Morvous's Pov

I have been observing maven for the past few days he has changed a lot he was more interactive than before and he is even speaking with 'twik' which I was not expecting. His eating habits have changed now a days he is eating more food. Previously he was never enthusiastic and very picky when it came to food. Today he came on his own and asked me for a book I felt very happy .may be what Maria said is true I should just leave free than forcing him. Feeling very happy I decided I need to get few books for my son. So I decided to go to diagon alley.

I went to flourish and blots asked the manager about books on history of wizarding and also few books for children. When he told me the price of the book I was shocked the book costs around 1500 galleons.i left disappointed this was the first time maven asked me some thing useful since his birth and I didn't have money to purchase it. Should I send a Owl to Gaunt manor asking for few books. No this was the answer that came to my mind I know how much my family members hate me and my son. So I decided to ask few sensible friends who didn't have prejudice towards me.

There was only one person who came in to my mind that was Maria she was the only one who ever helped him.i owled her if I could talk to her in person at leaky couldron. She send me reply that she will meet at 4 pm .so I waited for her at leaky couldron. Then I saw her coming out of floo network.she saw me and gave me a smile

" Hey Morvous I never expected an owl from you what's the matter ".

Then I explained to her the situation and the present condition of maven.she gave a weird expression.

"Oh my almighty Morvous is asking for help this is in expected when did you gaunts acted so pleasent "

" Common Maria can you get me these books I am just borrowing these books I will return then without any damage"

" Ok Morvous for the sake of that kid I will loan you these books. If the kid is really able to show his worth I am willing to guide him/ provide few more books that don't involve spells. You should know getting books out from my family library is like as long as they are basic knowledge books I can provide that kid ".

" Thank you Maria thanks a lot "

"I don't need your thank you Morvous. what can you give me in return for this help"

" What do you want " said Morvous with a poker face.

" Ha ha look at your face i will use this favour when I need what do you say".

" Ok as long as your wish is with in my power and doesn't have contradiction s with my family I will fulfill it".

" Excellent we got ourselves a deal "

"Ok when can you get me these books next month 7th is Mavens birthday I like to invite to you".

" Hmm ok I will give get the books on his birthday and thank you for your invitation. I will take my leave I got lot of work to take care of"

Maria stood up and left.
