Category 2 : Love letter

Entry 2 :

Dear Ron,

I'm not sure if you'll ever read this letter, but I had to put my feelings into words. You see, I have loved you for a long time, longer than I care to admit. And I can't go on pretending that my feelings for you are just platonic.

You drive me absolutely mad sometimes, with your jokes and your laziness and your stubbornness. But at the same time, you make me laugh like no one else can, you surprise me with your kindness, and you are always there for me when I need you.

I love the way your eyes crinkle when you smile, and the way your hair sticks up in the morning. I love the way you never take yourself too seriously, and the way you always make me feel better when I'm feeling down.

I know we've had our ups and downs, Ron, and I know that I haven't always been the easiest person to be around. But I hope you know that my love for you is real, and that I am willing to work through any challenges that come our way.

I want to spend the rest of my life with you, Ron, through the good times and the bad. I want to be your partner, your confidante, your friend, and your lover. I hope that you feel the same way, and that we can build a future together.

Yours always,

Hermione

Category 4 : Be 'Rita Skeeter'

Entry 2 :

Hello, my dear readers! Rita Skeeter here, bringing you the latest gossip from the wizarding world.

Have you heard the latest scandal? It seems that the Minister of Magic himself has been caught in a compromising situation with one of his junior employees. Yes, you heard it right. The honorable minister, who has always portrayed himself as a champion of morality, has been exposed as a hypocrite.

But that's not all. I have also uncovered evidence that suggests the Order of the Phoenix, the so-called defenders of the wizarding world, have been working secretly with dark wizards. Shocking, isn't it?

Stay tuned for more juicy tidbits from yours truly. Trust me, my dear readers, there's never a dull moment in the wizarding world when Rita Skeeter is around!

Entry 6 :

Tom Riddle desperately wanted to be the Chosen One. To be chosen by the Elder Wand had become his greatest obsession. He could kill and torture infinite number of people just to acquire it. But, never in his life did he expect the wand to choose him like this.

The killing curse jetted out of Tom's wand, rebounded from Harry's Elder Wand and hit Tom's cold chest. It was almost a déjà vu of what had happened sixteen years earlier when Tom Riddle disappeared for the first time. The green light sucked Tom's soul out of his body and put it into a dreamless sleep. When Tom woke up, he did not have his body anymore, but he could hear faint whispers.

“Are you sure?” said a boy in his gruff voice.

“I think Harry’s right,” said a girl. Who were they?

“That wand’s more trouble than it’s worth. And quite honestly. I’ve had enough trouble for a lifetime,” said Harry Potter. Tom Riddle knew his nemesis's voice.

Moments later, the prison that held the last piece of Tom Riddle, was put back into Dumbledore's grave. The Elder Wand had sucked Tom's soul and chosen him for an eternity. Now he was trapped forever in the grave of the man he used to fear the most.

Entry 7:

Minerva McGonagall filled her glass with the worst scotch she managed to get her hands on. Tonight, she wanted to drown her sorrows and not enjoy a second of it. Her senses may have been blurred but the sharp memories pricked at her heart.

She had always been prepared for Harry Potter’s arrival, and knew he would be a tiny package of trouble. But that smile - the sheepish look when he realized she had witnessed him sneaking out - had caught her completely off-guard.

“Run, Padfoot! She is right behind us…”

“Aw, you know how to make a man blush, Minnie…”

“Professor McGonagall, thank you for saving those two idiots.”

“I did not do anything ma’am. It was their idea.”

She sipped her scotch, trying to wash down the bile rising in her throat. She had not remembered the past since that fateful night, when everything she held dear crumbled to dust.

Her eyes fell on the body-sized mirror and widened at the sight. Four young figures in Gryffindor robes, glowing despite the lack of light in the room, stared back at her. Those mischievous eyes, those guilty smiles were too familiar. Time stilled as she watched them open their mouths to speak.

“Thank you for everything…mom,” it whispered.

She blinked once and the apparition disappeared, the mirror reflecting her haggard appearance. Tears rolled down her cheeks and a sob escaped her mouth. Yes, tonight she just wanted to feel the pain for the last time.

Entry 2 :

He was gone.

There was no longer who completed the sentences.

