"Reizei. Are you Asian?"

Ashika was in badmood, she can't eat her dinner pleasantly, not because some of Slytherin students staring at her curiously like they are never met an Japanese people, probably not. Not also because some of fools decided to mocking and insult Severus Snape's halfblood status. No. It's because there is no rice.

There. Is. No. Freaking. Rice. In. The. Table.

No. Rice.

Damn western peoples with their bloody pie and breads. What the hell.

She can't even called this is a dinner if there's no rice.

How can I survive living without eating rice?

But the dessert is amazing. Especially chocolate pudding, it's magnificent. The dessert boosting her mood instantly.

And then this bratty pureblood kid asked her a question with an obvious answer.

Her appearance is Asian enough damn it. Straight black hair, dark brown eyes, sharp nose, small lips, and small face.

Still. Ashika answered it. "Yes and no..."

Ashika sighed. "Half Japanese-half British."

The first year blond kid with blue eyes smirking at her. "Hm, okay, I'm Evan Rosier by the way."

Ashika glance briefly at him, uninterested, then continue to eating her lovely chocolate pudding.

Rosier keep staring. "Well?"

"...what?"

Rosier sneered. "You're not going to explain about your family? Another Halfblood like Snape? Or are you a mudblood?"

Ashika can feel some of the Slytherin students near them pretending to act uninterested in their conversations, some of them even shamelessly eavesdropping.

Tch. Here we go.

Ashika sniffed and sneered back. "If you don't know anything about Japanese magical families then stop talking to me with awful manners and disgraceful behaviour."

And then Ashika sighed dramatically. "Oh Kami-sama help me, I can't talk to people who makes fool of themselves and need educated themselves first. Oh Kami-sama..."

There was some nervous laughter and some snorts, eyes gleaming and calculating, watched their exchange with interest.

Rosier gaped then flushing in anger and embarrassment.

Ashika smirking mockingly at him. Poor kid, pick wrong target.

Ashika continue to eat her lovely dessert.

Mission completed.

Now some of them actually believe she is from some Japanese pureblood magical family. She doesn't even have to answer her blood status. Stupid wizards. All she need to act mighty and haughty like them then they think she is also a pureblood kid.

Stupid pureblood kids.

But Ashika know that her snobbish act cannot stall them to back off forever. Eventually they'll know about her blood status and she can't live peacefully.

Kuso.
