Love and Black Magic

Chapter two: Magic

Years had passed since that incident of her father's wand, which the little girl did not remember even a little.

It was a harmonious morning, the whisper of some people traveling outside their home could be heard through the window of little Black's room while accompanied by a scorching sun slipping through the curtains that would surely begin to melt the snow that still fell frequently. Calynn rose with the glow of the star on her face as she gave a yawn, she thanked it was a weekend because she could see Lily in a couple of hours. Although she knew Thana, Lily and Severus for a long time, she couldn't remember the exact day she had met them, it was probably when she was much younger and that is the reason, she couldn't remember it.

She got ready and went down quite emotionally for breakfast, she was full of energy and joy, she knew that Lily would not attend school and could meet her if Druella and Cygnus allowed her out.

"Good morning," said the little girl, arriving at the place where her father was sitting, with his breakfast at his side as he read a newspaper that he kept instantly when he heard little Black's voice.

"Until you wake up," her mother's voice added before leaving a dish in the dishwasher and sitting down at the table to finish what little was left of a juice that didn't look appetizing at all.

"It's Saturday," the little girl replied, suppressing an intonation of joy. "I want to greet Lilianne, she doesn't go to school today," Calynn said hopefully.

"That doesn't mean you don't have things to do," said the woman, rising from the table once more.

"But I don't go to school," Little Black replied confused, "Why have you never told me the reason I don't go to school if I'm only ten years old?" She asked slightly annoyed and confused.

"I already told you that school is not something you need, everything you know you have learned thanks to your father," said Druella, rolling his eyes, "you don't need to be instructed on issues that are not of the greatest relevance," she finished seriously.

"But when I grow up, what am I going to study?" Asked the distraught little girl.

"You don't need to go to school so you can get ahead, it's not essential if you know where to look," said the woman, losing her patience. "Enough questions."

Calynn just looked down and began eating the toasts prepared by her own mother in silence. She knew that every time she asked about something related to the study, she always got the same answer and it was no surprise that her mother avoided her doubts and decided to change the subject. After so many years she could not get a true answer about his absence from school and his desire to know the school persisted because, according to what Lily said, the school was incredible.

After the topic discussed, her father only limited himself to smiling, it seems that he did not know the reason that he stayed at home every day.

She rushed to wash the dishes to go out to the garden and reach her friends trying to avoid his mother's comments, apparently there was something about them that Druella did not accept.

Calynn said goodbye to her father in a hug and prepared to go out the door of the house, went down the steps of the porch with great care since the fear that they would break at any moment always kept her in mind. She walked along the same sidewalk that he had walked almost daily throughout her life, or so she supposed, only that he was now covered with copious snow and then turned slightly to the left in the direction of the majestic tree that, although It was slightly dry, it never ceased to exist, the snow on it only managed to make it a more special one.

She was going to greet Lily and Severus who were in the garden, sitting at the foot of the tree while their clothes turned white because of the snow attached to them.
