˜"*°•.˜"*°• it's nice to have a friend •°*"˜.•°*"˜
Persephone, she had friends. There was a lot she didn't have.Two parents, a stable job or stable father, but she had friends. Three of them.
One. Maria Marlette, she worked at the same restaurant on campus as Persephone. They connected by lying to customers who'd asked if the food was frozen or fresh. They never hung out outside of that.
Two. Tamy Brewox, a childhood best friend and neighbor. They grew distant as they grew older and Seph went to school. It was whatever. They were still there for each other every great while.
Three. Lane Dime, they talked at school no more no less.
Persephone, no Seph. Everyone called her Seph. Her real name was just so long. Yet she hung onto it like a child with their binkie. Her father had briefly mentioned it but Sirius had chosen it. If not her name then what did she have of him. A picture, a birthday card and a child support check once a month. After the shitshow that was her parents' relationship, her father returned to England. That left one Remus Lupin all alone yet again. He thought about getting rid of her. She could grow up in a rotation of shitty foster homes. But now Sirius would now have to pay for their creation for eighteen years, whether he was here or not.
Sirius wanted to be there. He did. But they were still in a war, and there was baby Harry, and he happened to be betrayed by someone he considered a friend. She visited here and there when she was younger. Once a month, then once every three months, once a year. Then never. But he always sent birthday cards. Never missed one. Even if he thought she was 9 for three years they meant something to her.
She looked at the folded cardstock in her hands. A big purple thirteen printed on the first. Seph didn't dare to look on the inside. Dad had just told her they were moving back to England. "Back" like it meant something the first time. The house would be smaller, quiter, just the two of them. She would have to change schools. Find a new job. Possibly see him again. Seph hadn't seen Sirius Black since she was seven, six maybe. God she needed a smoke.
"Got a light"
"Yup" Remus said before tossing it to his daughter.
"We're really gonna have to see him again"
"Yup"
Persephone no longer had friends, she no longer had anything.
