Let me say it again because some people clearly don't get it:I keep seeing complaints about the lack of updates on We b no vel and W at tp ad. And honestly? I don't care.Yes, some novels haven't been updated in over a week. But I'm going through a breakup that's torn me apart. I lost my cat. I've lost friends. And there's a lot more going on that you don't see.
Don't come at me with nonsense about updates.Everything is up to date on Patreon, and if you want more, that's where it is.I'm posting this message there too — and over there, people are kind. They get it. They never complain, even when I make mistakes. Thank you for that.
I'll post on We bn ovel and Wa tt pa d when I have the strength to. Not before.
-----------------------------------------------------
Harry's plan required a very special tool.
The Invisibility Cloak!
Whether he could sneak a gift into Cho Chang's dormitory all depended on whether he still had it.
The thought had only just occurred to Harry.
Back during Christmas, Professor Dumbledore had given him the Invisibility Cloak as a gift.
So—if nothing unexpected had happened—it should still be in Harry's dormitory.
Excited, Harry dashed back to Gryffindor Tower.
The Fat Lady was still asleep, so Harry didn't bother to wake her.
"Alohomora."
The door creaked open, and Harry slipped inside.
Thud, thud, thud—he sprinted all the way up to his dormitory.
When he pushed open the door, his jaw dropped.
Presents were piled all over the floor!
His bed was completely buried.
"Maybe some of these are for my dorm mates?" Harry guessed.
He randomly picked up a few beautifully wrapped boxes.
Some had names he recognized, others he didn't.
But one thing was clear: all of them were addressed to Harry Potter.
He was happy, surprised, and tempted to rip them open and see what was inside right then and there.
But if Cho woke up soon, it would be hard to explain everything.
So, the gifts would have to wait.
Harry dove into the pile and rummaged around. After ten minutes, he found a plain, unmarked package.
It felt soft—like clothing.
He held his breath and carefully unwrapped it.
It shimmered like liquid silver.
A silvery glow rippled across its surface as it pooled in his hands, gleaming and weightless.
It was beautiful.
It was—the Invisibility Cloak.
My lifelong dream… the dream of countless men… finally within reach—to sneak into the girls' bathhouse—no, wait, that's not right. I meant… the bank. Yeah. The bank. Ahem…
A small note slipped out:
"Your father left this in my care before he died. It's time it was returned to you. Use it well. Wishing you a Merry Christmas."
Harry gave the cloak a shake. It was large—big enough to cover an adult from head to toe.
For someone Harry's size, it could probably fit three kids under it.
Everything was ready.
Cloak in hand, Harry ran back outside. The sky was getting brighter.
Time was running out.
After orienting himself, he sprinted toward the Ravenclaw dormitory tower.
There was supposed to be a guard at the entrance, but whoever it was had vanished—probably off napping somewhere.
Perfect.
Now cloaked and invisible, Harry pointed his wand at the door.
"Alohomora."
The door opened with a soft click.
The layout inside was just like Gryffindor's, so it was easy for Harry to tell which door led to the girls' dorm.
And then—he froze.
He had no idea which room was Cho's.
Harry combed through his memories, searching every conversation with Cho for a clue.
Nothing.
I mean, seriously, what girl would say to a guy, "Oh, I live in Room Such-and-Such~~"?
So… he'd have to check them one by one.
As he opened the first door, for some reason, Harry felt a rush of excitement—especially since he was invisible.
The room was empty. He calmed himself and moved on.
Now and then, in some rooms, he spotted… certain intimate articles of clothing hanging up, making his heart race uncontrollably.
There's a saying: after thirty, every bachelor becomes a wizard.
Including his previous life, Harry was already past thirty.
He touched his nose—whew, no nosebleed.
Priest, stand by for healing spells!
He opened door after door, only to find each room was empty.
Just like in Gryffindor, most students had gone home for the holidays.
Harry's heart ached at the thought of Cho being left here all alone.
Just then, he noticed a faint yellow light spilling from under one of the doors—but he didn't give it much attention.
…
Cho had woken up early that day.
But instead of getting out of bed, she stayed curled up, clutching the wand beneath her pillow, lying on her side, watching the reddish tint of the sky through the window, quietly waiting for dawn.
She didn't dare turn on the lights. Being bathed in brightness made her feel exposed and unsafe.
As she lay there in silence, she suddenly heard a sound—her door opening and then softly closing.
At first, she thought she was imagining it. But the less certain she felt, the more focused she became.
Creak…
Click.
The door opened… and shut again.
Cho's heart tensed. She knew she hadn't misheard.
The sounds were getting louder—and closer.
She dove under her blanket, not daring to peek out.
She clearly remembered—there was hardly anyone left in the girls' dorm.
So what were all these… creepy noises?
Her mind raced through terrifying thoughts.
Eventually, she quietly turned on the lamp—maybe to give herself a sense of safety, or maybe in the hope that whoever was outside would see the light and back off.
Either way, she listened as the heavy footsteps grew closer and closer on the wooden floor… and then stopped.
Huddled under her blanket, she peeked through a tiny gap and saw—the door slowly open.
But there was no one there.
Cho's hair stood on end.
Luobei: Happy Lantern Festival!
Let me ask—when you were little, did you ever imagine what you'd do if you could turn invisible?
