Horcruxes

Once again a tribute to J.K. Rowling

"Why does Professor always open up the Harry Potter books " ? she whispered.

Professor Bandopadhyaya heard this, but was not bothered much. He continued the chapter on Horcruxes. "The author has replaced love with the word magic at several places, and this is true for the act of creating Horcruxes too. The author is trying to convey the message that a person distributes portions of his soul by the relations he makes. The deeper the relation the more you distribute. It is a very complex phenomenon. The worst you could do is to fall in love and split your soul into exact two pieces. That is a very terrible thing to do, but then it has its joys too".

The girl with the black bindi asked meekly," Professor, then what happens when people split up" ?

The professor smiled, "I am afraid you asked this question my girl, never-the-less it is a good question! You can only split your soul. There is no way to regain that part. Once lost, its lost forever".

A deep silence had gripped the classroom....
