Lily wasn't quite sure to process everything Sirius had told her and James. Here, she'd been so worried about Harry since her arrival here the other day. Now she had just learned that Harry was left on his own, just weeks from the moment she'd been pulled to this place. Her son had grown up an orphan. Lily understood that they weren't at fault. She understood that it was good that Harry had lived, but she hated the idea that he'd grown up all alone. She hated knowing that she'd had to leave him. Bloody Voldemort. Lily felt a surge of anger go through her as she thought about it. She kicked at the rock in front of her on the path and her fingers curled around her wand. In her temper, it was tempting to destroy something, but that wasn't her. Taking a few deep breaths, she tried to calm herself. She was so angry, though, and sad. Going into hiding was supposed to keep them all safe. Lily had always believed the cause of the Order of the Phoenix was worth dying for. She didn't regret for an instant the idea that she'd given her life so her son might live. No matter how she hated the idea that he'd grown up without them, Lily would do it again in an instant. She would do anything for her darling baby boy. No matter all of that, she'd never really thought it would end like that. She'd always believed the Order would triumph, that she and James would give Harry younger siblings and they'd all live happily ever after. How foolish she'd been. |
