Dreams And Decision 4

"How were your studies going and what did you plan on doing tomorrow?" Asked Mira.

"I got a reply from Mafalda and she seems too eager to meet me tomorrow in Hogsmeade," said Harry.

He wrote to her and received her reply during the day through his Gringotts box and after hearing that he is the Heir to House Potter, she was ecstatic and wanted to meet him immediately.

Harry asked if tomorrow was ok in his reply and she jumped at the opportunity and accepted that in her reply.

"So you are going to be busy?" Asked Mira with a teasing smile.

"Something like that," said Harry.

"What did you plan for her?"

"Frankly speaking, I didn't plan anything. Just keeping my promise. Should see what she planned for tomorrow and decide on her," explained Harry.

"Meaning?"

"Should assess her interest in me. I think she knew she can't ask me to marry her at least as it will be seen as she somehow coaxed me into marrying her for my fame and popularity.

Keeping that in mind, I don't know whether she wanted to have a fling with me or do it just for fun because of the bleak chances.l it just likes young boys. That's why I don't know what to do with her."

"Hmm, seems like a good approach. Anyway, I'll be leaving. Don't forget to call me if anything like this happens again," said Mira.

"Wait!" Called Harry and Mira suddenly stopped.

"You knees about Apparition, right?" Harry asked accusing her.

"Um, hehe. Well, I should leave," she said with a nervous laugh and vanished in another flash.

'Damn woman. She conveniently escaped. And that's a good method of going somewhere, far better than apparition I guess.' Thought Harry, the dreadful experience coming into his mind.

He passed time by reading books on Occlumency as he can't sleep because of the dreams he had. As it reached an interesting topic about Animagus. Which he developed a recent interest in.

Scene Break

Next Day, Hogsmead

Harry ate breakfast in the Chamber and after preparing himself for the meeting, he walked out of the castle using the Slytherin Lord ring, by teleporting out of Hogwarts grounds where the wards end.

He made his way to the entrance to the Hogsmead village where Mafalda told him to receive her and Harry was waiting with his Invisibility cloak on.

Mafalda appeared via apparition, appearing beside Harry, but as he was under his cloak, she couldn't see him. Harry hid his cloak and appeared beside her and he made it look like he was using a Disillusionment charm.

"Mafalda, how are you doing?" Asked Harry, extending his hand in a pleasant tone. But instead of taking his hand for a handshake, she hugged him tightly, making him feel all the curves of her body.

Harry was out of breath for a second, but he adjusted and felt all the curves as Mafalda intended and he must admit, this was nothing compared to what he felt when hugging Cho.

'Stop thinking like that, Harry,' he mentally reprimanded.

"Harry, I'm soooo happy to hear about Heirship," she said in a joyous tone that felt genuine.

"Yes, I can feel that," said Harry, by the way she hugged him and Mafalda bent back to see his face, which had an amused smile.

"It seems you are happy as well," she said looking at his amused smile.

"Yes. I won my first case in the Wizarding world and got my compensation, right?"

"Yes, yes. But I don't want to talk about it here, let's move to Three Broomsticks," said Mafalda, applying a disillusionment charm on Harry and walking towards the pub.

They reached Three Broomsticks and Mafalda booked a private room and they went upstairs to the room, Harry followed her without making any sound.

After they sat and got comfortable, they started talking and it was about everything that happened in the previous months in the Ministry.

"Somehow, Amelia became more serious in her search for Sirius Black after your announcement as your Heirship to House Potter. Good for you, he will be found easily and executed," said Mafalda in a disgusted tone. Not knowing Harry's true intentions for the Black male.

"Ya. Leave it aside and tell me how you managed to intercept that letter?" Asked Harry, about the notice which was intercepted by her during the latter half of his summer.

"That's not a big deal, Harry. All letters should come through me as I should stamp my name and sign them. Though some were made automatic by use of magic, I still verify them.

In your case, I put a charm on the instrument that types the letter which intimates me when your name was typed on the letter.

So when your name was typed, I intercepted and made it look like a malfunction and wrote it myself. Do you like it?" She asked, a glint in her eyes while inching closer to him. Harry felt her approach but didn't make any move to stop her.
