After having waited a few hours, Dempsey and I decided to depart for our scheduled meeting with Snape. We didn't want to be late, or else he might just think we were trying to waste his time.
As we got to his office, I knocked. Nothing for a few seconds, then : ''Enter". I opened the door and when i looked inside, he had actually set two chairs for us to sit on, which surprised both of us, as we never thought the potions master would even care about our comfort at all. So, we sat down and waited for Snape to indulge us.
''I see that you did not forget our meeting, now go on, I do not have all day, start explaining yourself Nomendia.'' I rolled my eyes slightly at his impatient tone but didn't comment on it.
''Well, where to start....there is a lot to tell'' He lifted his eyebrow slightly. I sigh then think on how to start the conversation.
''Well for starters'' I take off my eye patch to reveal my purple eye underneath. ''Here is what I'm hiding under this.'' Snape seems slightly taken aback by the fact that I simply showed him that, after all the secrecy I had expressed over it, but the surprise was gone as quickly as it came.
''I suppose I will have to start with what the deal is with my eyes.'' Snape simply nods ever so slightly to indicate wanting things to continue.
I stare at the ground, before finally starting my explanation. ''My mismatched eyes are the results of a very nasty curse that was put on me in fifth year. You see, ever since our sorting at Hogwarts there had always been people who expressed some form of disgust over me.''
After having finished my sentence, Dempsey who had been silent this whole time, spoke up.
''And eventually, it became over both of us. Though it was not always because I kept my friendship with Alzenia, some had some form of hate towards me because I was a half-blood, being a Slytherin, or being of the cheerful kind. For all I know it was a combination of all as well sometimes.'' Dempsey looked like he didn't want to recall everything, but he did.
I then took over the conversation again. ''Yes, however it seemed that when it came to hating on our friendship, no one came close to as bad as the hell spawn of a duo that constantly made it their life goal to harass us.'' I said with great disdain.
''Their names are Donovan Klemain, and Anastasia Zuman. Donovan was a Gryffindor, while Anastasia was a Slytherin, they also later became a couple, and I believe I have recently found out they are now married.''
Snape then spoke for the first time in a while. ''I do think I recall having miss Zuman in my house back when I was a student.'' Dempsey then spoke.
''Yeah, nasty business that, both pure-bloods too, just the cherry on top.'' Snape's eyes slightly narrowed at that. The long haired man simply put up his hands in mock defense.
''Hey, I don't hate Slytherin house, I am one after all, I'm simply saying that it's little shits like them who besmirch house reputations, especially Slytherin's.''
''Yeah, you can say that twice..'' I then replied. ''But back on to the main subject, theses two absolutely hated us, especially me, a pure blooded witch who not only isn't from Britain, but who also doesn't hold their beliefs, was housed in Hufflepuff, and who also has special magic and weird eyes, I was practically a flashing target to them.'' I say with clear annoyance.
Snape seemed to ponder on it, before asking a question. ''What were the circumstances with your particular eyes exactly..? Do they have any meaning? Or are they just an unnecessary distraction sure to bring attention..?''
I send the man a smile that doesn't reach my eyes before I reply. ''Are you implying that I only have my eyes to gain attention? What makes you think I wanted any of that..'unnecessary' attention? Or is that the opinion you hold of everybody? Do you feel.....ignored perhaps?''
