He sat there listening. They were fighting again. It was best to wait until they were done. His father was a muggle. His mum was a witch. His father despised magic.
He heard his mum trying to make him understand. Understand that magic wasn't bad. But he wouldn't listen. He never listened. He heard the familiar sound of a door being slammed.
He cautiously went downstairs. "Severus?" his mom asked. "Yes, mum." he replied. "Go to the park. It's safer there."
When he got there, there were two girls there. One was a witch. The other was not. The muggle girl made fun of the witch. She said she was a freak. The boy hid behind a bush and watched. At least until the witch headed his way.
He quickly got out of the bush. She seemed startled. "What did you do that for?" she asked. "Sorry," he mumbled, "What's your name?" "Lily," she replied, "What's yours?" "Severus," he said, "Your a witch." She laughed. "No I'm not. Witches don't exist." "Look, I'll show you." Then he turned a leaf into a butterfly. "You will be going to Hogwarts this year."
