"Vernon Dursley speaking!"
Harry, who happened to be in the room at the time, froze as he heard Ron's voice answer.
"HELLO? HELLO? CAN YOU HEAR ME? I-WANT-TO-TALK-TO-HARRY-POTTER!"
Ron was shouting so loudly that Uncle Vernon jumped and held the receiver a foot away from his ear, looking at it with an expression of mixed anger and fear.
"WHO IS THIS?" he shouted loudly into the phone. "WHO ARE YOU?"
"RON-WEASLEY!" Ron bellowed back. It seemed like he and Uncle Vernon were speaking from opposite ends of a football field. "I'M-A-FRIEND-OF-HARRY'S—FROM-SCHOOL."
Uncle Vernon's small eyes turned quickly to Harry, who was unable to move.
"THERE IS NO HARRY POTTER HERE!" he shouted angrily, now holding the receiver at arm's length, like he was afraid that it might explode. "I DON'T KNOW WHAT SCHOOL YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT! NEVER CONTACT ME AGAIN! DON'T YOU COME NEAR MY FAMILY!"
Uncle Vernon hated anything to do with that unnatural magic school and its strange students. And he threw the receiver back onto the telephone as if dropping something dangerous.
The noisy argument that had followed had been one of the worst ever.
"HOW DARE YOU GIVE THIS NUMBER TO PEOPLE LIKE—PEOPLE LIKE YOU!" Uncle Vernon had shouted so angrily that his mouth water flew at Harry.
Ron clearly realized that he'd got Harry into trouble, because he hadn't called again. Harry's other best friend from Hogwarts, Hermione Granger, hadn't been in touch either. Harry thought that Ron had warned Hermione not to call, which was a pity, because Hermione, the cleverest witch in Harry's year, had non-magical parents, knew perfectly well how to use a telephone, and would probably have had enough sense not to say that she went to Hogwarts.
So Harry had had no word from any of his magical friends for five long weeks, and this summer was turning out to be almost as bad as the last one. There was just one, very small improvement: after promising that he wouldn't use her to send letters to any of his friends, Harry had been allowed to let his owl, Hedwig, out at night.
