Drabble
I did a Drabble for Harry Potter:
There was a shop in Muggle London Molly sometimes liked to look at that sold things for the home; paintings, decorator plates and so forth. Once she noticed a plaque in the window that read ‘Being a mother is like wearing your heart on the outside’. Seemed a bit grim to her, but there was no accounting for taste, especially with Muggles.
Now she thought she knew what that meant. She was a mother with a heart in eight separate pieces, each one in mortal danger every day.
Carrying the clock was the only way she could keep from crying.
What do you think?
