Uncle vernon made a funny, rasping noise. I demand that you leave at once, sir, he said, you are breaking and entering. Oh, shut up, Anders lee! A great prune! Said the giant he reached over to the back of the sofa, jerk the gun out of Uncle vernon's hands, bent it into a nut as easily as if it had been made out of rubber and threw it into a corner of the room. Uncle vernon made another funny noise, like a mouse being trotted on. Anyway, Harry! Said the giant, turning his back on the dirt sleaze. A very happy birthday to here, God Summit for you! Here, I'm on a sat on it at some point, put your taste all right from an inside pocket of his black overcoat. He pulled out a slightly squashed box. Harry opened it with trembling fingers. Inside was a large sticky chocolate cake with happy birthday Harry written on it in green icing. Harry looked up at the giant. He meant to say thank you, but his words got lost on the way to his mouth, and what he said instead, was who are you? The giant chuckled to have, and introducing yourself, ruby is hagrid Keeper of the Keys and grounds at Hogwarts. He held out an enormous hand and shook Harry's whole arm. What about that? T that? Uh! He said, rubbing his hands together. I not say no to so much stronger if you got in mind. His hands fell on the empty, great, with the shriveled chip bags in it, and he snorted. He bent down over the fireplace, they couldn't see what he was doing there, but when he drew back a second later, there was a roaring fire there. It filled the whole damn pot with flickering light and harry, felt the warmth washed over him as though he'd sunk into a hot bath. The giant sat back down on the sofa, which sagged under his weight, and began taking all sorts of things out of the pockets of his coat, a copper kettle squishy package of sausages, a poker, a teapot, several chipped mugs, and a bottle of some amber liquid that he took a full swig of before starting to make tea. Soon the hut was full of sound and the smell of sizzling sausage. Nobody said a thing while the giant was working, but as he slid the first six fat, juicy, slightly burnt sausage from the poker. Dudley fidgeted a little, Uncle vernon said sharply, Don't touch anything he gives you, dad lee! The giant chuckled darkly. You're great putting of a son, dont need fattening anymore, does li! Don't worry, he passed the sausages to harry, who was so hungry. He had never tasted anything so wonderful, but he couldn't take his eyes off the giant. Finally, as nobody seemed about to explain anything, he said, I'm sorry, but I don't really know who you are. The giant took a gulp of tea and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. Call me a grid! He said, everyone does. And, like I told you, I'm gonna keep you the keys at all quartz. You know all about? All the words. Of course. Uh No, said Harry. Hagrid looks shot! Sorry, Harry said quickly. Sorry, barked. Hagrid, turning to stare at the doctor's lease. Who shrank back into the shadows. Hysteria should be sorry. I knew you weren't getting your letters, but I never thought you wouldn't even know about Hogwarts for crying out loud. Do you ever wonder where your parents learned it all or what asks Harry or what? Hagrid thundered Now. Just wait 1 2nd. He had leapt to his feet. In his anger. He seemed to fill the whole hut. The door's lease were cowering against the wall. Do you mean to tell me? He growled at the doctor's lease that this boy, this boy knows nothing about about anything. Harry thought this was going a bit far. He had been to school after all, and his marks weren't bad. I know some things he said, I can, you know, do math and stuff. But Haggard simply waved his hand and said about our world. I mean, your world, my world, your parents world. What world? Haggard looked as if he was about to explode doors lee, he boomed, Uncle vernon, who had gone very pale, whispered something that sounded like nimble Winnable. Haggard stared wildly at Harry, But you must know about your mom and dad. I mean they're famous. You're famous. What? My my mom and dad weren't famous, were they? You don't know, You don't know. Haggard ran his fingers through his hair, fixing Harry with a bewildered stare. You don't know what you are, he said. Finally, Uncle vernon suddenly found his voice. Stop! He commanded. Stop! Right there, sir. I forbid you to tell that boy anything. A braver man than vernon. Dursley would have quail dunder! The furious look Haggard now gave him. When Haggard spoke, his every syllable trembled with rage. You never told him, Never told him what was in the letter. Bumbled or left for him. I was there, I saw dumbledore leavitt, Dursley! And you kept him from him all these years kept wants from me. Stop! I forbid you yelled Uncle vernon, and panic, and Petunia gave a gasp of horror. Go boil your heads! Both of you said Hagrid, You're a wizard. Harry! There was a silence inside the hut. Only the sea and the whistling wind could be heard.
