After my last encounter with my mom, weeks passed by fast and there it was the end of the semester. I corresponded with mother through letters. She told me that her sister with her family would be waiting for me at the platform. Also, she instructed me to tell people that we had an argument and my parents decided it would be best if I started living with my aunt. If I wanted to give more details to my close friends it was fine, but it was best if only trusted ones knew the truth. I didn't told anyone, was too scared of their reaction towards my new status as a blood traitor. And for the whole seer thing, I couldn't feel comfortable enough telling than that, because it would lead to questions that I didn't want to answer.

My friends seemed worried, they didn't insist about the whole nightmare incident, but they kept asking how I was, mostly Blaize, Theo and Pansy. But Crabbe and Goyle were completely indifferent towards it. I kind of expected them to have news from their parents, that maybe my father had told one of their parents about some disagreement that he had with me and how from now on I was no longer part of the family. But my father was weirdly silent, we didn't correspond frequently, but after my met with mother, he didn't reach out.

Something else that was bothering me, it was Potter looks towards me. He kept staring at me since the kitchen encounter, with that same look from before, like he was trying to solve a puzzle. To be fair, I always ended up looking in his direction, this was nothing new, ever since we knew each other, I somewhat ended up looking at his direction. But now it was more frequent, and he kept looking back with quite insistence. Pansy kept pestering me about it, she insisted that no one looks that much towards someone if they're not interested and that my teasing towards him could mean something else.

She had some sort of reason, I used to have some sort of crush on him, but that was when I was a kid fascinated by his story. But my crush on Potter stayed in the past, It disappeared in first year when he denied my friendship. In its place there was only annoyance. First, my constant staring was only merely curiosity, he was always getting into trouble, it was truly amusing. And yes, I liked teasing him, but it was just for fun. Well, not going to denied that having his attention was a little bit nice, even if it was just anger, it was better than nothing. But that didn't mean that I still had a crush.

Anyway, he was getting on my nerves with his staring. But I didn't say anything, merely because avoiding him seemed like the best outcome to prevent visions. He always attracted trouble and I have enough problems. That was quite easy, we only had a few weeks of class, so it was already the end of the semester, would only see him after the summer.

But the end of the semester also meant one thing, that my friends would eventually know about the whole blood traitor thing. After all, my new family would be waiting for me at the platform where everyone could see it. I was terrified of that moment, feared their looks of judgment. So, instead of talking with them beforehand, I just pretended everything was fine. I wanted to enjoy these good moments with them.

Right now we were at the train, I was lost in thought while watching them experimenting Every Flavor Jelly Beans, they're daring each other to experiment the disgusting flavors. It was a contest, the one who eated the most disgusting flavors without flinching would win, the reward would be the Salazar Slytherin Chocolate Frog Card, so they're invested. Blaize was really good at it, he was normally calm and collected, so he could eat the worst and still keep a calm expression. Goyle was a good opponent, he actually didn't seemed to mind the flavors. Theo sucked at this, he was really expressive. Crabbe was even worse, because he had a sensitive stomach.

"Are you sure you not going to join them?" Pansy asked.

"Yeah, not in the mood" I answered. "What about you?"

"Not a huge fan of Chocolate Frog Cards" she answered. "But I thought you like it, you know how rare it is to find the Salazar Slytherin."

"It isn't" I answered. "But I'm not in the mood to play."
