9.23.13 I have started to read "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets." Since Hogwarts, Harry has managed to get his own room instead of the cupboard under the stairs. The Dursleys still do not like him. However, they are afraid he'll perform magic on them, so they're not treating him as bad as before. They are unaware that wizards attending Hogwarts are not allowed to perform magic outside of the school, and Harry is making sure they don't find out. 9.24.13 I continued to read "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets." A strange creature was in Harry's room, and the creature introduced him as Dobby, a house elf. Dobby warned Harry not to go back to Hogwarts because it's too dangerous. Harry refuses to listen to Dobby because he feels Hogwarts is his only escape from the Dursleys. Since Harry wouldn't listen, Dobby got him in trouble.
9.25.13 9.26.13 Since Dobby got Harry in trouble, he was locked in his room. He could only eat when the Dursleys gave him food, and he had limited bathroom breaks. After three days, Harry heard something outside his window which turned out to be Ron, Fred, and George. They were worried that he never wrote back to Ron or Hermoine, so they decided to check if he was okay. They helped him escape, and they went to the Weasley's house.
