HP Princess bravely enters Hogwarts

Speaking of Theodore, if we were to use a metaphor to describe his life before the age of seven, it would be a paradise-like life.

However, after the age of seven, his world seemed to fall into hell.

While his mother was still alive, he grew up in the arms of love, and everyone knew that old Nott loved Theodore's mother deeply.

The blooming roses around Nott Manor were his mother's favorite.

However, since his mother's death, old Nott has developed a deep dislike for his only son - even though when Theodore was a child, old Nott often held him in his arms and called him a gift from God to the Nott family.

But old Nott seemed to be convinced that it was Theodore's birth that caused his lover's physical weakness.

Since he was seven years old, Theodore has always been forced to learn all kinds of things and put on hypocritical masks to deal with the people around him.

The next day, the sun was shining brightly. Segnus wore a simple white dress and came to Nott Manor as promised. This time, she still did not choose to bring Draco with her.

The roses in the manor are vying for beauty and the air is filled with a faint floral fragrance.

Theodore had been waiting at the entrance of the manor. With a gentle smile on his face, he handed Segnus a bunch of freshly picked roses.

"I'm so glad you came, Cygnus," said Theodore.

"Thank you for your invitation. The roses here are indeed beautiful." Segnus responded with a smile.

The attentive Theodore had already asked the elves at home to prepare Segnus' favorite snacks, and the two of them sat leisurely in the pavilion of Nott Manor.

Looking at Segnus' gentle and quiet profile, Theodore couldn't help but be a little dazed.

"I heard that you have been busy brewing potions recently. Don't work too hard and make sure to get enough rest," she said with concern.

Segnus took a sip of coffee, and the bitter taste made her wrinkle her nose.

She really couldn't understand why everyone loved to drink this bitter and hard-to-swallow coffee? At least she didn't like it at all.

Seeing this, Theodore quickly added some milk to her coffee and put two sugar cubes in it. He looked at Segnus embarrassedly and said, "I saw you drink coffee often, so I thought you liked the taste. I'm so sorry, I didn't know you actually don't like it."

Seignus was a little embarrassed. Was she supposed to say that she drank coffee just because she felt it made her look more profound? Obviously, she couldn't say that.

"It's okay, Theodore, you don't have to be so cautious." Segnus smiled slightly, trying to hide his embarrassment

"I don't actually hate coffee, I'm just not used to its bitter taste."

Theodore listened, smiled with relief, and gently stirred the coffee in the cup to allow the milk and sugar to fully blend.

“You don’t seem very happy.”

Although Theodore's mouth was smiling, his eyes betrayed him.

The ice-lake-colored eyes drooped slightly, rippling with thick fog that could not be melted

"I'm fine, try it and see if it's sweet enough?"

Theodore pushed the stirred coffee in front of Segnus, who took a sip of it.

Her frowning brows relaxed slightly, and a smile gradually crept into the corners of her eyes.

"Not bad, Theodore, you really have talent"

This wasn't the first time he'd been praised by Segnus.

But it was the first time that she praised him when they were alone.

"Thank you. If you like, you can come to Nott Manor often in the future."

"That's not what I'm talking about"

She knew from the first time they met that she and Theodore were of the same kind

Theodore was stunned, a confused look appeared on his face, and his eyes slowly moved to Segnus's face.

The little princess who was well protected by Malfoy was an existence that he could not touch.

“You can live better than you are now”

Segnus' words made Theodore stunned again. The eldest lady who grew up in love told him that he could live a better life.

But he is a monster who grew up carrying his father's anger

Yes, monster.

Old Nott often called Theodore an emotionless monster because he seemed unable to cry.

He didn't even cry when his mother died. He just stood by the bed and watched her, watched his father cry while holding her, and watched her being sent to St. Mungo's.

Watching her buried

Is he sad? He doesn't know, he just feels like his heart is being strangled, but he can't cry.

Theodore looked at the naive girl in front of him, and his dark eyes suddenly wanted to destroy her.

Why does she have everything, family, friendship, and even the potion he is most proud of?

But my trembling heart suddenly calmed down when I met Cygnus

Maybe it's because she deserves it, the optimistic little sun, this sun also brings him warmth, let her shine in the sky first

He can't live a better life, he needs to atone for his sins, maybe it's really because of him that his mother died

Seeing Theodore still in a daze, Segnus, who was holding a cup of coffee, finally couldn't help it.

"Theodore, are you listening to me?" Segnus put down the coffee cup in her hand and gently pushed his arm.

