Black-and-white - life is beautiful (Translation)

77. Epilogue 1

"Max, are you coming please?"
"What is Daddy?", Grinning, the 11-year-old stormed towards Harry and just threw himself on his lap.
"Wow, have you grown again? .if you go on like this I will have to sit on you soon. "
The boy laughed loudly and fell to his father around his.
"It would be fun. But would Dad be so excited about it? "
."You know Sev, he would find that as funny as his children."
"Mhm, what did you want?"
Harry motioned for his youngest to sit next to him on the sofa so they could have a better conversation.
."I just wanted to make sure that you were really happy with your decision? You know we love you all the same, no matter how you want to live your life, it is only important to us that you are happy. .so if you changed your mind, you still have time. "
"You want us to be happy and that we don't harm anyone like Draco and Uncle Percy once did."
."You're spending too much with the triplets, you shouldn't even know about Draco yet."
"All right, Daddy, we're old enough to realize that not everyone can be good. But Draco has changed a bit, hasn't it? "
."In a way he has. He still loves Tom Riddel but now he has realized that this love would always have been one-sided."
"And he regrets his actions, doesn't he?"
Harry shrugged.
."At least his parents said that, but he will stay with the house elves as servants for the rest of his life. Regardless of remorse or not, he set the course for his life many years ago. You can't shake it anymore. "
.the little boy nodded.
"I won't be promised, and neither will my siblings, very big word of honor. Pointed tooth parole. "
Harry ruffled his son's tangled hair, which he had clearly inherited from him.
"I know it. .so is it really what you want? "

The youngest member of the Snape family sighed, not because this conversation had happened so often, but because his parents worried too much. At least if you asked Max.
."Daddy, you and Dad you worry about us unnecessarily. Yes, I'm happy as it is. I don't feel bad just because I can't use a magic wand. "
."Many children would be jealous of their siblings," Harry countered.
"Yes, if the parents preferred these children or if the siblings show off their power. But we don't have all of that. .I never considered it a flaw not to have the same powers as the others, and I'm not the only one who can't swing a wand. .the goblins can't all handle this, but do they lead a worse life because of that? Or the centaurs? The spiders? The water beings? Alice? Do you know what Grandpa Argus once said to me? .that he's glad I didn't have to grow up like him. You didn't like him because he was a squib. Even his own family wanted to cast him off. And that made him grumpy and bitter, as he called it. .it was only when Dad gave him his own magic that his life changed. "
"This option is also open to you," Harry reminded his youngest.
"But I don't need it, is it so difficult to understand that I'm happy even without magic?"
."No, of course not, if you don't want and need them nobody will force you to do it. I just wanted to make sure again. "
"I'm sure. I mean, I really have everything you could want. .great parents, funny siblings who still spoil me totally, especially the twins.I will also become a white vampire in a few years. My confidante is the first Eunix lady and the coolest thing I have all the skills of a nekomata. "
"And all without the furry appendages. .You already know that I envied you and the twins often because you don't have to bother with an annoying tail? "
For clarification, Harry wiped through the air with the one he was waving in front of Max's face. .the latter caught him and stroked him laughing.
"I heard the stories, and even now you sometimes swear wildly around, especially when suddenly there are two tails without warning. We, however, have always loved him. "
."I know you especially liked to bite into it when your teeth grew. Fortunately, this experience is spared. Children's teeth are sharp. You are the strongest Nekomanta of us Snapes, "Harry said proudly.
.and that was true, although Max had never really shown the external characteristics of these cats, but all their abilities. .he could conjure up illusions that even fooled Harry and he also kept busy with late cats. ..Harry also knew very well that his youngest kept chatting to his deceased relatives. Especially with Dudley. Another talent that neither the vampire cat nor his older daughters were capable of. .but here too there was no jealousy, just admiration.
