Chapter 9: The First Conflict with Lily
The four of them made their way to the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom and found an empty seat to sit down. After a while, a female teacher came in, and after she finished the roll call, she picked up the textbook and began to read it word by word.
In her unwavering voice, Cynthia successfully fell asleep.
"Thea! Wake up, class is over! If you don't wake up, you won't have food! Regulus pushed his sleeping sister hard.
"What?! No more food?! Cynthia woke up suddenly, packed her schoolbag and ran out with her brother, "Hurry up!" Regulus, I don't want to go hungry on the first day of school! ”
The two hurried into the hall and sat down at the long Slytherin table.
"Thea, what's wrong with your face?" Lucius asked, looking at the red marks on the girl's face.
"Huh? What happened to my face? It's good, it's nothing! Cynthia said blankly.
"Poof!" Regulus couldn't hold back any longer and laughed out loud "She's been sleeping in Defence Against the Dark Arts class, and that's it. ”
Cynthia's face flushed when she heard this. "The teacher had been reading the textbook and I fell asleep," Cynthia quickly explained.
"Huh? Why is that Gryffindor girl eating at our long table? With Severus? Are they a couple? Cynthia asked, looking at the two men at the end of the long table.
"Ah, that's why Snape wasn't well received in Slytherin. It was his mudblooded friend, Lily Evans of Gryffindor, who had been following her all day and disgraced our Slytherins! Lucius scoffed.
"Muggle friends? It was obvious that Severus liked her very much, and she liked Severus very much, otherwise she wouldn't have come to eat at the Slytherin table! Cynthia looked at the two of them again.
I saw her get up and walk towards the two of them.
She patted the boy on the shoulder, "Hey! Good afternoon, Severus! Who is this? As he spoke, he looked at the red-haired girl on the side.
"Silver, who is she?" The red-haired girl glanced at Cynthia and asked.
"Uh, Lily, she's, she's Cynthia Black in first year." The boy seemed a little nervous. "Cynthia, this is my best friend, Lily Evans, who is also in second grade."
"Blake? What's your relationship with that Cyris Black? The red-haired girl raised her eyebrows and said in disgust.
Cynthia didn't seem to hear the disgust in the girl's words, and stretched out her hand and said, "Hello, Lily Evans, I'm Cynthia Black, it's nice to meet you!" As for the Ciris you mentioned, he is my brother. ”
The red-haired girl ignored her outstretched hand, turned to Severus, and said, "Severus, I'm full, let's go." You still don't want to be friends with these evil Slytherin dark wizards in the future! With that, he took Severus' hand and walked out of the hall.
Severus was dragged out by the girl, and then turned to Cynthia and said, "Sorry, Cynthia, Lily she just misunderstood Slytherin a little, she didn't mean anything wrong!" ”
Cynthia said with a cold face: "Severus, this is the first time I've heard it, it's okay, I don't care about her for your sake, if there is a next time, don't blame me for being polite!" With that, he turned around and left.
Severus saw her leave angrily and said to Lily, "Lily, Cynthia is very nice, and she helped me out on the train." ”
"Okay Sever, listen to what she says last, and you're welcome to me! Hmph, she's just a first-year freshman! Lily frowned and said, "Don't mention her again, there's no good guy in Slytherin, of course, Seaver, except for you!" If you're going to be friends with those dark wizards again, I'll ignore you! ”
"I see, Lily."