Theodore came back to his senses and nodded slightly.

"I'm listening, Cygnus. It's just... sometimes I feel that there are some things that we can't change." His voice was low, as if it came from the bottom of his heart.

It's not that he can't change, but that he doesn't want to change. He is a sinner of the Nott family. If he wants to change, wait until his soul and bones rot together.

As for Theodore's pessimistic thoughts, Segnace knew that he couldn't change them in a short time, so he could only let nature take its course. Maybe time would erase his pain.

"Okay Theodore, cheer up, maybe I'll have another cup of coffee."

"As long as you want, the door of Nott Manor will always be open to you."

And I just need to guard my light in the noisy corner

The Nott Manor seemed very lonely in the afternoon, except for the roses blooming in the manor that were emitting fragrance.

Looking at the increasingly beautiful roses, Segnus suddenly spoke

"I remember you were almost twelve, Theodore."

If I remember correctly, Theodore's birthday was when the roses were in full bloom last year.

Theodore paused while stirring Seconas's coffee and pursed his lips.

"the day after tomorrow"

“Will there be a birthday party this year?”

"No way, you know, my father doesn't like me celebrating my birthday"

In fact, he never had any birthday party since his mother died. After all, his father thought he was the one who killed his mother, even though he was only seven years old at that time.

His ice-blue eyes dimmed immediately. Actually, he didn't like celebrating his birthday either.

“What gift do you want this year?”

The afternoon sun shines on the girl's face. The fine hair looks like a freshly picked peach under the sunlight. Her eyes are slightly curved, hiding an indescribable smile.

Theodore opened and closed her mouth, then turned her face away embarrassedly, a blush creeping up her cheeks.

Seeing this scene, the arc of Segnus's mouth became even bigger.

"Just tell me, what do you want?"

"I heard you embroidered a Chinese purse for Draco before"

At this point, Theodore stopped and looked at Segnus seriously.

“Please embroider one for me too.”

This was the first time Theodore had spoken up and said what he wanted since they had known each other. Before, he had always accepted whatever Segnus had given him. As long as it was something she gave him, he liked it.

Cygnus didn't understand why he wanted a purse. She had given Draco the one she had embroidered for fun because she was bored. Purses were not worth much.

But now that he has said it, he will be sad if I don't agree.

"Okay, do you want something embroidered on it? Like, your name?"

"Yours, embroider your name, Cygnus"

The last sentence was said hesitantly.

I have to say, shy Theodore is really fun.

The time spent with friends always passed quickly. As the sky gradually darkened, Cygnus returned to Malfoy Manor.

There is no way, Lucius set up a door lock for her

Must be home before 8 o'clock

"You went out alone again today."

When Segnus got home, she saw Draco with red eyes crying.

"You clearly said you would never leave me again, you lied."

The young boy was wearing gray satin pajamas, his bare feet stepping on the carpet, his eyes full of accusations against Segnus.

"Draco, I think we need to talk."

Segnus really doesn't understand why this brother is so clingy. Even Chi He is not so clingy.

Draco's eyes widened when he heard this.

"You still want to talk to me? Do you have someone else as a brother?"

How can that be! My sister said she wanted to talk to him because she thought he was too clingy and asked him to stay away.

He doesn't want it!

Segnus smiled bitterly, sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing for a younger brother to be too naive

Draco's gray-blue eyes were filled with anxiety, and his platinum hair looked even more dazzling under the light.

The young boy pursed his lips tightly and his body trembled slightly, like an abandoned animal.

"No one else but you."

Cygnus walked up to him, gently stroked his hair, and spoke in a firm but gentle tone.

"I just want to tell you that I need my own space, but that doesn't mean I'm going to leave you."

She used delicate words to try to make the little boy understand her feelings.

Draco's eyes gradually became confused, and he looked up at Cygnus, as if trying to understand her words.

He sniffed and calmed down a little.

"Then will you take me with you when you go out next time?" His voice was a little cautious, for fear of hearing a negative answer.

Cygnus smiled slightly, stood on tiptoes and kissed his forehead gently: "Of course, I'm always here whenever you want."

She knew that all the little boy needed was her company and love.

She looked at Draco and her eyes became firm: "Now, go take a shower and have a good rest. Tomorrow, we will go to Diagon Alley."

Hearing this, Draco's eyes lit up instantly, he nodded, turned and ran to the bathroom.

Looking at his back, Segnus sighed softly.

She knew that she had a heavy responsibility to protect this innocent little boy and let him grow up happily, just to make up for her own childhood.
