"This question might sound rude, but we're you adopted?"
It had taken Olivia the whole meeting to keep herself contained, but before the professor was able to leave, she had to ask.
"Not rude at all, and as a matter of fact, I am."
King had noticed it too, of course, she hadn't said anything, she had a family already and didn't care much about looking for biological relatives.
Evangeline was listening intently, wondering what would go on between them both now. Would they try and connect now that they both realized they were twins or were they both content?
"Don't take this wrong way, but I don't want to get to know you, or find anyone else whom I share blood with. I'm sure that you are a wonderful person, but I've got wonderful siblings and parents already."
Olivia's mood fell, she gave a small nod and tried to remain friendly.
"Of course, uh, thank you for coming by. It was nice to meet you."
And with that, the professor appreciated out of the building with a loud pop.
Evangeline looked at Olivia, wondering what she could say to her to help if anything would help at all.
"You don't need her, you got me, I'll be your sister!"
She got an amused look from her.
"How did you feel when you found out about me?"
It was a normal question, but it still made the teen feel a bit uncomfortable, expressing emotions had never been her strong suit.
"Well, I was just wondering how you would react to knowing I was a witch, which is why I didn't tell you for so long."
It wasn't too much of a lie, she had been scared to know her reaction to it, but it wasn't the whole truth.
"Besides that," Olivia said, sighing a moment later, "I thought you'd be younger actually, they didn't put your age on the papers, all there was, was your name and it said that Petunia and Vernon had given me guardianship over you."
A few moments of silence passed between the two of them.
"How did you feel when you found out you had more family than you thought you did?"
Olivia was curious, she knew neither of them was open with their feelings, but she wanted to try.
"Oh, well I didn't have much time to process it. I had been loc - grounded and told I was being sent away in a matter how hours, I guess I was just wondering what you would be like and if you would like me."
Her voice had gone soft at the end, it was the most vulnerable she had been, that she could remember ever being.
"You do that a lot, start to say something and then change the word or stop talking at once."
Olivia was certain the girl was hiding something from her, she didn't want to pry it out of her, but she also knew it wasn't healthy to keep things like this locked up inside.
"You know you can talk to me about anything,"
"Olivia, there are somethings I can't tell you because it has to do with the wizarding world, and you wouldn't understand it all."
"I know,"
The two didn't speak much after that, only a bit about what to have for dinner.
