Summary
Ron should have never opened that box.
When Ron was born, his mum told him that he was the quietest of his siblings as an infant. He cried very little and always seemed to understand what everyone else was saying. His father expressed fondness for the expressions he made and the little sounds he would emit as if he were trying to be a part of the conversation itself. It was funny and cute, and even now, they would still talk about baby Ron babbling seriously around the adults around him as if he were a grown boy himself.
Of course, now that Ron is near the phase where puberty is near, only a few years away, he likes to believe that he is more mature than his age. Although it's not just a belief to protect his pride, it’s also a knowledge inside him that feels as if he has lived a life entirely different from the one he is living now. He was old in that life, but now he is once again a child.
