[HP] A Brief History of Time

Mrs. Zabini had been married six times before giving birth to Blaise. Her surname changed with her husband. Most people have long forgotten that this charming and dangerous black widow died before she was married. Last name.In addition to herself, there is also her son who has his mother's surname as his middle name.

Now this beauty, who has long since lost her interest in marrying, is sitting cross-legged on the sofa with bare feet in a loose posture, reading a letter written to her by the only beloved little man in her life.

Compared with Blaise's cheerful tone in the letter, Mrs. Zabini is much calmer.Although there were only two Clackenthorpe girls left in her generation, she had no urgency to recognize relatives.As early as more than ten years ago, the two sisters parted ways because of the conflict of views.After so many years of living separately, she probably only knows that her younger sister married a high-achieving student who is not in good health, and the other party probably doesn't even know how many husbands she has married.All in all, the sisterhood is pretty light.

She put down the parchment in her hand, and picked up the photo attached to the letter.The moment the Muggle photo was frozen, the blond girl was standing in the greenhouse facing a large group of devil's nets, with a calm expression on her face.Mrs. Zabini, who also graduated from Hogwarts, could tell at a glance that this was a herbal medicine class for first-year students. The professor was probably leading them in a circle to observe and learn about various simple and common plants.She looked carefully, and suddenly noticed Virginia's hand in the photo. The white, tender and sensual hand was gently resting on the vines of the devil's net. The conflict between white and black was quite conspicuous.

"Interesting." She murmured.

Mrs. Zabini did not want to discourage her son's enthusiasm.She walked to the table, took out a pen and paper, and began to consider the words, so that Blaise could feel the great surprise of a mother who hadn't heard from her relatives for a long time on the parchment.The surprise came so suddenly and violently that she was incoherent and had no idea, and everything depended on the only man in the family.

It is conceivable that when Blaise received this reply letter, he felt such overwhelming pride and great sense of responsibility in his heart.Little did he know that the letter contained only one thought—"Take it all you want, son"—and he was already scratching his chin and rummaging in the closet for clothes that would make him look extra mature The well-behaved and beautiful Hufflepuff sister called herself "brother" with great reliance.

Draco turned a deaf ear to his troubles in the dormitory, he waved his wand, and the parchment lying on Brace's bed flew into his hand.Draco glanced through it, and apart from praising Mrs. Zabini's language skills, he didn't get any useful information.

He flew the parchment back to the original place, and when Blaise noticed the movement and turned his head, he looked back at him calmly, as if he hadn't done anything just now.

Blaise looked left and right, always feeling that something was wrong.So Draco, who guessed what he was thinking, kindly told him something to divert his attention, "You always have to wear school robes except Sundays."

Blaise looked at all kinds of colorful and flamboyant shirts that he turned out, and then turned his head to look at the school gown that was always invariably black and autumn, and suddenly felt sad and angry.But soon he calmed down, "Even if I'm wearing a school robe, I'm different." He picked out a pink shirt and compared it with him, humming and decided to wear this shirt on school day tomorrow. In the robe, he can inadvertently reveal a section of collar or a section of sleeve.

Draco on the side suddenly felt that Mrs. Zabini was too indulgent to her son in many aspects, such as Blaise's aesthetics...

It would be nice to have Brees in the lead.Draco lay down on the bed with his arms crossed.As long as it came to Sunday, Virginia disappeared without a trace on the campus.She was nowhere to be seen even at mealtimes, the school kitchen was just down the corridor leading to the Hufflepuff dorms.Such a unique geographical location results in only a few people at the long Hufflepuff table every Sunday.

Was this how she spent her last life on campus?Living in the cave all the time, no wonder he didn't notice her.

Draco turned over.Quietly think back to those childish and meaningless quarrels in school in my previous life.He has always lived like a self-satisfied villain, until the war made him see clearly his cowardice and incompetence; he saw clearly that Malfoy was so vulnerable under the supercilious power; he saw clearly that he had no power, no status Ornament's father is nothing more than an ordinary man.The gap between reality and ideals, and the emptiness and confusion after the war made him at a loss.He began to indulge in alcohol and partying.At the end of the indulgence, he lived in St. Mungo with his illness, his father's disappointment and his mother's pain.

Then he met Virginia.Ten years later, Virginia was working in St. Mungo's. Her expression was far less vivid than it is now, like a pool of stagnant water, with a slight gloomy look between her brows.Lying on the hospital bed unable to move, he not only hated life, but also hated himself.So this taciturn ward medical staff became an outlet for him to vent his anger.He picked on her sad face, disliked her dullness, and even provoked her with obscene words, but she was indifferent.But he didn't know when, the purpose behind his finding faults quietly changed.

Brace's solo shirt show is over.Draco heard him climb into bed and let out a pleasant bedtime grunt.

"Draco? Are you asleep?" Blaise lay on the bed, turned twice, and suddenly remembered something, "Hey, are you and Vinnie real?"

Draco was a little upset when he interrupted his memory, and he became even more upset when he heard this question.He said in a muffled voice, "Why do you think Vile is your sister?"

