Dear Diary, It's me, Ginny.

Dear Diary, my name is Virginia Weasley, but I go by Ginny.

Ginny: My name is Tom Riddle.

Are you alive?

You could say that. Now, what were you going to tell me?

I was going to tell you about my day. If you don't want to hear about it that's ok.

Well, carry on, then.

I found this diary in my school stuff.

What school?

Hogwarts.

I went there. What house?

Gryffindor. What house were you in?

Oh well. Harry Potter goes here. He's

Really?

Yes he's really

What house?

Gryffindor. He's really

What year?

Second. He's really cute, but I think he likes Hermione Granger. She's

Is she a pureblood?

I don't think so. She's really nice, though. Well, he could go out with me. Ron likes Hermione.

Who's Ron?

My brother. He's a year older than me and in the same year as Harry.

So you're eleven.

Yes. I have two twin brothers, Fred and George. They're fourteen. My brother, Percy, is sixteen. He's a prefect.

I was a prefect. I was also Head Boy.

I bet Percy is going to be one, too. I don't think Fred and George would be able to bear it. They always make fun of him. I have two other brothers, Bill and Charlie. They've already left Hogwarts. Charlie works with dragons in Romania. You should see the burns he has. Charlie is a curse breaker for Gringotts.

I thought you were going to tell me about your day.

Oh yeah. Well, I've only been at school for a week.

What classes do you have?

I have Potions in the dungeons, it's a pain. Professor Snape is really mean.

He's a traitor.

What do you mean?

Nothing serious. What other classes do you have?

I have Defence Against the Dark Arts. Gilderoy Lockhart teaches it. I heard he set a cage of Cornish Pixies on the Second Years. Somebody is coming. I'll talk to you later.

Dear Tom, I went down to Hagrid's house today I

Rubeus Hagrid?

Yes. Why?

Nothing. I heard something about him.

What?

Nothing serious.

I was looking for Harry. Sometimes he goes down there. I don't think he'll ever like me, Tom.

Just give him time. He'll come around soon, Ginny.

No one's ever understood me like you, Tom.

They'll understand you soon. You just have to give them a chance.

No they won't! I have to go to school with second hand robes and books. Everybody teases me.

Not everybody.

Even my own brothers tease me, Tom! Well, Fred and George tease me.

I don't tease you.

You don't count.

Does Harry tease you?

No. That's why I like him. He's nice to me.

Is that the only reason you like him?

Well, he is cute, and last year he saved the Sorcerer's Stone from You-Know-Who. He's really brave. My brother, Ron helped him. Hermione helped them, too. I would have helped them, too, if I were at Hogwarts.

You probably would have.

I'm so glad I have this diary to confide in. It's like having an invisible friend I can carry around in my pocket!

I'm glad I can talk to you, too.

I have to get to class.

Dear Tom, I think I'm losing my memory.

What do you mean?

There are rooster feathers all over my robes and I don't know how they got there!

That doesn't mean anything. A rooster broke into your dorm a messed up your robes.

Tom, none of my other robes are messed up. I fell asleep in the common room and when I woke up there were rooster feathers all over my robes.

Ok then, a rooster broke in the common room and had a field day all over your robes.

The scary thing is that all the school roosters are dead!

A rooster probably broke in the common room, had a field day all over your robes, then Miss Norris killed them.

They were strangled, Tom.

Somebody thought it would be funny to kill the roosters. It happened all the time when I was at school.

Really?

Really. Let's talk about something happier. Like why you like Harry so much.

He's famous, Tom.

Why?

I'm talking about Harry Potter.

What's so special about him?

You knew he was special earlier.

I forgot. Refresh my memory.

Ok. You-Know-Who

Who is You-Know-Who? When I was at school there was no such person. What's his name?

I don't believe you don't know it.

Just write it once.

Ok, but only once. V *pause* oldemort.

What's so bad about his name?

He was a really bad wizard. He went around and killed Muggle-borns.

Good for him.

WHAT?

I was being sarcastic, Ginny. Keep your pants on. Or not.

Tom, tell me you were joking.

I WAS JOKING!!

Well, You-Know-Who went to Harry's house and killed Harry's parents. Then he tried to kill Harry, but it didn't work. The curse turned on him instead. Harry escaped with a scar and nothing else.

How old was he?

I think he was one.

You like him for something he doesn't even remember?

Well, he is cute.

Girls.

You're acting like boys don't go for pretty girls.

Tom?

Tom come back!
