Getting On His Good Side
Hermione watched out the window as Severus raked the leaves into a small pile. He worked along Hermione's father, who was raking leaves as well.
"Hermione, that was nice of Severus to offer his help with the yard work. I know your father really appreciates it," Hermione's mum said.
"He's happy to help," Hermione responded. "Severus will do anything to get in Dad's good graces."
Mrs. Granger chuckled. "Your father has his reasons."
"Of course," Hermione replied. She continued to watch Severus work. He'd have to rake a lot of leaves in order to get in her father's good graces.
