Orphans 》Delphi Riddle's Story

Autumn mornings-Part 1

(Holy shit she is so beautiful *faints*)

》The 3rd of October 2012

Delphi woke up after 2 hours of sleep as the sun was slowly beginning to shine over the hills that were surrounding the grounds.
It was hard to believe that after the storm last night,everything around will get so luminous.

The mansion was cold and silent meaning that they weren't awake yet but Delphi was always a morning person.
She got off her bed,her hands still cold and her curly hair still messy. But that mess looked beautiful.

Delphini was a beautiful girl.
She looked so sweet all the time. A bit confused and shaky also but she was so different from the girls her age.
She was always a bit cold by nature,even as a child. She was always too quiet or too loud. There was no in between for her.

Difficult to understand huh?
She really was a mystery.

Delphi got closer to the framed picture in her room.

"Good morning mother. Father." she whispered and smiled sadly.
"Wish you were here."

She knew of her parents. Who they were,what they did,only the truth. But that never stopped her from loving them. And as wrong as it sounds,she even considered her father a role model because of his traits. That wasn't the best thing but that's what she felt like.
She was so much like them when they were young: intelligent,cunning,determined,beautiful and powerful.

Suddenly someone knocked at the door.

Narcissa's POV

"Good morning Delphi" I said with a smile.

"Good morning aunt Narcissa." Delphi answered. She looked a bit tired but pretty as always. She reminded me so much of Bella and it was painful but I was glad she was here with us.

I nodded and stepped inside her room.

"How many times do I have to tell you that you can simply call me Narcissa? "

Delphi giggled.

"I'm sorry Narcissa. I just got used to the aunt part. I will try my best from now on. "

"Let me help you with the beddings."

"Thank you."

"How did you sleep last night?" I asked and hoped for the best answer.

Delphi's POV

"Pretty well" I lied.

"It doesn't look like that Delphi.." Aunt Narcissa added.

"No really. No worries Narcissa,I'm not tired."

I watched her as she was folding my blanket. She was so nice to help me.
I've always thought I own these people so much for all the things they did and still do for me but I never knew how to thank them enough for all.

"Thank you so much aun-Narcissa." I said and hoped she didn't hear the first thing I wanted to say.

She smiled,putting the pillows in their place.

"No worries Delphini."

"Delphi." I quickly said with a smirk. "Not Delphini,aunt Narcissa" I teased

"Delphi." She laughed. "I think I'll just leave n-

Aunt Narcissa was intrerupted by a powerful knock in the door. God was this the Hulk guy in the Muggle comics?

"HELLO DELPHIIIII" the person screamed.

I smiled to myself knowing exactly who it is.

"Hello Scorpius."

I opened the door and he got in followed by Draco and Lucius.
The little boy reminds me so much of his father. Same beautiful blonde hair,same dark eyes.. I wonder if Draco was that loud when he was 7 tho.
I liked Scorpius and I've always felt sorry for him. His mother died last year. She was a very good and wise woman but life is cruel. At least Scorp had Draco who was a great father.

"It's getting pretty crowded in here." Uncle Lucius said and we all laughed softly.

"Good morning " Draco tensed,somewhere behind his father.
"It will be a long day" he said,mischief in his voice.

________________________________

I know Astoria died when Scorpius was 13 and not when he was 6 but I changed this for the book because I wanted Delphi to be Scorp's friend and have someone she can relate to. This will affect the story in the future though but I think it's better this way.

I hope you enjoyed part 1 of this chapter!

Until the next time,nox
