The Potions Masters Daughter

Chapter 6:

Hey guys I am so sorry that I didn't upload sooner. School starts tomorrow and I was having friends over all the time to enjoy the last days of summer! :/

------------------------------------------

I had finally made my decision.

I wasn't going ot talk at all. I still thought I was just a game that my mother played.

I shook my head no so that the man would know that I wasn't going to talk.

I knew I was going to get a big beating from him for defying him, but I also knew that if he was like my mother the beating for talking would be worse.

He just looked confused, then his face turned bright red and he bent down so he was at my level.

He asked, "What did you just say?" In a manacing tone that fightened me beyond belief.

I flinched back waiting for the first hit to come. When it didn't come I  looked up at him with confusion.

He also had a thinking look on his face. Then he pinched the bridge of his nose and looked at me while forming a "o" wiht his mouth in an understanding sort of way.

He knelt down and took my hand and said to me in a much nicer tone, "Please just talk. I want to know what's goin gon I promise I won't hurt you at all if you do."

I looked at him questionally to see if he was sincere or not. It looked like he was being truthful so I turned my head to the ground so I was looking at my feet and shook my head to show that now I would talk.

I was stilll looking at my feet when I started to apologize by saying, "I'm sorry sir."

He looked confused and said, "About what?"

It was my turn to look cponfused so I just told him what I meant, "I'm sorry that I didn't tlak sir. I didn't mean to make you upset at all sir."

He looked at me and tilted my head upwards so that I was looking at him now.

Then after looking at me for about 30 seconds in complete silence he said, "It's perfectly fine Jessica. You didn't know any thing other then that I assume? But if you don't mind my asking, why did you not want to talk?"

I was stilll looking at him and while his steely exterior was intimidating his eyes held all the emotions for him. He was truely curious about why I wasn't talking.

He was nice and if this was my father I would want him to know all the things my "mother" did to me and ask him why he left me with her. So becasue of that I decided that I would tellhim everything that I knew. Even how my mother was towards me, something I had only ever talked about to Benny.

He had let go of my chin so I was free to look down again.

I said softly but clearly, "It's a rather long story sir are you sure you have to time ot listen to it?"

He shook his head yes and said, "I don't want to leave out anyhting though okay Jessica?"

He had asked it as a question but it was more of a statement that needed to be followed.

Almost as an afterthough he added, "You don't need to call me sir though. My name is Severus and sinvce I am calling you by your name its only fair you call me by mine."

I looked up and said, "OK I will in the future then sir- I mean Severus."

He nodded and his lips twitched up into something that must have been a smile.

I closed my eyes and thought of where to start.

I started from the beginning of all thew thing that I knew.
