Severus's POV
October 31th 1981: Godric Hollow
I returned back home after a meeting. A green light shone out of the window. I ran into the house and found my wife on the floor inside the nursery. She was barely breathing and her body was severely damaged.
(Severus and his wife Esmeralda)
(One year old Adam)
"I'm so sorry Esme!" I said. "The Dark Lord spared Adam!" she replied. "I'll take care of him!" I said. You have to leave him away!" said Esmeralda.
I looked at my son, while tears filled my eyes. "He tortured me, because I knew too much about the future. He's after Adam too!" she said. "I'll never forget you!" I replied. "I love you...Severus!" said Esme, before she took her last breath.
I was holding my wife's dead body in my arms and tears was streaming down my face. I placed a kiss on her cold forehead.
I lifted up my son and he was sleeping in my arms. I wrapped him in a blanket and apparated away from my home.

I found a house and it was hard to say goodbye. "I love you so much Adam. I hope you one day understand why I had to leave you away!" I said and lay him gently down on the doorstep.
I kissed him on his forehead and knocked on the door. I hid behind a tree when the door opened. A woman lifted up him and walked into the house.
I thought he'd get a safe childhood with lots of love. If I only knew how badly they would treat him.
I saw three aurors walking around. They were looking for death eaters to send to Azkaban. I quickly disappeared from the place.
Aww, baby Adam is so cute💙
I hope you liked the chapter.
