"Severus!"
Petunia ran on the hillside with a box in her arms. A dark figure heard her voice and came out of the tree hole.
Today is the 30th day of Petunia's friendship with the little wizard Snape. Petunia specially took out all the money she saved to buy a cake.
"What is this?"
Little Snape frowned, as if he had seen it for the first time. Petunia looked at him strangely.
"Strawberry cake."
Petunia rummaged and found that she had forgotten her fork.
"oh no."
Petunia sighed, then dug a piece of cake with her fingers and handed it to Snape's mouth.
"I've washed my hands."
Snape's eyes widened, as if in disbelief, and he shook his head violently.
Petunia was unconvinced and stretched out her fingers covered with cream again. Snape stared at the cream for a long time before he bent his head and licked it.
So sweet.
It's very different from the hard French bread in his family.
"Is it delicious?"
Petunia smiled and dug a piece into her mouth. She didn't seem to know that the finger had just been licked by Snape.
"What are you doing? Do you want me to feed you again?"
Snape shook his head quickly and held the cake with his fingers like her.
No one knows that the most overbearing and lonely children in this block have their world under a big tree.
Until that day, an owl led a group of people in robes and knocked on the door of Evans's house. The Evans were taken into the house by them, while Lily took penny and ran under the tree.
"Look, petunia!"
Lily held out her little hand and saw a flower in the palm of her hand.
Of course Petunia knew what it was. She clenched her fist and sank her nails into the palm of her hand. Petunia came to the shadow in the tree hole. Snape was looking at them with a smile. To be exact, he was looking at lily.
Could he smile because Lily was also a wizard?
Lily is the same as him, but she is different.
"I will tell mom, lily, you're a monster!"
Petunia is angry with her, and it's like being angry with herself. She hates that her wizard friend who only belongs to her is robbed by lily.
Lily was frightened by the abnormal petunia and ran to the top of the slope. Snape had already drilled a hole in the tree and was waiting to talk to Lily.
"Come here, Lily!"
Petunia watched their distance gradually shorten and shouted anxiously, but she looked at him with a slight anger. Petunia stopped until they stood side by side. She turned and ran frantically.
Petunia suddenly remembered that when they first met, Snape looked disappointed to see that she was a Muggle.
Maybe he didn't want to make friends with Muggles.
Petunia thought, and tears kept falling.
She has nothing, whether it's a sister or a friend.
Only she was squeezed out because she was a Muggle.

Lily is also a wizard. Like Severus, I am the strange one in their eyes. I envy her, so I called her monster.
And I'm like a monster.
But I'm not going to apologize. After all, Lily will never forgive someone easily because of a few apologies.
and... She doesn't need me anyway. She has Severus.
Severus doesn't need me anymore. He has lily.
What about me?
Petunia
Petunia covered her calendar book and hid under the quilt with tears in her eyes. She turned off the lamp and looked at Lily's bed She didn't come back