Why didn't you recognize Virginia in your previous life?That was the question Draco really wanted to ask.He didn't want to hear another round of Brace's furious surname evidence.Virginia had such a hard life in her previous life.When he was terrified that the Dark Lord lived in his own manor, when he felt unable to lift his head because of his father's imprisonment, when he suppressed fear and knelt on the ground and kissed the cape of the enemy's robes , while she was imprisoned in the Chamber of Secrets at Malfoy Manor, drained of her magic—so close to him that he didn't even notice.

Since Draco woke up, he has been thinking hard about how to avoid the tragedy of his previous life.The shadow of war always hangs over his heart.The victory of justice does not mean his victory, and knowing the outcome of the war does not mean that the harm caused by the war can be avoided.However, the change of Virginia's surname means her vitality.

No one now knows that Virginia, who is secretly called a slut beauty, is a born Hufflepuff.Not even her mother, Mrs. Conway, or perhaps Mrs. Hebbs, should be called.

When Draco came back to his senses, Blaise concluded with a fairly certain tone, "...so, as long as Pooh's mother is not removed from the family tree, then Pooh's future daughter will be on the wizard birth register of the Ministry of Magic. Must be Crackenthorpe too."

Draco's eyes widened, quickly grasping the point.

***

Virginia felt that Slytherins were not really good people.She has always followed the rules, and tried her best to avoid Malfoy's accident according to her mother's instructions.As a result, Malfoy disappeared on the way to and from get out of class on Monday, but a tall, dark-skinned, raised brow and eyes, a Slytherin boy who was not easy to mess with at first glance, stopped him to make trouble for him.

Blaise: "Miss Crackenthorpe, I think you must be very curious about the reason why I came to you. Can you take the time to chat with me?"

In Virginia's eyes, his pink shirt collar, which was exposed outside the school robe and turned up, clearly showed his identity as a "loafer"; and his shining eyes were particularly frightening, It clearly says "bad intentions".

Virginia took a step back cautiously. She touched the wand in the pocket of her school uniform, but her Levitation Charm couldn't even fly a feather. How could she resist Brace, who was tall and burly?

After a moment's silence, she answered honestly, "I'm not at all curious, sir."

The moment Blaise heard the words and got stuck, Lettis quickly locked on the rescuers in the crowd, "Cedric! Help! Help!"

Blaise's mouth almost twisted in anger at Lettice's yelling.

He tilted his neck, and felt that the collar and cuffs of the shirt were a little prickly. He knew that he had probably used too much of the Stretching Charm at the corner just now, so he subconsciously smoothed his sleeves.

This fell into Virginia's eyes, and immediately something bad happened. She quickly pulled Lettice who hadn't reacted to hide behind Cedric, and complained angrily, "He still wants to beat someone!"

Braston, who was wronged by his sister, wanted to cry but had no tears.

Lettice reacted, and immediately looked at him with contempt, "As a wizard, he wants to beat a girl like a Muggle, it's really disrespectful!"

Virginia's embarrassment was unspeakable, she was not yet conscious of a wizard, so she didn't think of this.It's really just a prelude to fighting, she used it too much when she saw little fat bullies in elementary school.

Prefect Cedric, who became the shield of the two Hufflepuff girls, looked at Blaise with a good temper, "What happened?"

Blaise, who was wronged, was greatly shocked, waved his hand weakly, glanced at Virginia who was still hiding behind Cedric, and walked away in despair.

In the eyes of the "winner", this description is a lost dog.Therefore, the image of Cedric, who drove away the enemy with just one sentence, is extraordinarily tall and glorious.

In the evening, it was time for Cedric to teach the three of them again.After the cram school, the three of them returned to the dormitory inevitably talking about Cedric's handsomeness and gentleness.

Annie blushed and asked, "I don't know if he has a girlfriend."

Lettis sighed deeply, "My cousin had the idea of ​​chasing him earlier, but was stopped by other girls in her dormitory."

"why?"

"Cedric is so good, all the Hufflepuff girls like him, who wants him to have a girlfriend? We have to like him together!"

Virginia felt a little lost suddenly.

Anne resented, "That's not fair, what if Cedric likes some Hufflepuff girl?"

Lettice laughed loudly, "You want to talk about yourself, Anne!"

Virginia was about to laugh, but when she saw Anne's dark complexion, she poked Lettice with her finger.Lettis, who was belatedly aware of Anne's complexion, immediately fell silent.

The atmosphere that followed suddenly became awkward.

It wasn't until Annie got up and went to the bathroom, and there was the sound of rushing water, that Lettice quietly climbed onto Virginia's bed, pouted unhappily, "You're so small."

She only complained about this sentence, as if she had let out a sigh of relief, and forgot about it. She pointed to Virginia's bedside table and snorted, "There is a letter. I remember that I didn't have it when I came back."

Virginia also found it very strange, and the two looked at the pink letter for a long time before finally deciding to open it.

The handwriting on the envelope was ugly and snarky, "Miss Crackenthorpe."

It wasn't until the two of them read the entire letter head to head that Lettice couldn't help but exclaimed, and she looked at Virginia with sparkling eyes, "Oh my God, Virginia, what do you have?" It is a myth among women to be an aunt! Please be my friend forever!"
