A couple of weeks passed, Lesso and I continued to see each other. It wasn't like before, I trusted now. I knew what I was going against and hell if I loved it.

"Cher, my God, I haven't seen you in a lifetime Dear. Where did you go?" said Dovey, popping up at any moment as I walked, I think she was purposely waiting for me by the door. 

"I've been very busy you n-now with the b-boys. They have schooled and just started there are many t-things to do" I stammered hoping she would not follow me to my half. 

"You're the teacher with the fewest classes in the whole school, how can you be so busy?" insisted Dovey.

"I don't just have classes in the school of good, you know it well Clarissa"

"Okay okay you're as busy as you want," she resigned. But she continued to follow me. "Come to the tea of tomorrow with the professors of good, don't you?"

"No, I would have warned you, here... I don't think I can come," I said as I continued to walk briskly down the aisle with Clarissa barely standing behind me. 

"Are you kidding? What more do you have to do?" was starting to get on my nerves. I stopped and looked at her. 

"Listen Clarissa I'm really very busy, I have better things to do than have tea with you and with the usual four colleagues whose shoe size I also know by now" I looked at her one last time and left. I heard snorting but I didn't turn around. I know, I shouldn't have treated Clarissa like that, after all she is always good to me. But enough is enough.

I went down to the first floor and crossed the bridge, I arrived at the castle of evil but before moving into my new room (or rather deposit, since I slept there less than expected), I went to the library. But I couldn't get over the door that someone pulled me by the arm and trapped me against the wall. 

"Look who you see" she smiled at me as usual. 

"As if you weren't expecting me," I replied smiling, and I was happy to see her too.

"It took you a long time princess" she replied, demanding an explanation, still with that damn smile on her face. I think I will die.

"Clarissa didn't let me go anymore, she wanted to force me to go for tea w-" Needless to say, even this time I did not finish the sentence that kissed me, she took her hand away from the wall to put it on me. There was nothing left to say now, and a really tempting offer had just presented itself to me.

The library was empty, as always. I always wonder why it exists, since students of evil are as interested in books as I'm interested in having Tea.

As we kiss, Lesso's hand makes its way under my skirt, but I block it immediately. Before I get to the point where I can't go back. "Hey hands down" (okay I realize that said so can be intense in other ways but this is not the case) "

I have to go to class" She rolled her eyes and snorted broke away from the wall and looked at me with crossed arms. 

"Can't you get replaced?" she replied angrily. 

"And with what motivation, do we hear?"

 "I'm not a relevant motivation for you?" she didn't say it angrily or grumpy, but with that usual smirk that could mean anything or nothing.

That question struck me all the same, even though it had been expressed in a joking tone, I could not recover immediately. What if she asked that question on purpose to see if I cared about her? But in the end I concluded that she was just joking and wanting to do the fake offense because I didn't stay there with her. Even if it wasn't true. I spent all day with her. Every minute, every moment I was free I wanted to spend it with her.

"Yes, you are, and don't look at me like that. You know I have to go" I recomposed myself and before leaving I gave her a kiss on the fly. It was evident that she did not expect it, I could see her shocked face as I waved her hand.


I headed to class, fortunately at an excellent time so as not to arouse suspicion.

"Good morning Hester, how come here at the door?" I greeted the girl smiling as usual, even if she did not want to show it she was a really good and intelligent girl was always in the company of her two friends.

"We used his classroom with Professor Manley" "Only he decided to give me a failure so I threw my creature at him"

Honestly I would have appreciated a "I'm sorry for your classroom" or a "Excuse me professor" but basically this is the school of evil I can not demand an apology for a classroom from my students.

Also it's something Hester would do so I thought it wouldn't be wise to ask for details about Bilious's condition. Especially for my health. 

"If you try to open the door, you will find that there is not much left of the classroom," she replied with a bored air. 

"Well, we're going to have class in the garden. Call your fellow Hester back."

About a quarter of an hour later, Hester and I had found the whole class, who had left happy and content. Assuming that we definitely wouldn't have lectured since my classroom was half destroyed. But after what I had given up to do this lesson, I certainly wouldn't have given up so easily. So all unhappy and above all not very content, I made them sit on the grass and started the lesson.



That evening, as I crossed the bridge, I could very well say that I was immersed in my thoughts. I thought I was happy for the first time. I could hardly believe it. In the morning I no longer have to drag myself out of bed, in fact I could not wait to get out of my room especially if it is the one in the castle of good. The only thing that distracts me from this happiness is that damn bottle that I keep hidden, what if someone were to come looking for me? What if it hurts the people I care about? What if I can't make it this time? 

At that moment I had only one solution to all this. Drink it and don't think about it anymore. It probably wouldn't have had any effect on me since I had my father's DNA, but he wasn't sure if I was totally immune to it.

I approached the edge of the bridge and the only noise I heard was the "pluff" of the bottle falling into the river.
