HJP's POV

Harry accepted the teatray from Bella and climbed the stairs, joining Shingo on his own bedroom. He set down the tray in the desktop and set up the tea as the boy stayed kneeling on the floor with the look of someone who had kicked the puppy.

"What is her name, Shatei?" He wondered and the boy only tensed even more. Bull's-eye. "What did you do? Pull on her hair? Her skirt?"

"Broke her doll..."

Harry accepted the doll that the boy was taking from his bag that he had brought along. He groaned at seeing it was a porcelain doll.

"You're lucky, Snape-sensei has 'magical' glue."

Shingo looked up surprised. Harry picked the bag, set the doll back inside and took it downstairs, the shy boy tailing him ashamed. Professor Snape accepted the bag and looked at the broken doll before he looked up at the boy.

"I'll see what I can do, Tsukino-kun." The man argued.

"Thank you, Hakase. It's a very important doll. Mika-chan won a contest with it. She makes them herself..."

Professor Snape's lips thinned.

"Were you being picked on by other boys?"

Shingo raised his head immediately and looked surprised at the man.

"How did you...?"

"That's how I lost the friendship with Harry's" [mother.] The man argued. "Go apology or you'll regret for the rest of your life."

Professor Snape turned and entered the lab with the doll's bag. Shingo looked at Harry surprised.

"How much do you like her?" Harry asked as they climbed again.

"Mika-chan's my best friend." Shingo offered.

Harry nodded and messed with his hair.

"Then go apology." He agreed. "Might sound cheesy but females are like that. If you want her friendship then you have to prove it to her. Bring her the doll and explain how sorry you were."

"Aniki..."

Harry grinned back.

"There's school friends: those you talk with on a nowadays basis. Then there are real friends: a real friend will handle you at your best and at your worst." Shingo nodded. "Usagi-chan is that friend to me. Now is this girl that friend to you? Or is she a school friend?"
