HP let go of that little bat

"I think..." Justin half-bent down and looked at Lily, a little whispering: "My plan is to be closer than good friends..." He blinked after speaking.

Lily made an expression of sudden realization, and smiled and showed her small white teeth: "Hi, nice to meet you, Justin." She tugged at Severus' sleeve, and then heard the other party shouting, " Justin."

"They're cute," Justin said to Penny, standing up straight.He found out that he 'accidentally' talked to Lily just a little bit older, which caused the other party to hear what he said.The girl's face was covered by the scarf, only showing a pair of brown eyes looking at her.

"Brother..." A young female voice interrupted the delicate atmosphere between the two, and a leather gloved hand wrapped around Justin's arm.The girl has blond hair and slightly darker eyes than Justin's.

"Doris Weaver?" Lily remembered the girl she had had a brief conversation with on the school bus.

"Hello, Lily, Petunia. I didn't expect to meet you here." After Doris greeted the two sisters and saw Severus standing aside, the gleam in her eyes told everyone that she was very fond of this boy. Interested: "Excuse me, is this...?"

"This is Severus Snape." Justin introduced.He never understood what his sister was thinking, so he could only smile apologetically at Severus.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Snape. I'm Doris Weaver, please call me Doris." She took off her gloves and held out her hand.

"Nice to meet you." Severus quickly shook the girl's hand and let go, his voice dry.He didn't like the person in front of him very much, and his intuition told him that Miss Weaver had a purpose.

"Of course. I think we'll have many chances to meet again in the future." Doris licked her lips until she was taken away by her brother, her eyes never leaving Severus.

"It seems that our beautiful Miss Doris has been deeply fascinated by Severus." Petunia joked.

"Hmph." Lily snorted coldly and turned to look for the adults, leaving behind Severus who was looking at the culprit angrily.

The adults didn't know what happened, they just looked curiously at the awkward Lily and the bewildered Severus.Originally, Severus planned to explain to Lily, but Lily's repeated avoidance behavior made him feel unreasonable.It's not his fault, Severus thought so, so he didn't take the initiative to find Lily at all.

Until Mrs. Snape took her son to say goodbye to the Evans family, the two little guys had no intention of reconciling.Holding my son's hand and walking on the snow, the snow has accumulated so thickly for two consecutive days that there will be creaking sounds when I step on it.Looking at her son who was walking aside and bowed his head silently, Mrs. Snape pulled down the scarf to reveal her mouth: "Severus" Mrs. Snape thought about her words and asked, "Are you and Lily good friends? "

"Yeah." Severus' voice came from behind the thick scarf.The expected answer, Mrs. Snape nodded.

"Then why do good friends still have a cold war?"

"I didn't start it." Severus looked up at his mother, "I didn't do anything wrong."

"Then you mean, it's Lily's fault?"

"That's not what I meant." Severus lowered his eyelids as he told his mother what had happened.Unexpectedly, after finishing speaking, my mother laughed instead.

"Severus. If one day, a boy looked at Lily like that, would you be angry?"

"I won't." Mrs. Snape felt her little hand tightened with this sentence, and she shook her head.

"Severus, running away won't alleviate the pain." Mrs. Snape knelt down to brush the snowflakes off her son's clothes, and there was a small face in her black eyes: "If you are hurt, healing will bring pain, But then it will get better. If you ignore it, it will get infected, it will rot, and there will be more pain. At the same time, the price you will pay may be greater.”

"Mother, I took the initiative to find her."

"But she avoids you. You think she's being vexatious," Mrs. Snape pointed out.

"..."

"Girls need to be coaxed." Mrs. Snape said with a smile: "Although I am not beautiful..., but if I am praised for being beautiful, I will feel happy. Even if I know it is not true, it is just A compliment."

"So I need to, praise her?"

"Not all. I think what she needs most now is a sense of security. She is afraid that you will be robbed and go to be friends with more beautiful and outstanding girls."

"I won't. That Weaver…" Severus didn't finish the sentence.

"What if she was a wizard? Would you be friends with her if she was?" Severus didn't answer, and Mrs. Snape saw the struggle in his eyes.She scowled: "Severus, you still look down on Muggles, don't you?"

"I..." Severus looked at his mother, speechless.

"I'm sorry Severus. I'm really sorry. It was my mistake..." Mrs. Snape arched her back in frustration, "As for your father...it's my fault that I didn't protect you .”

"No, mother. You've done a good job. It's not your fault."

"I could have taken you away. But I didn't... Severus, did it ever occur to you that it was your father who looked down on you, not Muggles. If he was a wizard and I was a Muggle, would you still Will you look down on Muggles?"

"I don't know." Severus shook his head: "I won't look down on you. I also like Mr. and Mrs. Evans, including Petunia..."

After hearing her son's words, Mrs. Snape realized the crux of the problem.Severus's world was too small to have a home that couldn't be called home.Before he met the Evans family, there were only two types of people in his eyes: one was himself and the other was his father.

With a submissive wizard mother and a violent and alcoholic Muggle father, after a long time he thinks he will look down on or even hate Muggles, and I just tell him to go to Hogwarts... that will not be good, it will only be worse .Especially after hearing other people talking about that guy...

Mrs. Snape couldn't forget that when she went to the potion shop in Diagon Alley some time ago, several wizards sat at the door and whispered about the 'man whose name cannot be spoken'.Curiously, she asked the boss who collected the potions, and the kind boss told her that it would be better not to mention it in public in the future, and suggested that she subscribe to the "Daily Prophet", although it wasn't all the truth.

Finally, before leaving, she can go to the Broken Ax Bar, maybe there will be what she needs.After finishing speaking, the boss handed over a new batch of orders and required materials to Mrs. Snape, and then went to the counter to greet new guests.
