Severus was staring out of the window again. Minerva sighed. She knew of his pain, she had seen him struggle. She had seen him being ripped apart by Potter, Black on one and Malfoy on the other side. She had watched as he lost his only friend, unable to help him, when he finally snapped. She knew Lily had blamed him… when it was Potter and Black that had attacked him earlier and exhausted him emotionally.
She knew he had had no choice but to hate Harry – she knew every time he saw him, he was being ripped apart anew.
