"Siphronia. Come on. It was just a joke." Severus laughed.
"To even come up with such a evil trick makes me wonder if you really would do such a thing."
"I wouldn't." He tried to assure, but that was pointless.
Siphronia opened the bathroom door, "Don't lie to me. If you don't want me anymore, just say so." She locked herself back into the tiny little bathroom. Crying, unable to stop. She was pissed off. And even more so, she was upset.
"Bombardo!" The door blew to pieces.
"Look. I said I was sorry. Isn't that enough for you women?"
"Sorry is just a word. You have to mean it! It takes more than words to mend! Don't you men understand that?" Siphronia bawled.
Severus stood aloofly, "Calm down."
"I can't! What you did was cruel and heartless. How do you expect me to forgive you like it was nothing?" Siphronia buried her face in her hands, trying to hide herself from his sight, this has to be the first time he has ever made her cry.
"All these years, I have put up with you insulting me. Fighting me. Pushing me. To simply put it, I have had enough!" Siphronia cried.
"Your overreacting." Snape folding his arms, not regretting any of it, " If you are going to act like a child, then I am going to treat you like one. You have detention, meet me at the Dungeons at 10PM, you will scrub the floors without your wand."
Severus walked off, feeling a sense of pride but now thinking of something to make up for it. Flowers? Chocolates? A painting? Maybe some new robes? None of that would work, Siphronia isn't the materialistic type, not like Bellatrix who only stayed with him for the gifts. What would fix this? He didn't regret pulling this prank, but he did sympathize. His woman was very fragile, she was not very tough, even the thought of being alone frightened her to death……What to do…..What to do……
