It was a few days before Ron found the courage to finally open the letter from his parents. It hadn't left his mind since Christmas Day and for all of Boxing Day Ron had struggled about what to do. He knew he should open it, he was going too but the fear about what it might say was horrible. Trying to remember how the twins had acted was helping, they hadn't treated him like Percy instead they had been just as teasing as normal. So as he sat in the empty dormitory, Harry was out with Hagrid, he finally opened the letter.
