BERTIE WEASLEY: Mum?
LOUISA WEASLEY: Did you sleep ok?
BERTIE WEASLEY: Yeah but … can I get in with you?
LOUISA WEASLEY: Of course, you can. Where’s Dad?
BERTIE WEASLEY: Uncle Bill picked him up a while ago.
LOUISA WEASLEY: Oh! I forgot. So what shall we do today?
GEORGE WEASLEY: Anyone home?
LOUISA WEASLEY: YES! UP HERE! JUST NO EXPLOTIONS GEORGE!
GEORGE WEASLEY: (George enters) Typical Snape Party, You, all right?
LOUISA WEASLEY: Of course, we are.
GEORGE WEASLEY: It’s alright to miss them you know. Angelina was in a right state.
LOUISA WEASLEY: It’s just a different sort of missing them. Isn’t it.
GEORGE WEASLEY: Yeah I guess
BERTIE WEASLEY: (sighs) Can I get my own breakfast?
LOUISA WEASLEY: Yes, but if you want it cooked get Gert to do it! (Bertie leaves) It hurts George. I mean I knew it
would but, it still hurts. (they follow slowly)
GEORGE WEASLEY: Not like this with Delphi then?
LOUISA WEASLEY: That’s different, she’s my sister. I’m guessing you want breakfast too?
GEORGE WEASLEY: Well IF you wouldn’t mind… I mean if it’s not TOO much trouble.
LOUISA WEASLEY: Well I’m one down I guess I have to add another to the list.
BERTIE WEASLEY: Uncle Ron!
RON WEASLEY: Whattcha, you got breakfast on?
LOUISA WEASLEY: Ron you know I’m under strict instructions from the Minister to not permit you second, third or
fourth breakfasts.
RON WEASLEY: (slumps down) It’s blimmin strict this diet she has me on!
HERMIONE GRANGER-WEASLEY: (enters) and not at all for the benefit of your health RONALD! (drags him away)
GEORGE WEASLEY: See we’ll take your mind of your problems by giving you Ron instead!
LOUISA WEASLEY: That’s always a… comfort. (smiles weakly)
BERTIE WEASLEY: She always shouts. (munching toast)
LOUISA WEASLEY: Just at Uncle Ron.
BERTIE WEASLEY: Can we go see Grandma and Granddad today?
LOUISA WEASLEY: Sorry sweetheart but they’re on holiday.
GEORGE WEASLEY: How about you help me in the basement until dad gets back? (Louisa give a warning look)
(he puts his hands up) I know, I know no explosions of any kind.
BERTIE WEASLEY: Brilliant!!! Thanks Uncle George.
Louisa sits at the table with the photo and letter from Severina in her hands… Doing well, she’s ok. Mustn’t write to her too often. Just reply to what she needs… How am I supposed to know how to be a mum when I never had one?
LOUISA WEASLEY: You two ok if I just pop out for a second?
GEORGE WEASLEY: (smiles) course we are.
LOUISA WEASLEY: nothing that leaks. It took Gert ages to clear the mess up last time.
GEORGE WEASLEY: Cross my heart
LOUISA WEASLEY: Without crossed fingers?
GEORGE WEASLEY: Would I! The insult Loo!
LOUISA WEASLEY: Hmm, well I’ll see you in a bit and you can clear it if there is a mess. Gert is too old.
BERTIE WEASLEY: Mum?
