CHAPTER 3: WEIRD DAY OFF
----------------

'Dadddd... ' Kit shook her father, desperately trying to wake him. 'WAKE UP!! ' still nothing.
Albus shook his head. 'I don't think his waking darling, he did get home very late last night'
'Whyyyyy. I barely see himm' she screamed.
'Well it's not my fault, I barely see him either, in actual fact it's my aunt's fault' he replied.
'Well t-t-tell her to let him off more'
'I can't I am sorry. ' he desperately wanted Scorpius home more as well as their daughter but Hermione was strict, he knew that, she didn't reason kindly.

By the time Scorpius made his way downstairs, Kit was playing with some puzzles and wide awake. 'Morning or should I say afternoon' Albus laughed, walking over to Scorpius to ruffle his hair then fix it again. 'Hey stop! ' he laughed like always trying to bat Albus away. 'I can't help it love you know I can't'
'Is it really afternoon? '
'Well it's close'
'Ugh I am sorry'
'Don't apologize, I know how tough work can be'
~
They sat down with their daughter at the table, kit was still playing with her puzzles, with much concentration. Her eyes narrowed as she licked her lips and put the last piece in. Suddenly the puzzle began to spin, kit jumped back, Scorpius threw his arms over his face as it scattered their way.
'No!' She kicked in fury. 'Now I have to do it again' the paper that sat on the counter flew around her. Scorpius and Albus passed a worrried glance at each other. 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘥𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘦𝘳. 'Kit calm' Albus said getting up and pulling her onto his lap. Her brown hair was all messy from the paper flying about. Scorpius caught the files as they floated down.
'I don't want to... R-re'
'Redo' Scorpius corrected as she struggled pernouncing the word. 'We know and we can help but first me and your dad need a talk' Kit nodded, falling softly off Albus' lap.

Albus followed Scorpius next door and flopped on the sofa.
'What happened? ' Scorpius paced, Albus was used to this.
'Maybe she has something we don't know of, we never got enough info on her biological parents, you know'
'True' he still paced.
'But the question is how? How do we help her'
'She needs to learn how to control her abilities... So I'll talk to Hermione tomorrow about it'
'Ok what do we do in the meantime?' Albus got up, looking though at their daughter that was tracking him with her chocolate brown eyes, she couldn't hear was was being said.
'I don't know' Scorpius turned and faced Albus making eye contact, look Albus returned was the same as his, 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘥, 𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘯, 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘵 𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘦.
