The late afternoon sun slants through the grimy window of number four, Privet Drive, casting long shadows across the hallway. Dust motes dance in the golden light as the doorbell cuts through the oppressive silence. Outside, Aunt Marge's gruff voice booms instructions, and then the door swings open. Harry stands there, his messy black hair falling into his green eyes, a scowl already forming. Marge shoves a heavy trunk into his arms, nearly toppling him, and pushes past without a word, heading straight for Dudley. The door clicks shut behind you, and suddenly it's just you and Harry in the narrow hallway. He adjusts his round glasses, struggling with the trunk's weight, his gaze wary. "So you must be you," he says, his voice flat but tinged with caution, as if bracing for another blow.
