HP: I’m working on redemption at Hogwarts

The neat and orderly bedroom doesn't have much life flavor, maybe it's because we just moved in. Astoria leaned quietly on the sofa, an atmosphere of loneliness and silence filled the air.

Finally, Astoria moved. She slowly stood up and opened the bedroom door aimlessly, as if she wanted to try to integrate into the atmosphere of the family.

The castle hall was bustling with activity, and the sound of laughter and laughter was completely different from the silence that Astoria was experiencing. She cautiously approached the corner of the wall, slightly sticking her head out and looking down. In the center of the ballroom was the host of this birthday party, her sister Daphne Greengrass.

She stared motionlessly at Daphne who was surrounded by everyone in the center, her eyes couldn't tell whether it was envy or longing.

Suddenly, Astoria's gaze accidentally fell into a pair of gray-blue eyes. Its owner was looking at Astoria suspiciously.

Astoria immediately squatted down and hid with her back against the wall. Her breathing was rapid and her expression was a little panicked. Thinking of her father's previous warnings and instructions to her, she just hoped that she had not been discovered just now, and soon returned to her lonely bedroom again.

"Draco, Draco?"

In the banquet hall, Pansy found that Draco seemed to be staring upstairs in a daze, not even hearing what his friends were talking about, and waved his hand in front of his eyes.

"Huh?" Draco finally came to his senses, but his thoughts seemed to still be stuck on the girl with blond curly hair he just saw staring at him blankly like a doll.

"What were you looking at just now? You were so fascinated -"

"By the way, Daphne, are you sure all the guests are in the banquet hall?"

Draco interrupted Pansy directly, staring directly at Daphne and asking. His strange stubbornness caused Theodore and Zabini, who were quietly doing their own thing, to divert their attention and look at Draco with confused expressions.

"Um... they are indeed here. Is there any problem?"

Draco's question confused Daphne. She casually glanced at the banquet, saw that almost all the guests were there, and answered Draco nervously.

"It's nothing, maybe I'm dazzled."

Draco raised a programmed smile, shook his head casually, and shook the golden image out of his mind.

His father had taught him that he should maintain the gentlemanliness and elegance of a pure-blood nobleman no matter where he was, and it was not what he should do to get entangled in a blond girl whom he could barely see clearly.

"Daphne, this is a gift I specially selected for you. I hope you like it." Draco showed a standard smile and handed a small and exquisite gift box to Daphne.

Daphne took it with satisfaction, looked at Draco, and immediately opened it eagerly. When she saw the shining emerald necklace inside, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"Draco, how did you know I wanted this?"

"I'm so sorry. Maybe I overheard your girls' secret in the Slytherin lounge?" After receiving Daphne's satisfactory reaction, Draco couldn't help but show a little proud expression, his head held high, his face Proud and contented.

"Oh! Draco, you are so kind. This makes our gifts so insincere!" Zabini raised his hand and put his arm around Draco's shoulders, raised his eyebrows, and said in a mocking tone without politeness. Draco.

"Of course not, you are my friends, I will love any gift!"

Although they were friends, Daphne's expression when she spoke was obviously a little cautious to please, as if she couldn't tell whether the two were jokingly teasing each other, or whether they were really sarcastic.

Theodore, who was silent in the corner, hated these unnecessary socializing and gatherings even more...

Not so much a friend? It's better to say it's a means of winning over the family!

Theodore complained silently in his heart, repeating this extremely clear fact.

……

……

"Daphne, this is your sister, you should..."

"Why is she here? Why is she here? I don't welcome her!" Under the dim light, her father patiently comforted Daphne's excitement and anger. Everything here was very strange to Astoria, and she was afraid. He stayed in the corner, not daring to make a sound.

"I'm telling you, don't mess with me, and stay quietly in the corner and survive like this..."

These were the last words Daphne warned her. Before Astoria could say anything, Daphne turned around and slammed the door without mercy. The smoke of the initial noise and quarrel seemed to still linger in the air. She silently took out her wand and tightened the heavy curtains, plunging the entire bedroom into darkness again.

Astoria slowly slid down the wall and huddled helplessly against the wall on the carpet. She clutched the wand in her arms tightly in her hands. Tears rushed out unconsciously, sliding down the bridge of her nose, and finally fell into big tears. His teardrops hit the ground hard.

"Mom, I miss you so much..."