There was no longer someone who finished his jokes.

There was no longer someone who had the most brilliant ideas for the shop.

Fred was gone and George felt dead, just like him.

They say the twins feel each other's pain but George had never felt so much pain as now. Is this what it feels like when you don't have someone to share your life with? When half of you is gone? It was as if the whole world had suddenly shut down.

An unnatural silence had enveloped the environment around him. He no longer heard curses thrown from all sides, he no longer heard explosions or people screaming, he no longer heard anything.

He touched Fred's hand, hoping like a child that it was a joke and that as soon as he touched it, Fred would stand up screaming to scare him or push him to make him fall.

But it didn't happen. His brother was cold as marble.

And at that very moment George felt like Fred too: motionless, lifeless, terribly cold.

Entry 1 :

Dear Harry,

As I sit down to write this letter, my heart is overflowing with love for you. I don't know where to begin, or how to put into words all the emotions that I'm feeling. But I'm going to try.

From the moment I first saw you, I knew there was something special about you. You were brave and kind, and even though you were famous, you never let it go to your head. You treated everyone with respect, even those who didn't deserve it. I was in awe of you.

As we grew closer, I realized that you were not just the famous Harry Potter, but a kind, funny, and caring person. You listened to me when I talked, you made me laugh when I was feeling down, and you were always there for me, even when I didn't know I needed you.

I fell in love with you slowly, gradually, like a flower blooming in the spring. And now my love for you is a fire that burns bright and strong, never fading or dimming.

You have faced so much darkness in your life, Harry, and yet you have always come out the other side. You are the bravest person I know, and I am so proud to be by your side.

I know that we have faced our own challenges, but I believe that our love can conquer anything. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, Harry, and face whatever challenges may come our way together.

With all my love,

Ginny

Entry 3:

“When did you know I was also in love with you?”

“You remember when you were poisoned during our sixth year at Hogwarts?”

“Yes –“

“Well, I remember being in the hospital surrounded by our loved ones, worried to death at the possibility of anything happening to you, and then you took me by surprise.”

“Huh, what did I do?”

“You took my name. Just my name. Even if it was just a whisper, it was the loudest proclamation to prove how much I meant to you, no matter what state you were in. You needed me to be there at your lowest. And in that moment, I swear I lived a million times.”

“Well, when did you know you loved me?”

“I guess, during the end of the fourth year. You helped bridge the gap when Harry and I were being absolute nutheads and made us reconsider our friendship. And when I got insecure over Victor Krum, I admit I did not actually think you would go off to him, but I somehow knew something had changed between us, and that subconsciously maybe I had started counting you as someone who I did not need to ask to be there, but would always be there for me. I spent a year keeping those feelings to myself, and then I thought you did not like me back so went to Lavender.”

“God bless her poor soul; she really faced a brave death in the Wizarding War.”

Entry 13:

Unhealed Wounds

2 May, 1999

Andromeda visits the grave of Nymphadora and Remus. She flicks her wand, and bouquet appears on both of their graves. Tears stroll down her cheeks. Someone puts their hand on Andromeda. Narcissa turns around and sees it’s her sister. Her expression changes and she becomes stern. “What are you doing here?” asks Andromeda. “Came to see Bella, and also you.” told Andromeda with sadness and regret.

“Well I don’t want to see you.” stated Andromeda bluntly. “Can’t you forgive me Andromeda?” I know my family supported the dark lord, but we realized our mistake and switched sides. I saved Potter’s life. We both have lost people in this war. Now I just want my sister back.” expressed Narcissa tearfully. Andromeda smiles mockingly. “You say you lost people in the war? Whom did you lose? Bella? The bitch who killed my daughter?” asks Andromeda sarcastically. “I know what she did was wrong but…” Narcissa tries to explain but Andromeda snaps her in middle.

”You still don’t realize what you did Narcissa. You disowned me. Just like the rest of our family. And after thirty years, after losing everything, you want me to act like nothing happened? You still care about Bellatrix, someone who killed my daughter. You supported Voldemort. Because of whom my whole family died. You want me to forget all that?” shouts Andromeda in anger. Narcissa has no reply. Andromeda walks away as she cries. Narcissa breaks down with her knees falling on the ground.
