Les Miserables
- In my life
How strange, this feeling that my life's begun at last. This change, can people really fall in love so fast? What's the matter with you, Cosette? Have you been too much on your own? So many things unclear, so many things unknown. In my life there are so many questions and answers that somehow seem wrong. In my life there are times when I catch in the silence the sigh of a far away song. And it sings of a world that I long to see, out of reach. Just a whisper away waiting for me!

There was a moment I was excited, when I realized time was different, a moment when I thought maybe my mum hadn't got sick. Maybe my mum wasn't dead. But no, turns out, she was. I'm still the child of Voldemort, without a mother, giving sympathy to the boy who doesn't ever give anything back. So I'm sorry if I've ruined your life because I tell you - you wouldn't have a chance of ruining mine - it was already ruined. You just didn't make it better. Because you're a terrible friend.

Can you even slightly imagine what that's like? Have you ever tried? No. Because you can't see beyond the end of your nose. Because you can't see beyond the end of your stupid thing with your dad. He will always be Harry Potter, you know that, right? And you will always be his son. And I know it's hard, and the other kids are awful, but you have to learn to be okay with that, because - there are worse things, okay?
