News from J.K. Rowling
ペチュニア and Vernon Dursley
Harry's aunt and uncle met at work. ペチュニア Evans, forever embittered によって the fact that her parents seemed to value her witch sister もっと見る than they valued her, left Cokeworth forever to pursue a typing course in London. This led to an office job, where she met the extremely unmagical, opinionated and materialistic Vernon Dursley. Large and neckless, this junior executive seemed a model of manliness to young Petunia. He not only returned her romantic interest, but was deliciously normal. He had a perfectly correct car, and wanted to do completely ordinary things, and によって the time he had taken her on a series of dull dates, during which he talked mainly about himself and his predictable ideas on the world, ペチュニア was dreaming of the moment when he would place a ring on her finger.
When, in due course, Vernon Dursley proposed marriage, very correctly, on one knee in his mother's sitting room, ペチュニア accepted at once. The one fly in her delicious ointment was the fear of what her new fiancé would make of her sister, who was now in her final 年 at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Vernon was apt to despise even people who wore brown shoes with black suits; what he would make of a young woman who spent most of her time wearing long robes and casting spells, ペチュニア could hardly くま, クマ to think.
She confessed the truth during a tear-stained date, in Vernon's dark car as they sat overlooking the chip ショップ where Vernon had just bought them a post-cinema snack. Vernon, as ペチュニア had expected, was deeply shocked; however, he told ペチュニア solemnly that he would never hold it against her that she had a freak for a sister, and ペチュニア threw herself upon him in such violent gratitude that he dropped his battered sausage.
The first meeting between Lily, her boyfriend James Potter, and the engaged couple, went badly, and the relationship nose-dived from there. James was amused によって Vernon, and made the mistake of 表示中 it. Vernon tried to patronise James, asking what car he drove. James described his racing broom. Vernon supposed out loud that wizards had to live on unemployment benefit. James explained about Gringotts, and the fortune his parents had saved there, in solid gold. Vernon could not tell whether he was being made fun of または not, and grew angry. The evening ended with Vernon and ペチュニア storming out of the restaurant, while Lily burst into tears and James (a little ashamed of himself) promised to make things up with Vernon at the earliest opportunity.
This never happened. ペチュニア did not want Lily as a bridesmaid, because she was tired of being overshadowed; Lily was hurt. Vernon refused to speak to James at the reception, but described him, within James' earshot, as 'some kind of amateur magician'. Once married, ペチュニア grew ever もっと見る like Vernon. She loved their neat square house at number four, イボタノキ, プライベート Drive. She was secure, now, from objects that behaved strangely, from teapots that suddenly piped tunes as she passed, または long conversations about things she did not understand, with names like 'Quidditch' and 'Transfiguration'. She and Vernon chose not to attend Lily and James' wedding. The very last piece of correspondence she received from Lily and James was the announcement of Harry's birth, and after one contemptuous look, ペチュニア threw it in the bin.
Even though ペチュニア was raised alongside a witch, she is remarkably ignorant about magic. She and Vernon share a confused idea that they will somehow be able to squash the magic out of Harry, and in an attempt to throw off the letters that arrive from Hogwarts on Harry's eleventh birthday, she and Vernon fall back on the old superstition that witches cannot クロス water. As she had frequently seen Lily jump streams and run across stepping stones in their childhood, she ought not to have been surprised when Hagrid had no difficulty making his way over the stormy sea to the hut on the rock.
