Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

Afterwards, I was in the study talking to Sirius, who had received Bella's report.

"Hey, Harry, is this really okay? She's serious."

"It's okay, she's cute."

"Aren't you still dating your current girlfriend?"

"I had just broken up with her. She wanted me to buy some jewelry, so she took me to a jewelry store, and I saw a really beautiful necklace. I was wondering if I should buy it, because Bella would definitely like it when she grows up, but she seemed to think she would buy it for me herself. She asked me, 'Is this for me?' I said, no, I wanted to buy it for Bella when she grows up, and she slapped me in the face. She asked me, do you care more about me or Bella, and I immediately said Bella, and she punched me in the face."

"…Even I know that won't work."

"Yeah, I'm a little bit introspective. But when I think about it, I always compare myself to Bella whenever I'm with my girlfriend. Even when I praise her for being pretty, I'm thinking that Bella will be prettier when she grows up; even when I praise her for being suitable, I'm thinking that Bella will be more suitable when she grows up.

When she left, she scolded me and said, "Since you like Bella so much, just marry her!" I do agree with her idea a little. I used to think Bella was too young, and even if Long said Harry should marry Bella, I just dealt with it casually. But now I can imagine what Bella will look like when she grows up, and I start to think it might be good?

Until now, when I was dating other people, I never thought about getting married. To be honest, if you ask me if there is anyone more important than Bella, I can only say no. Although Bella is still a child, so she is not a romantic partner, but when Bella grows up, maybe I can consider it?

My most beloved princess, she is the most important, the most beautiful and the cutest, right?"

"Well...she's not cute to me. And I haven't heard Takashi say anything like that."

"Long was telling everyone to keep Sirius a secret, so everyone was keeping him quiet. He's been saying that since Bella was born. Maybe because I've been told that so many times, I've slowly started to think that this is okay.

But Bella didn't get close to Sirius at all. Sirius's attitude when he first met Bella, who was just born, was really bad. It was just bullshit."

"Because she really is exactly like Bella? As they grow up, they become more and more alike."

"Well, that may be the case. That's what everyone says."

"She really loves Voldemort, doesn't she? Is she looking for the afterimage in Harry's heart? She feels the afterimage, as if it is reborn in us."

"Well, maybe close to that feeling? I think it's different from rebirth.

It can be said to be reborn, but in fact, Tom has disappeared, and does not even exist on the other side of the veil. However, in this world, his faint presence still remains, wandering around, and finally sensing the breath of Tom in my heart, gradually approaching the unborn child of Sirius and his wife. This statement is more accurate. After all, it is not a soul-splitting device, so it does not have enough power to control me.

That’s what Long said.

So, there was no need for him to be reborn, and what Lon said was right. He said that just as a piece of Tom was integrated into me, a piece of Bellatrix was integrated into Bella. "

"So--"

"I, Sirius, think this is fine.

Seb and Sirius were also looking for the afterimages of my parents in the beginning, right? But I felt happy even then. Because they were my children and they were loved. They both raised me with love, like their own child. I also understand that they gradually stopped looking for the afterimages and started looking at me as a person. After all, afterimages are just afterimages. I think I can tell whether it is love for me or love for the afterimages. "

"Hmm... maybe that's the case."

"Moreover, the Japanese sorcerer also said that Tom's soul was entangled and could not be separated. It was indeed entangled at that time, but now he and I have merged and become one.

At that time I felt a foreign body in my heart, but now I can feel it myself and it is gone. Since then, I have often spoken to this wound. Although your other souls have disappeared and no longer exist in this world, let us live together. Then, I hope you can experience many things, and although there will be bad things sometimes, there will also be many good things.

So, the wound is not as deep now as before?

I resisted violently at first. But then Lucius showed me the notes he and the Weasley brothers had taken that summer discussing my rescue, and he showed it to me, and I saw it. Did Sirius see it, too?"

“…That’s it.”

"There was a discussion in the principal's office about the curse, and then Ron and the twins tried desperately to stop them, saying to hold on! Don't be fooled! Although it was a thing of the past, Ron, Fred, and George all seemed to be trying very hard.

Hearing this, I burst into tears for no apparent reason. I couldn't stop. Even at my aunt's house, I've never cried so hard before, but at that moment, I couldn't stop crying, and that was all I could see that day. I kept crying, and finally I fell asleep from exhaustion.

So I think the truth is quite close. And, I actually want someone to stop him. He has so many admirers, but no one has stopped him like this. Friends are all pure-blood nobles, and although they are equal to each other, Tom has a wall in his heart. Friends who noticed this did not take the initiative to step on this bottom line, right?

I have discussed before whether orphan Tom could find some peace of mind among pure-blood nobles during his time at Hogwarts. Perhaps this is true. Draco said that Tom was at ease in the elegant Malfoy household, but this could also be a kind of forced courage. Perhaps it is the bravado of a lonely orphan.

I think Long's analysis of Tom is correct. Tom is an innocent, hardworking, and not very clever person. Tom is excellent in everything and can master everything, but he never thinks that he is not clever. But his life is full of incompetence.

The next day I watched it again from the beginning, and when I heard Tom say that he should build a school to show Dumbledore how powerful he was, I felt that the resistant Tom suddenly calmed down. Although he may hate the Muggle blood in his body, when it was pointed out that he was a "profiteer", and Long cried and said that he wanted Tom's beauty, I felt that the Tom in me was slightly happy.

I loved the Weasleys, but I'm sure Tom loved them too. When I saw that scene, I realized that I had stopped resisting a little. From then on, I called out to him many times a day, asking him to start his life with me again. To be happy with the Weasleys and have a good time at Hogwarts again. And I felt that he accepted this. Since then, I could feel him slowly melting in my heart.

Well, maybe there was a sign of this before? When I started living with the Weasley brothers and Aunt Ann, Percy always took care of me, right? At that time, he often touched my forehead. He touched my forehead and said to me, 'Good boy, it's okay, don't worry anymore, you are not alone anymore. ' At that time, I didn't understand what this behavior was, but Percy had already understood it. "
