In Harry’s first year, Ronald Weasley, Hermione Granger and Riya Silvertongue were his friends. Later Harry made several other friends but the three were his best friends.
Riya’s father was Harry’s father’s friend and he and her mother belonged to Order of Phoenix. Riya was a smart girl and her birthday fell on 31st July. She was Hermione’s best friend and one of the cleverest girls in Hogwarts.
She helped Harry in destroying the Horcruxes, and in killing Voldemort. Harry loved her as his sister and she too was worth it.
Now came the day when Voldemort was killed and when they were having a party at the Burrow. All Weasleys, Hermione and her Parents, Harry and Riya and her Parents were there.
Riya was looking a bit disturbed and she wanted to talk something.
“What’s the matter Riya?” Harry asked.
“I want to tell you something, but not here. Let’s go inside.”
Both of them went inside and came out after nearly an hour.
“Friends, I want to tell you all something. It’s about my life. It’s a twin mystery that Riya just told me.” Harry spoke in high and clear voice.
“Well, Riya, it would be better if you tell.” Harry whispered.
“Friends, since my birth I knew this mystery and along with me my parents, Harry’s parents and Dumbledore knew about this. I told the secret to Hagrid and McGonagall just a year back.
“Well, the thing is that Harry has a twin sister. Dumbledore thought that she won’t be safe with Dursleys after Harry’s parents’ death and so he took her and asked a friend of his to take care of her.
“Lupin and Black were Harry’s parents’ friends and they knew that Harry has a sister but didn’t know where she is. They tried to find out but in vain.
“Not many people knew about this and so Voldemort didn’t discover it at all. But I thought that as the battle has finished now, it would be safe to reveal the twin mystery. Actually, Dumbledore himself wanted to tell this to Harry but he didn’t get a chance…”
“Does his sister know all this?” Ginny asked.
“Yes she knows and is eager to meet Harry as her brother.”
“So who is she?” Ron asked eagerly.
“Let Harry tell you that.” Riya turned to Harry with a smile.
“Only if I had known this before… Well, my bestest friend is my sister. And she is…”
He turned to Hermione and said,
“She’s your best friend Mione. Riya is my sister.”
Everyone was quite surprised and happy. But most happy were Mr. and Mrs. Silvertongue.
“Now Riya Silvertongue is Riya Potter. My darling Riya got her real family back.” Mrs. Silvertongue said with joyful tears in eyes.
“Harry, take care of your sister.” Mr. Silvertongue said.
“Dad, I’ll always remain your dear Riya.” Riya said with tears in her eyes.
“Yes uncle. And I’m not taking your Riya away from you. Instead, I and Riya have decided that I’ll come to live with you forever.” Harry said.
Everyone was quite rejoiced and the party got even more happier with one more reason to celebrate.
