happy life?strange

The rain outside the window has gradually diminished, and the faint light sees through the thick clouds.

"Sev, why didn't you finish it all?" Aunt Thompson's brother, now Severus' grandfather, stared at him.Severus sat at the dining table, looking weakly at the breakfast on the table, the deliciously fried bacon, a stack of burnt toast, and a thick avocado and thick butter next to it, a large bowl Fresh salad that can be squeezed out of water, a large glass of white milk... so much every time, these foods are enough for him to eat for two days.

"Grandpa, I really can't eat so much."

"No, look at how thin you have become. How can you not eat?" Severus is now a young man who is almost 20 years old, tall and thin, and his body always has a thin feeling like a flower blooming after it fades .No matter how grandpa forced him to eat more food, he could secretly press his alarm clock so that he could have more sleep.Severus' face was always pale and calm, and his body was always so lifeless. His lazy appearance made Grandpa feel bad.What Grandpa wanted to see was Severus running and playing with his friends full of energy instead of holding a book and looking down at it all day long.

Thinking of seeing Severus back then, Grandpa felt uncomfortable again.

It was an ordinary afternoon in Australia. The clean sunshine brought a hot and steaming atmosphere. The fat and fat koalas with gray fur were sleeping comfortably on the eucalyptus trees. The fragrance and the faint smell of eucalyptus, the sky is so blue and pure, it makes people want to cry. Grandpa is sitting under the house and watching the cattle and sheep mixed with kangaroos in the distance. The pastures in Australia are more leisurely. , On large tracts of grassland, cattle and sheep freely walk from one pool to another pool slowly, unrestrained.The pure blue reflects the pure red to the extreme sunset, the flies around the house are flying happily, and the large groups of lizards are like the still life in the oil painting, and they are like all kinds of stones lying on the seashore to bask in the sun. looking at the sun.

On such an ordinary evening in Australia, a priest-like man stood in front of him with a frail black-haired child.At first he didn't recognize the sickly skinny poor kid as Severus Snape.Probably because of the exhaustion of the long-distance travel, the child fainted in the man's arms after calling out to him softly.I was full of anger, my head was full of reprimands, I had imagined the scene after meeting so many times, but after seeing this scene, all of them disappeared, only the strong uncontrollable feeling for this child remained. Distressed.

After putting the poor child who was so light and worryingly curled up unconsciously on the bed, watching the man take out a bottle of the amazingly abundant potion from the big black box, and pry open the skinny child's body. After pouring down the cracked and peeling mouth, Grandpa Thompson pulled the man out of the room where Severus was resting, then pointed at the man, that is, Father Cliff, and scolded him for more than half an hour.

Father Cliff did not refute. After all, he was also wrong. He originally thought that the sea navigation should be relatively stable and would not add too much burden to Severus' weak body.Who knew that this time the route encountered a storm that happened once in a hundred years, and the ship was pitching and heaving helplessly on the sea. Severus was not in good health, and after the bumping, he vomited and couldn't eat, except to drink medicine. In addition, he basically couldn't eat anything, and he was completely emaciated.Then coupled with Australia's unique hot and sometimes dry desert-like climate, it made Severus, who was already extremely weak, unable to hold on.

After that, under the careful care of Father Cliff and Grandpa Thompson, Severus finally got better with the freshest milk he drank every day.Afterwards, the two adults discussed with the child who could only lie on the bed behind their backs, to see who would be more suitable to take care of him in the future.The two adults were worried about this child. Father Cliff was going to his new parish in the United States, and the school that Severus applied for was far from the church he was in. For the sake of Severus' future studies and life, Grandpa Thompson decided to watch over the disobedient one, leaving his sister heartbroken at the end and thinking about the child until he passed away.

Originally, Severus' idea was to come to Australia to pay homage to Aunt Thompson, and then see how Grandpa Thompson is doing. He planned to transfer Aunt Thompson's inheritance to Grandpa Thompson and give him a large sum of money to find someone to take care of Grandpa. After that, he went to the United States with Father Cliff to study in a good school that the priest had helped him apply for.After hearing Severus' thoughts, Grandpa Thompson was so angry that he couldn't help but roared at the child who could just sit up in front of him and whose face was as pale as paper, and then flushed and rushed out of the room.

Within a few days of being furious, Grandpa Thompson entrusted the management of the ranch to others. He had already made up his mind to look at this stubborn child, this... so skinny, that he couldn't stop his heartache and sour eyes. .So Grandpa Thompson came to America with Father Cliff and Severus.

It has been so many years in a blink of an eye, and this child is still so thin and weak no matter how he is raised, he cannot do without medicine all day long, and he is prone to get sick when the weather changes.Even when girls invite him to hang out, he mostly refuses.Seeing him smiling every day and trying not to cause trouble to others, grandpa couldn't help but sulk, and could only force him to eat more and sleep more with a straight face.

