?" After a pause, Tahlia continued speaking slowly.

"PetuniaDursley." Only then did Petunia realize that what she said just now was really nosy, after all they didn't even know each other's name before. "I……"

Tahlia cut her off directly with a raised hand. "Anyway, I appreciate you looking after Harry for me."

"It's nothing..." Petunia said dryly.

Tahlia nodded, and continued arguing with the paramedic, ignoring Petunia's point of view.

It seems that there should be nothing about her.

Petunia pouted.

She had a feeling of why she had to find something to do these days, and in the end she made herself unhappy... Although Harry is a quiet kid, he still caused them some trouble, especially──

Especially this woman named Tahlia is able to say such cruel words so nonchalantly...

"If I were you, I would never want to take this child away..." Finally, Petunia couldn't help but interrupted Tahlia who was about to say something.

"Sorry?" Tahlia raised her eyebrows, turning around, she thought Petunia had left here long ago.

"As I said earlier, you have no right to decide whether your child lives or dies. No matter how you say it, life is precious." Petunia said stiffly. "Even if we don't know each other, I still hope you can think carefully──"

Thinking of his son, he even uncontrollably began to imagine how handsome he would be when he grows up... The expression on his face softened unconsciously. "There is no luckier thing in the world than watching your own children grow up under your own care..."

"Lucky?" Tahlia froze suddenly, looked at Petunia blankly, and murmured. "You say this...lucky?"

Tahlia suddenly remembered that she had seen the look on Petunia's face a long time ago.

At that time, the red-haired woman in front of her was full of smiles, looking forward to the birth of her child happily.

lucky?

Tahlia turned her face away, but just in time to see Harry staring at her with those green eyes, making her seem to hear Lily's voice again for a moment.

"You are really lucky..." she murmured.

Slowly raising her head, she took another look at the medical staff and Petunia, tightly clenched her wand that she had just brought back from Harry, and took a deep breath. "You meddle too much."

"What—" Petunia just uttered a word in confusion, and was hit by a light green light beam, and the medical staff on the side were not spared, and the next second, both of them fell to the ground.

"Harry, let's go." Tahlia sat up from the bed, took Harry's hand, deliberately ignored her somewhat vain footsteps, and left the ward directly.

And in April of the following year, she had to take Harry to a small hospital somewhere for help under the intense pain. She held a crumpled, dark-haired child in front of her face.

"Nigel," she said weakly, the first name that came to mind. "His name is Nigel...Nigel Snape."

Then she didn't have time to do anything, her eyes went dark and she fell into a coma.
