All was well.





It is very ironic that I end up watching epic movies with my best friends the day after a crazy showdown with the guy I love.

This time, it was the final installment of the Harry Potter series. With Alya.
One word.
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE!

The fact that we were finally going to watch the movie.. (wayyy after the whole world had already watched it. Indonesia is a crappy country bro) It didn’t sink in until we reached the crowd outside the theater. Both Alya and I rushed to text our respective twins before we entered.. :D

It was like voluntarily walking right into something that we KNEW would kill us.

The first scene. Voldemort finally laying his hands on the Elder Wand..
Voldemort’s face, the background score, the aura.. Goosebumps. On my face.
I really wanted to cry at that time.. but I settled for holding Alya’s hand as tight as possible. I couldn’t get through this alone, no.

Scene by scene.. the movie progresses.. I recite the dialogues along with the characters, because that’s me. I remember them all, bro! Most of them, I mean. Also, HA ALYA! I know the dialogues better. And the character names too.

Every moment is painful. Physically, not just emotionally. True story. I just can’t comprehend the fact that it’s the last movie.. it’s the end. It’s FINALLY the end. My heart just went of breaking as the scenes played in front of my eyes.. Thrice, or four times throughout the movie, I almost cried. And once, I just cried. Silently wept.. Fred, Remus and Tonks die..

Ron and Hermione kiss. Harry and Ginny kiss. Neville FINALLY admits he’s in love with Luna. I cannot explain the soaring feeling in the my heart. Love is so pretty.
Hermione.. wow. I’m in awe of her character. SUCH a strong girl. Just “Brilliant!”. I wish Daniel had grown taller.. I love Rupert Grint. And WHAT THE HELL happened to Neville Longbottom and Dean Thomas?! They’re.. dashing. Killer good looks.
“NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH!” You GO MRS.WEASLEY! And Sirius Black, I love you forever.
Severues Snape. New found respect for your character.. even more after watching the movie. A big salute, Alan Rickman.
The hug between Voldemort and Draco. Dude, AWKWARD much?
I miss you Dumbledore. And The Marauders. And Lily. And Fred. And Tonks. I wish you hadn’t died..
The kids. You’re all beautiful. And remember, you’re part of a great legend now. The Harry Potter phenomenon. The last scene.. 19 years later. Harry and Ginny with Albus, James and Lily. Ron and Hermione with Hugo and Rose. Draco, his wife and Scorpius.. Perfect couples. Picture perfect.

I didn’t let go of Alya’s hand the whole time, even though it became numb and I stopped feeling the presence of my hand after a while. I screamed, laughed, cried, swore. I pointed and SWORE when they changed the FRIKKIN’ SCENES! HOW COULD THEY? @#!@%$@#^%(&!

At the end, we were left blank. Shocked. Empty.
It was like, a place in our heart where Harry Potter and all things related resided, died. It was just ripped out. I don’t think we were ready for it to end..
It was the end of an ERA! :”(

Oh. And my dad asked us in the end when we came back to the office..
“Did he die?” Actually, dad just wanted to know if he got married or not.
K.

But you know what..?

All was well.
