Paper cranes fly away, lilies bloom

The OWL exam was not disturbed by the Mudblood incident, and it was still going on one by one.

This evening, Snape was in his pajamas, standing in front of the portrait at the entrance to the Gryffindor common room.

A Gryffindor girl climbed out of the portrait, saw Snape at the door, and frowned: "You Slytherin, what are you doing here?"

"I'm looking for Lily...can you tell Lily that I'm looking for her..."

The girl nodded reluctantly and went in.Came out again a few minutes later: "Lily knew it was you, she said she wouldn't come out."

Snape was taken aback, and then said: "Then please go again and tell her to let her out for a while, otherwise I will sleep here.

Five minutes later, Lily stood in front of Snape, who bowed his head in frustration, in her nightgown.

"sorry."

"I do not want to hear."

"sorry!"

"Don't worry! I came out when Mary said you threatened to sleep here."

"I was going to sleep here... I was... I really was... I never meant to call you a Mudblood, I just..."

"You slipped the tongue! Right!" Lily's voice was devoid of sympathy. "It's too late. I've been looking for excuses to forgive you for years. My friends don't understand how I can talk to you. You and your Help little Death Eater friends—look, you don't deny it! You don't deny what you're up to! You can't wait to follow You-Know-Who, can you?" After speaking, Lily glanced sideways at Snape's Left arm, watching him hold the left forearm with his right hand under her gaze.

Snape opened his mouth as if to say something, but shut it tightly again.

"I can't pretend anymore, you chose your way, I chose mine." Lily said coldly

"No—look, I didn't mean to…"

"—Call me a Mudblood? But you call every one of my friends a Mudblood, Severus, and what difference does it make me to you?"

He was still desperately looking for an excuse, but Lily looked at him contemptuously, and then crawled back...

The next morning.

Snape walked into the library with the basic potions book, ready to quietly review the last subject - Potions.

He found a table, put the book on it, took out a quill, wrote and drew on the book, waved his wand after a while, summoned a few pieces of parchment, and put them Grab it from the air and write something on it.

About an hour later Snape got up to go to dinner, got up slowly, took his book and walked out of the library, and—

"boom!"

He collided with a girl walking from the side.His "Advanced Potion Making" dropped.He was about to pick it up, but found that the girl was none other than Lily.

"Lily..." he called softly.

"Oh. It's you, Snape." Lily said coldly, "You bumped into me, and your book fell." After finishing speaking, she picked up the book and threw it at Snape .

The book hit Snape, bounced off, and spread across the title page.Impressively written on it: This book belongs to the Half-Blood Prince.

Lily froze for a moment, and said, "Snape...you..." She stared at Snape with wide eyes, her mouth moved, as if she wanted to say something more, but she turned around immediately, quickly left.
