Fire
****
On one of the last fine days in November I was upstairs, working my way through Hermione’s indoor list.

Tidying the attic.

I threw open a window, to let some light and fresh air in, only to choke on smoke, instead.

Peering out of the window, I could see Harry in his garden, burning leaves.

I shook my head and smiled.

He always did it the Muggle was – my dad was fascinated.

He raked the last of the leaves from his lawn and threw them on the bonfire.

His back was to me and I could see his wind-whipped hair outlined against the flames.

Which were the colour of my hair.

It looked for all the world like he was being caressed by them, wrapped up in them, and I wanted to be able to reach out and touch him.


My Big Damn Table.