"Grandpa, I really can't eat anymore. I have an appointment with Robert today, and I will be late if I don't go out. Grandpa." Originally, Severus didn't have a big appetite, so he finally ate a little and stopped eating. I can't hold it anymore.

"No, at least drink the milk." Grandpa watched Severus drink the milk with a bitter face and continued to mutter loudly, "What kind of porridge do you drink all day, how can you be full? I said Severus , now it's a holiday, you have to throw away the alarm clock for me, and you are not allowed to get up early in the morning, you know?"

Severus was really helpless, he knew that if he didn't agree, Grandpa would definitely keep nagging in his ear until he surrendered.

"Grandpa, I'm going out. I may come back later today, so you don't have to wait for me."

"Stinky boy, don't go home late, don't eat late. Look, it's still raining outside, why are you wearing this lightly? You're trying to be brave even though you're not in good health. Bring me your coat. Otherwise, don't expect me to take care of you when you're sick. You." Grandpa blew his beard and stared.

Severus smiled, picked up his coat and draped it over his body.The rain has basically stopped, and the transparent water droplets hanging on the green leaves are very cute.

They drove Robert and Huxley to the shopping mall near the university, and then the three of them sat on the big and comfortable sofa in the coffee shop.Seeing that Severus ordered a glass of lemonade, Robert shook his head, called the waiter, and replaced the lemonade with a glass of milk.Severus looked at the white milk and could only cover his forehead. Every day his grandfather forced him to drink milk, and he was afraid of milk even now.

Robert looked at Severus and frowned beautifully, "Are you drinking the potion I gave you every day?"

Severus smiled and nodded, "Drink it every day, thank you for always providing me with potions."

Robert snorted, looked at Severus' obvious protruding collarbone and thin face, pursed his lips and made a cold face without answering.

Huxley acted foolishly, "Didn't you see that Robert was so nervous about you, and when your potion was about to run out, I locked myself in the potion room to help you make potions. During that time, I wanted to see you." Can't see him."

Severus smiled happily "Are you jealous?"

"Of course I'm jealous, obviously I'm cuter than the cauldron and the potion, right, Robert." Huxley shamelessly asked Robert, who had already turned black.

"I think you would be cuter if you were put into a cauldron and boiled into a potion." Robert gritted his teeth and replied.

Robert took out a big box and pushed it in front of Severus, "This is the amount for this month, I believe you should be able to remember when to take it with your brain capacity." And he frowned "You know Has anyone been looking for you in the past two years?"

"Me? Who will look for me?" Severus was puzzled. "Besides, it's been such a long time, why did someone suddenly come looking for me?"

"It's the British side. They have been looking for you for several years. According to my father, it seems that the high-level people in the magic world are looking for you." Huxley looked at Severus carefully. "You shouldn't have offended anyone. It seems that they are looking for you." It's urgent. But don't worry, with our family's status in France, they can't force us to tell you where you are."

"Impossible, I have no contact with the wizarding world. Why don't you tell me, when will the house be finished?" Severus shook his head. England seems to be a dull dream so far away that it can never be touched again. in the name only.

Robert and Huxley had long planned to go to Muggle universities to continue their studies after graduating from the magic school. After the introduction of Muggle technology to the British wizarding world, France was also shaken. Some young wizards also began to think about it. Learn more about Muggle development.Robert can be said to be the pride of the Sidonia family. After he proposed to study in the United States, his mother cried a few times in her arms and asked him to contact him every day. His father went out very proudly to show off his son to other nobles. How broad is his vision, while Robert's brother told his dearest brother, if the money is not enough, just ask him for it.

Huxley put forward a simpler reason for going to university. He said that he was afraid that Robert would be snatched away by someone else when he went to the United States... This reason made the Châteleros want to pack him up and send him to the United States immediately.

Because of the connection with Severus, with Severus' help, they applied to the same university.This time, they came to the United States just to give Severus potions and buy some reference books. They will officially become Severus' classmates after the decoration of the house in the United States is completed and the new semester starts.

It was dusk, and the tired bird had already returned to its nest. After saying goodbye to the two, Severus stopped by the nearby supermarket to buy some things. He couldn't help shivering due to the coolness, and coughed for a while, until he couldn't even stand up.Suddenly, someone carefully supported him as if protecting the most fragile crystal, and asked anxiously, "Are you okay?"

"Are you ok?"

"How are you?"

--- There used to be thousands of words, no matter how much anger and dissatisfaction once was pregnant, no matter how painful the heart was once, when we finally meet, there is only one sentence

---"How are you?"
